Value
Value – “the regard that something is held to deserve; the importance, worth, or usefulness of something.”
Am I adding value?
Does this add value to me?
My friend asked me a question yesterday.
It was 30 minutes to the time when we usually leave the office – 2 hours after work had officially closed.
I did nothing in those two hours. Okay I watched Maleek Berry’s Kontrol video like 6 times. But that still translates to nothing right?
I stayed behind only because I wanted a ride a home.
Anyway, so yeah, I walked up to my friend’s office to wait with her for the final 30 minutes.
I met her working on something. We engaged in mindless banter for like 5 minutes. Then I sat down to continue doing ‘nothing’.
Then she asked me – “What do you with your free time?”
I confess I got defensive (she didn’t know I did) But in my mind I was like: “B***h what do you mean???”. She didn’t say anything offensive but I got defensive just because I knew my answer was ‘nothing’ and I knew it was not ideal.
I spent the rest of my time there thinking…but really, what do I do with my free time?
What do you do with yours?
This post isn’t quite done yet.. but I’m tired… 😦
