Rushing Them To A Complete Big Mess

"Hurry up"
"You gotta finish that already"
"Aren't you done yet?"
"What's taking so long?"


Rushing people might be easy for you to do but you being the one being rushed doesn't feel great, does it? Once you rush people,it causes them to stress over the things they are doing, thus, leaving them to mess things up. Imagine following a dotted line with a marker and you gotta be careful but someone wants you to do it faster, will you mess up or not? Or imagine going to the grocery with a list your mom gave you but you only had 15 minutes to do it, will you get the exact groceries needed? I think not.
If we rush them, then it wouldn't be good for them, would it? It will most likely lead them to thinking that they'll just stop on whatever they're doing and go to you even though the work's not finished, or worse, go to you with their work completely messed up. You can't escape this, you're not rushing them to submit before the deadline, but you are rushing them to a complete big mess. (Things that were given enough time for submission is excluded because it could have been done earlier.)

Time is indeed gold, but to be honest, no one can race through it. If you don't want to fuss, then think ahead. Make a schedule. Measure the time needed to do this and that. Alert people at an early time, not when the deadline is after 24- to 48 hours.

We can do things well if we're relaxed, correct? If we are free from deadlines, then there's no stress, and we can actually do more productive things after. We can have finishing touches instead of just saying "Oh well, what the heck. I'll just have to bear with this." Agree or disagree?

Racing time is all that we've been doing all our lives and that's just adding up to our stress. What to do to escape this?

Go back to the 2nd paragraph.

Make a schedule. Without a schedule, then how can you balance all the things that you have to do? Having a schedule will save you a lot of time and not waste your time in thinking what you're supposed to do next.

Make a list. A list of all things needed to be bought or to be done. Keep them in places where you can notice them right away like beside your car keys or stick them on your fridge.

Notify people earlier so you won't have to rush them. It won't be your fault if you have given them enough time to get ready.

AND

Don't rush people or avoid getting rushed. This will affect both of the person involved. It will mess up your schedule and cost you a lot of your time. You can forget important things because of this. Sometimes, when you push your brain to remember more things, then it will cause more damage, thus, giving you more headaches. And the people affected will experience the same thing too.

Make every second count. No rush, no problem. More time, more freedom.

Don't Take Love Away

If you know someone who has a girlfriend and if you're planning to flirt with the man, I'm gonna have to ask you to read this post until the end. This will be short. Whenever I'm outside, in a classroom, or in a cafe, I have heard conversations about a girl crushing on a guy who already have a girlfriend, and what I heard we're pretty bad. Their plans would either be: wait til they break up (adding "walang forever" / "there's no forever") flirt steal the guy herself Why? Why do you have to go through all that process on stealing someone's love? Why do you have to be selfish? Do you think about the consequences? Have you ever thought that you will ruin someone's view about love? How can you live thinking that you got what you want, but there is someone out there crying at night thinking why they WEREN'T ENOUGH. If it sounds as if I've been through that kind of pain... then yes, I have, and I still am going through ...

Goodnight.

It's almost 2am and my mind is filled with reasons why I couldn't sleep. I couldn't sleep ... because when you've said your last "goodnight" for today, I wondered if you'll ever need me for the next couple of hours. What if you couldn't sleep, or have been woken up from a nightmare, and I wouldn't be there to tell you that everything's going to be alright? Tell me what's bothering you at 3am and I will talk to you until you fall asleep. And by then I'll bid you Goodnight. I couldn't sleep ... because when I look at the ceiling, I'd wish that by the time I look beside me, I can see you, and not this pillow missing the warmth of your skin. And maybe by then we wouldn't need to have our phone in our hands, because I would intertwine your fingers with mine, and they'd fit perfectly, almost as if it's meant to be. And we'll look at each other's eyes Not on our phones Because we wouldn't have ...

Some Alone Time

This blog has been mostly about positive outlooks in life and the future, but allow me to give you a little gray cloud on a sunny day. For the past few weeks, my family has been asking me about my depression. They'd ask how can I still not get over my parent's death ( read about it   here ). How can I if that triggered my depression on? I know they're worried, they told me that they give me the things I need... but then I thought... I don't need material things, I just need them to understand. When they inquire me what's really happening inside my nutshell, I'd just look down and tell them that it's not easy to define, and I told them that I'll just express all of it to my psychiatrist. But today, I decided to write all about it. I know that the negativity of this post isn’t decent, but at least hear me out. 3 years ago, a year after my mom died, I understood my father’s constant drinking of alcoholic beverages, and I also understood all his s...
