Investing time....vs spending it

It seems like no matter what month of the year it is I find myself saying something like "I can't believe it's already _______" or "I can't believe it'll be (insert holiday) next month!"

Time flies; doesn't it?

I'm reminded often about a quote I read once from Author James Clear:

"Think about what you want today and you'll spend your time. Think about what you want in 5 years and you'll invest your time." I don't want to just spend my time...I want to invest it. It's the same reason I choose to sit on a smoking hot river all day untangling fishing line for my son (as many of you have) rather than leaving him home with his mom while I go try to rack up a personal best for the number of trout I've caught in a day. The same happened when I set out to lose weight and try to make an effort to start being more active. Every day I wanted to sleep in, watch a new episode of a great sit-com (Boy Meets World and Chef Emril were the shows dejor back then for me...), and find ways to spend my time. But I was just at the age where I started to realize I'd be stuck the next 21 years in the same place I was in my first 21 years. I know (literally) that there are days you don't feel like training, tracking, or investing your time, but I can tell you the you five years from now will say "thank you" and you'll know then it was worth it.

This page feels like it was made for people who just want the info without digging around. The text is broken up nicely, so you can skim for a minute and still catch what matters. I ended up clicking into Drift Boss halfway through because it was right there, and the whole one-button thing is exactly as simple as it sounds—until you realize you actually have to time it or you’re gone. I also noticed it doesn’t shove distractions in your face, which makes it easier to stay focused on the game and the basics. Nothing feels cluttered or tiny on the screen, and the headings do a good job guiding you. The “How to Play” section is set up…

keonhacai5 dạo này thấy mấy ông bạn hay bàn nên mình ghé thử cho biết, kiểu vào xem giao diện có dễ theo dõi không thôi. Mình không chuyên soi kèo, nhưng thấy họ trình bày khá thoáng, chữ không bị dồn dập nên lướt một lúc vẫn đỡ mệt mắt. Có cái bảng kèo bóng đá trực tuyến cập nhật theo các trận trong ngày nhìn tiện, kéo xuống là thấy từng dòng tách bạch chứ không bị rối. Mình để ý phần hiển thị chia rõ “giờ trận đấu”, rồi tách “cả trận” với “hiệp 1” riêng nên nhìn phát là hiểu đang xem mục nào trên bảng kèo.
