Spending time in damaging relationships — whether its parents, partner or friends, put yourself first. Trying to please everyone — by doing meaningless favors, making decisions based on other’s opinion, etc. Pursuing a career that you don’t care about — to make your parents happy or to fit into society. Procrastination — waiting for the day when you will finally start crushing your goals. Avoiding pain — not taking risks, staying in your comfort zone, not working enough, etc. Unconsciously watching Tv, movies, social media — trying to escape the reality of your life. Never growing as a person, realizing your potential — just being okay with a mediocre you. You wouldn’t give away your money for free, then why do you give away your time — giving it away to people you don’t like. Working a 9–5 job that you hate but never making efforts to get out of it. Above all, not pursuing true joy and fulfillment — instead, settling for an okay life.
