the solution to the problem of “wasting time” is not the “being productive”
the solution to the problem of “wasting time” is “NOT wasting time”
we think this problem and this sin of “wasting time” emerged in relation to our shortcomings:
-we want things
-but we fail to produce them, fail to produce desired results
-we fail to produce in our un-productivity
that is what we think is the nature of this “time-wasting” problem
alas “wanting” is insatiable
the way we want — it’s an existential wanting — the wanting to be good enough, so that we can be permanent enough, so that we can actually…last
we are wanting COMPLETION
we seek that completion in producing
and our failure to produce is the scapegoat
our un-productivity is a scapegoat for our existential angst
(one of them anyway)
un-productivity is a scapegoat
it’s a stupid concept
HOW PRODUCTIVE is good enough?
HOW MUCH is good enough?
HOW GOOD is good enough?
HOW GOOD do you have to be to be SIGNIFICANT?
see?
you can’t be “productive” enough
because you could always be more productive
and you can’t be good enough
because you will fucking die anyway
you ain’t going to heaven. you ain’t going to hell either, at least as long as you don’t bring hell here on earth
you will die anyway
you can’t be good enough to not die, to be significant, to be significant enough so as to be permanent, lasting, immortal
however
is the problem of “wasting time” illusionary, like “un-productivity”?
no
you can’t be “productive enough”, true
but you can waste time
is “time-wasting” defined in relation to productivity?
no
“time wasting”, or NOT wasting, is defined in relation to how SINCERELY you’re living
to how sincerely you’re probing into this existence
how sincerely you probe into you, the main character of this tale (from your limited perspective anyway)
and what you do with this story
and will you appreciate this gift
or will you waste it
see how do we solve “time wasting”?
we cease fucking wasting time
we don’t DO what we KNOW is not worthwhile
we don’t engage in the petty and trivial
we have a sense of urgency about this existence
and each day we welcome anew
and choose anew what to do with it
see productivity is not the opposite of “time-wasting”
you can be “productive” and it’s all worthless
and you have never lived
oh and “living” is not the opposite of “time wasting” either
don’t “try” to “live”, like you have some points to score, in some stupid game
that too is the same perversion as productivity — you trying to EARN your own approval and satisfaction
don’t try to earn it
there’s nothing to earn, nothing to accumulate
all you’ll ever accumulate will go straight to hell in no time
don’t try to earn it
just
LIVE now
don’t be petty, now
be PRESENT, now
CHOOSE what is the BEST use of your very, VERY limited time, NOW
