The Internet Can Be a Time Waster: Do Some House Cleaning

It's late at night and you can't sleep.  Most people turn on the TV or surf the Internet.  But that can get boring, surfing from site to site, and how many times does one have to check his or her email?  Meanwhile, there are some things around the household that need to be done.


1.  Clean off your dusty entertainment center and wipe off your TV screen.  While your at it, organize your videos and get rid of those you no longer watch.  Do you even have a VCR anymore?  Why save the VHS tapes?

2.  Upload all your photos from your digital camera.

3.  Organize your digital photos.

4.  Scan your photographs.

5.  Scan your awards, certificates and other keepsakes.

6.  Sort through your old stuff.  Bag the trash items.  Box the things that are in good condition and give them away to a local charity.  Get a receipt because your donations are tax deductible with certain establishments.

7.  Take pictures of items you want to sell online or offline.

8.  Create fliers.

9.  Manage your money.  Check out how much money you have been spending lately.  Create a budget.  Research ways to invest and save money.

10.  Write someone a letter you haven't contacted in awhile.  They will be glad to hear from you.  People get tired of looking at bills in the mail.

11. Catch up on some offline reading. Try reading the Bible and praying.  You never know what kind of wisdom you might find that may help you through one of your dilemmas.

12.  Organize your cell phone and other gadgets.  Delete old phone numbers, messages, etc. 

The Internet can take away from many duties you may have to complete offline.  Take advantage of your free time now before you get busy again.

What About that "To Do" List

So you find yourself bored with nothing to do, but you know you ought to find something to do if you are on paid time.  Why not, create a "to do" list for anything you ever felt like you needed to do or check the one you already wrote and hadn't got around to completing?

Ask yourself what keeps holding you back from accomplishing certain tasks.  If money is an issue, then find out how you can make extra cash.  Maybe you need to sell some things online, offer a service to your local area, or ask someone for money they borrowed from you.  Whatever your challenge, note a solution.

Don't allow yourself to not take advantage of valuable free time.  Find a way to get everything done that you always wanted to do and it always starts by creating a plan.

You Need a Pick Me Up?

Sometimes life gets the best of us and we just need that pick me up!  We need someone or something to just say, "It's okay, I love you."  There is nothing wrong with wanting that!  You may be in a boring, humdrum relationship, in a boring job, or bored with your children.  Whatever is making you feel like you have no spark or no energy, just know that someone out here in the Internet world cares.

Some people simply don't understand, nor do they want to understand what makes us tick.  All some energy sappers want is what they can get out of us.  Once our energy is sapped, who is there to replenish us?  This is why the great teachers tell us to reflect inwardly.  To go some place and just meditate and reconnect with your spiritual self.  You may have reached this place of boredom in your life, because you allowed others, for so long, to dictate your time (and dare I say it your money too.)  Now you have nothing left for yourself!

Whatever you decide to do to get that pick me up, may it be worthwhile, inspiring, fresh and unique to you!  Most of all, don't wait for anyone to give you anything that you can get yourself!
