F*ck That! - Value Your Time and Others Will Too

You have value. You are unique and talented. There's no one like you and your time, and efforts, should be valued by others. Your time has value and should be treated like a commodity.

We've all just did something to appease someone because it was easier to just do it that to explain why you don't want to do that for them. Or, we've been in relationships where you feel like you are the only one holding on. Maybe you even made your own life harder in order to make someone else's life a little bit easier. Why do we do this to ourselves?

Most times, we look back on the situation after the fact, and wonder, what asshole possessed us to waste our time on people who didn't even give a single shit. I mean, you weren't looking for a parade, but damn, a heartfelt 'thank you' would've been nice.

Well, I got some hard advice for you: Don't do it! Yeah, for real! Don't devalue your time by wasting it on people who don't give a fuck about you. Your time is valuable and should be treated as such.

This concept can be a challenge to work into your life especially if you feel the need to help your fellow humans. You're not going to start moonwalking out of rooms with your middle fingers hoisted anytime someone asks you for help. You just have to be more stingy with your time.

Your time is you. Yes, your little pieces of time are parts of you. There is only so much to go around, it's not infinite. When you spend your time doing things for other people, you are handing over parts of you because you give a fuck about them. So, why would you give parts of you (your time) to people, or projects, who don't give a fuck about you? Nah, fuck that noise.

Once you start valuing your own time, others will take note and understand that you are valuable. So, that friend that won't text back, stop catering to them. Your cousin that only calls you when they need something, shut that shit down. Your time is valuable and only give it to people who see value in you.

Try it out. You will notice that not only will others value you more, but the positive thinking and practice will bleed into other parts of your life. Give a fuck about your time and others will give a fuck about you.
