Do you feel overwhelmed and tired? Is there not enough time in the day for you?Maybe its time to step back and take a look at what is really important in your life. This article explores different ways to put some more time in your life. Stress free time, quality time for you to spend on yourself, your family or friends.
Sometimes ignorance can be bliss. Don't get me wrong. I'm not talking about being uneducated or stupid. Learn and read, watch the news. Once, twice a day. However, do you really need to have CNN streaming in the background twenty four hours a day. Do you need screen in screen on your television? What I am saying is do we have to know everything all the time? When is too much knowledge too much? Can a person have too much useless information? Do we need to know all about the Octomom's new house? Or exactly what is going on with Michael Jackson's doctors.
Can you remember when there were no computers? No cellphones or Ipods. A simpler time. When a friend called you and you were not home, if they really wanted to talk to you, if it was urgent they called back. No big deal. Or maybe you had an answering machine. The friend would leave a message. And when you had time you would call them back. Sounds simple right? Kind of nice.
Now, however there is no time to take. Because when you are on the phone talking or texting, bleep,bleep, call waiting comes on telling you there is someone waiting for you, so you put the person you are talking to on hold and talk to the person that was waiting. Now someone else is waiting. For you and your precious time. Probably you have a cellphone, and it's ringing too. If you don't answer these calls they go to voice mail and you will have a million messages to sift through. Messages that you listen to, or save, or delete. This takes up more of your valuable times Ask yourself this, do I need all this stuff? Do I need to be available twenty four hours a day? I am not the president. I can not think of one reason outside of a medical emergency why anyone would need to be available during day to day life. If it's not an emergency call me back. Now when people call a phone and get a busy signal they get mad. They get an attitude like its not fair or something.
There are hundreds and hundreds of social networking sites on the Internet. Sites where people post all the details of their lives. So other people can do what exactly? I'm not sure, but we have this need to know. I believe I do not have to know everything about everybody. I would like to keep some things a mystery.
So we should just stop. Stop texting, typing, calling, tweeting, and emailing and spend some time with our families and friends. In person, face to face. Go for a walk. Get some kind of exercise. Kind of like the WII system, only with real people and fresh air. Maybe the less information we stuff into our brains, the more time we will have for our lives.
你是否不知所措，感觉很疲倦？是否时间总也不够用？或许是该退后一步，想想你的生命中什么是最重要的了。这篇文章探讨了不同的方法来，讲述怎样让你的生命中拥有更多的时间。强调将你的自由时间，高质量的时间花费在你自己身上，你的亲人或者朋友身上。
有时候，无知也是一种福气。不要误解我。我不是在讲不受教育或者变笨。学习，读书，看新闻。一天一次，两次。但是，你是否真的需要CNN（美国有线新闻网络）一天24小时在你耳边讲个不停？ 你是否需要一直盯着电视机屏幕？我是说，我们真的需要知道所有的事情么？什么时候太多的知识变得太多？一个人能不能拥有太多毫无意义的信息？我们有必要知道八胞胎母亲的新房子长什么样吗？有必要知道迈克尔·杰克逊的医生怎么了吗？
你是否记得那没有电脑的时光？没有手机，没有Ipods （苹果播放器）.一种更加简单的生活方式。一个朋友打电话给你，可是你不在家，如果他们真的想和你说话，或者事情紧急，他们会再打电话过来。没什么大不了的。也许你有个电话应答机。你的朋友可以留言。你会在空闲的时候给他们回电。听起来简单吧？很好的生活模式。
但是现在，没有那么多闲暇时间了。因为你总是电话打个不停，要么就在发短信，嘀嘀，嘀嘀，呼叫等待告诉你有人在给你打电话，所以你让正在和你通话的那个人进入等待，然后接上那个正在给你打电话的人。现在，另外一个人又在等你和他继续通话了。大概你有个手机，它又响了。如果你不接这些电话，他们就给你发语音邮件，你就有会收到上百万条的信息。你听这些信息，保存或者删除它们。这些都占据了你很多宝贵的时间。问问你自己，我真的需要这些吗？我真的需要每天24小时随叫随到吗？我又不是总统。除了医疗紧急情况以外，我很难编出一条理由为什么人们每天都需要随时到位，随叫随到？现在，人们打电话时如果听到的是忙音，就会变的抓狂。他们会想这不公平阿等等之类的。
因特网上有千万种各式各样的社交网站。人们把他们生活的点点滴滴都发布在网上。以便其它人可以依葫芦画瓢的照着做吗？我不太确定，但是我们必须明白，我们没必要知道每个人的每一件事。我情愿让有些东西看起来有点神秘。
所以我们应该停下来。停止发短信，打字，打电话，电话录音和电邮。多花点时间和家人、朋友呆在一起。个人的，面对面的。去散散步。做一些运动。有点像WII 系统里 （电视游戏机Wii的操作系统）,只有真人和新鲜的空气。也许我们少往脑子里塞点东西，我们的生活中就会有更多的时间。
