How to Waste Time Efficiently

That's right, just like John Lennon said, "Time you enjoy wasting, was not wasted."

At any given moment, during any given activity, ask yourself these questions:

  1. Am I enjoying what I'm doing? If yes, go on, if no...
  2. Is what I'm doing benefiting anybody or profitable? If no... 
  3. Am I obligated to do this? If no...
  4. Eliminate the activity! 
I was considering making a flowchart, but I figured I ought not stoop to that level of nerdiness. 


Or maybe it's because I deleted the flowchart...
EDIT: I threw together this one this morning.

Here you go, flowchart lovers!


Go forth and enjoy your lives!

  1. I guess you need to ask yourself, would you have enjoyed making a flowchart, would making a flowchart benefit anybody or be profitable, and are you obligated to make a flowchart?

    Nice post, I am usually pretty good at identifying and eliminating activities with no purpose.
