How to gain control of your free time?
Today as I was waiting for JQ to meet me, I suddenly got 30min of free time, I don't know what to do with it.
First thought was to find a cafe and sit down, then I think I don't want to get another drink (especially with sugar). So I roam a bit and caught sight of a stationery shop so I made my way in there to look around. I didn't have anything that I urgently need, I was just browsing around.
I wasted my 30min.
Now, let's brainstorm a bit and see what are the things that I can do if I have small pockets of time again!
Scenario:
30min of waiting time.
1) Sit down in a cafe and read
Read what? Let's be specific, so that I don't fall into my default of IG/FB.
- Check my personal emails
- Read the ebook that I happen to be reading at that time
2) Shop the things that I need
Problem is I don't remember them. So I need to keep a list of things that I want to buy, so when the free time arises I can quickly refer to it!
3) Browse in a book store or library
If there is a book store or library, I can go it there to look around. But first, I need to know if there is a book store or library in the mall, and a quick search could do the job.
That's all for now!
At this point while I'm drafting this list, I realised that above ideas do not help with my long term goals. So it is not good enough.
