Second post of the series about my a life-style change.
Some weeks ago, I have had a life style which I considered a bad work life balance. Most of the time I spend in front of my MacBook either sorting or editing pictures, coding some websites or writing stuff plus — worst — way to much procrastination — for example Twitter!
I considered that evil because I did not spend enough time on learning for school, doing sports and I did not spend enough time with friends!
First to the learning: I need to spend more time on learning this year. This year I attend 12th grade of a so called ‘BerufsOberschule’ (eng: College of Further Education) which will give me the right to study at a College (in Germany a ‘Fachhochschule’). But that kind of school is just a 3rd of a year long and I consider it hard to finish with great marks — to add: I attended a spanish foundation course as well. So I need to concentrate on learning to get of that school with a great examination!
Second about the Friends: Friends are crucial for everybody. I had just a few of which I really was able to talk to over the past years but that has changed now. I am happy about having people / friends around me. But sometimes I would like to spend some more time with them.
One last fact is sport: I would like to do more sport. Not just for my body but also for my mind. I would like to get more fresh air and to build some muscle power. All that can just be done by investing some time into it which I need to cut somewhere else.
These three things and some others are the main reasons for me writing this series. I have thought about my style-of-life a lot lately and that way I reconsider my style very often. The things I consider worth fighting for as well as the things I need to stop doing, reduce or the things I need to spend more time on.
Maybe it is just not possible to change everything. But hopefully it is possible to change as much as needed! I am also sure that I may do reconsider all of this very soon but for now I think this will be interesting for me to remember and share for someone who finds him self in the same situation.
This is my overview. This is the thing I would like to change. Next is the part where I see the problems.
