What was your topmost time investment and worst time-waster in the last 12 months?

--

My best time investment was investing in my discipline by training to wake up at the same time in the morning and doing morning exercise on alarm.

My most horrible time waster was watching Netflix. Since the past few months, I've canceled it, and now I have much more time to invest in myself.

Best time investment is an active contribution to my side hustles :) Worst time investment is using social media on my smartphone too much :(

And in the end we all end up in a coffin. There is no notion of "wasting your time", everything is pointless.

What about the legacy you leave after yourself? Be it invention, great article or a book, children who are better than you, or great businesses or non-profits.

If everybody thought about "just ending in a coffin and everything is pointless", humanity would've ceased existence long time ago.

Best investment: setting time aside each day to exercise, and then sticking to it no matter what.

Worst investment: finishing books that didn't bring so much to the table, just for the sake of completing the reading.
