Time Saved is Time Earned too......


Back in the mood to share some of my thoughts that derive out of my experiences I have something to pen down today….

As we all have heard about the popular phrase…"A Penny Saved in a penny earned" I must admit that "Time Saved is Time Earned too"…

Might be the crazy lazy mind is in a mood to enjoy the philosophical quotes today for when I wanted to share my tiny experience or learning one other Tamil quote struck my mind that I could relate my experience…

Veetai Katti paar, Kalyanathai seithu paar …. Meaning to learn about any challenge first do it self and then speak…. Ie.. "It is only when you build a house on your own or host a marriage event on your own, do you then realize about the nitty gritty of it"

As was the case with me today…I too have heard lot lot lot times from my parents asking to wake up early in the morning and start a bright day…although thoughtfully I knew that was right, never realized the real benefit as I was really lazy to wake up early unless it was necessary…

And then the aftermath of waking up late…end up rushing in all the work you do to catch up with time and keep cribbing that no time left , no time left to relax or do something interesting….in my case I landed in a horrible day every time I woke up late …

With my routine of cooking and cleaning , or rather mainly focused at the household chores, made my work monotonous and irritating with no time being left for relaxing or doing something interesting…

Everyday I used to wake up late, first start with hurriedly sweeping the entire house, I could not afford to skip it as my mind though lazy was habituated to some good practices taught by my mom, then make breakfast, wash utensils, cook lunch, wash utensils, clean, refresh, cook dinner and clean up the kitchen again, so on then finally to bed….uff..I used to think..what life is this what am I doing and then cribbing self within , lay stressed and earn nothing other than depression…

Finally after several attempts to change myself, this crazy lazy mind saw a very bright morning today….It was a tough battle, however I was determined and thanks to my eyes for they co-operated as well and I was awake earlier that the sun ;) ..he was just rising laying around his golden rays…

What a beauty…. I Swept the house with ease and peace…had time for a cup of tea…then the breakfast…had time to glance through the news  paper or relax for a while…

Surfed through the web for interesting recipes…wonder…delicious lunch got ready well in advance…early lunch and now so much of time earned to do what I like….how amazing is that? …

Little  time saved  out of my sleep earned me much more time than expected and rewarded me too with  a bright day...

Hence I  was smiling within thinking.."Time Saved is Time Earned" and I really had to experience it self to get the crux of the philosophy hidden within…

Cheers,
Akshatha
