Creating more time

Ah, the eternal quest for saving time! We all have our own little tricks up our sleeves. So, let’s dive into some of the things I don’t waste my time on:

First and foremost, I don’t even attempt to mate socks. It’s like trying to solve a never-ending puzzle with a missing piece. Instead, I embrace the chaos and proudly wear mismatched socks as a fashion statement. Who needs coordination when you can have creativity?

And speaking of laundry woes, folding clothes and ironing? Nope, not in my vocabulary. I’ve mastered the art of the “laundry mountain” technique where everything is neatly piled until it eventually reaches its destination: either straight onto my body or back into the washing machine.

Now, when it comes to cooking, let’s just say that my stove feels rather neglected. Unless something sounds irresistibly delicious or someone else is doing the culinary magic, I happily just grab a piece of fruit or veggies. Life’s too short to spend hours slaving away in the kitchen, and keeping it simple is healthier anyway.

TV. The tempting allure of binge-watching. You might as well be efficient about it. I prefer the art of multitasking, blending work, and entertainment together. Who needs designated “TV time” when you can conquer your to-do list while catching up on your favorite shows? Oddly enough, this type of multitasking helps keep me focused.

And let’s not forget our furry and feathered friends. While some pet owners spend their days doling out kibbles and pellets, I prefer a more hands-off approach. My dogs, cat, chickens, ducks, and geese have become self-regulating little beings who know how to help themselves when hunger strikes. It saves me from multiple feeding sessions throughout the day, and they are less aggressive with each other when food is always available. Healthier, too. I’ll go into more detail on our systems in a later post.

Grocery shopping. Who needs to push a cart around a store, dodging other shoppers and resisting the urge to impulse-buy heaps of chocolate? Not me! I’ve discovered the magical world of online grocery shopping. From the comfort of my own couch, I can browse through virtual aisles and have my groceries delivered right to my doorstep or ready for pickup. It’s a budget-friendly and time-saving game-changer.

Now, brace yourself for this one: I don’t shower every single day. Before you recoil in horror, let me explain. Research shows that daily showers might not be as necessary as we once thought (unless you’re a professional mud wrestler or have an unhealthy obsession with cheese). Skipping a shower here and there doesn’t make you dirty; it just gives you an extra five minutes of blissful slumber in the morning.

But wait, there’s more! Coffee lovers might raise an eyebrow at this next revelation—I don’t drink coffee. Gasp! Shocking, I know. But hear me out: caffeine seems to have lost its superpowers on my tired little body. It turns out that not everyone is wired (pun intended) for coffee’s energizing effects all day long. So, instead of sipping on java that has about as much impact on me as a feather pillow fight, I find other ways to perk up and kickstart my mornings. I’ll include those in a later post as well.

So there you have it—some unconventional time-saving choices that may make you laugh or scratch your head in confusion. Saving time is all about finding clever shortcuts and embracing what works for us individually.

So there you have it – some of my time-saving secrets revealed! I’ll post additional tips as I remember them. Stay efficient and embrace your inner lazy genius!
