Why I’ve Stopped Wasting My Time And Energy On Things That Don’t Matter

Over the last I want to say 3 – 4 months I’ve definitely had a wake up call. There has been so much going on in my personal life that I’ve genuinely stopped wasting my time on certain things. I’ve realised that life is definitely way too short to waste my time on energy on certain matters and not only that there are certain things I just genuinely don’t have time for.

At the moment I barely have time to make sure that I get a decent nights sleep let alone anything else. I have come to realise why my Grandad always says your time and energy is so precious, and he is right (but don’t always tell him that!) because what is the point in wasting your time on things that not worth your time?

I’m wanting to surround myself with people who are genuine, who are just the most amazing people and not only that being mindful of the time that I waste on people that genuinely don’t bring me joy.

I’m a worrier if I’m totally honest, it is the way my body is programmed, even if someone says oh you have nothing to worry about, I am pretty sure that I will find the tiniest detail known to man and I get my self all tangled up in my own web of emotions.

I’ve talked a lot lately about my anxiety, what I’ve been feeling and if I’m totally honest it made me feel so much better writing that entire post. If you fancy a read you can check it out here. It is basically an emotional rant about how I’m feeling and if I’m honest it really did open my eyes to what I need to do to get myself into a better place.

In life so many people come into your life, they leave your life, you make mistakes and life goes on. People will hurt you, they will let you down, they will disappoint you, and they are the people that are not worth it in your life. Let’s be honest the last thing we all need when time is so damn precious is someone who literally drains you, who takes you for granted and someone who genuinely doesn’t see how much you’re there for them.

I’ve said it before, being selfish isn’t always a bad thing, sometimes you have to have a moment where you accept what happens, have a bit of a reflect over everything and pick up your bag and move on. There is no point in sitting around watching life pass you by when you could be moving forward and living your best damn life.

I’m going to stop letting people put so much negativity into my life, I’m going to start putting myself first and above all doing what is right for me. Life isn’t about carrying around excess negativity, life is too short, fill your life with happiness and surround yourself with people who genuinely bring so much light into your life.
