There are times, however, when wasting your own time can be a sign of disrespect and taken offensively. For example, when someone has invested their time into you. If someone wants to teach you something, and you brush it off by doing something entirely unrelated, you have automatically wasted their time by default, even if they were productive. Wasting time can only lead to wasted time, whether it is yours or someone else's.

I'll find myself in the middle of an important task spacing out imagining myself in great scenarios (like the one pictured below). They're often so realistic, I feel like they're something I can achieve. The problem with that is, that then leads me down a road of me researching how to achieve that daydream, and that leads me farther off course. I still want to visit the Bahamas. I spent a good 20 minutes daydreaming about that before doing this assignment.]]> 2017-02-28 15:31:30 UTC https://padlet.com/stephenp364/5cbs0yvn06ws/wish/156753669 stephenp364 https://padlet.com/stephenp364/5cbs0yvn06ws/wish/156755399 Many Americans (I being especially guilty) practically live on socially media. That's not necessarily bad in my opinion, it's another way of socializing. It's not "The old fashioned way," as my parents call it, but it's an important aspect of youth today. This is probably the biggest time waster, as it can turn a 10 minute worksheet into an hour long affair.]]> 2017-02-28 15:35:33 UTC https://padlet.com/stephenp364/5cbs0yvn06ws/wish/156755399 stephenp364 https://padlet.com/stephenp364/5cbs0yvn06ws/wish/156755703 While these may not necessarily be a waste of time, doing it for the wrong reasons can be. If you're doing a sport just to avoid homework, or just to socialize, it can be a waste of time. Sports, just like anything else, requires attention and dedication. Even if you aren't the best, dedication can pay off as much as non-wasted time in a classroom with scholarships and other opportunities available. It comes down to reasons!]]> 2017-02-28 15:36:16 UTC https://padlet.com/stephenp364/5cbs0yvn06ws/wish/156755703
