It’s not a bad question. But the more difficult questions is, what impediments are in my own person, psychology, history and upbringing, in my current life situation, that cause me to waste time?
The question “how much time are you wasting”, isn’t a question that’s going to charge much about the situation, it may, but unlikely.. most people waste a whole lot of time, they know it well, and that there’s something they’d prefer to do (craft hobby whatever), than waste time. But they don’t, why?
There is as it were an invisible yet very concrete wall, between them and their potential, it takes an enormous amount of patience and gentleness (of the spirit, not wishy washy) continual suffering and striving and probably most importantly hope that the wall will fall, that time will open up for you, that the weight of not doing what you’re potentially called to, will fall away… but maybe if all that’s happening, even if on the surface you’re “wasting time”, you’re not, go easy on yourself, and hope in the present.
We don’t have an iron will, some are more fortuitous to have had the blessings and grace, to do that thing in the present which, after the fact they can look back and say, today’s time was well spent. Others must suffer the pain of struggling, and desiring that kind of state. They don’t realise the suffering is a blessed state itself.
And no, I’m not taking about those people who don’t even have an awareness that they are wasting time, and I’m not making an excuse for people who are “time wasters” (which are related to the former), I’m talking about those people who don’t know there’s an invisible wall and it’s not because they are lazy (which only reinforces the wall with guilt).
Anyways.
