Have you blocked your calendar for yourself?

"Hey I'm so sorry, but my calendar is blocked for the day and probably for the next some days."

This statement has become quite common these days. Some with clients, some with customers, some with teams, some with managers, etc. But are you blocking your daily calendar with yourself too? If NOT, then do so NOW.

Just think, you have 24 hours in a day, out of which if 10 hours are removed for your sleep, and daily routine tasks, then still you are left with 14 hours. You have jobs, businesses, and other work, this thing is genuine. But don't forget that all are there because you are there, and therefore you are the most important person.

Don't you think you should keep some time for such an important person? Try it, book your calendar for yourself even for 15 minutes, where only you are there, neither your phone, nor family, nor the world. .Just you and your inner self, and listen carefully to your own voice, and you will find the wonderful positive change in your life.

Please book your calendar NOW.

A nice advisory by the author. We must give some time to ourselves also. That is of utmost importance and some people ignore that due to their busy schedule but they understand its importance and value only when there is a breakdown in their routine one day.
Actually many methods are suggested by the experts in this matter. One quite common often suggested is Yoga and meditation. Another is worshipping the almighty in whatever form. One other method followed by many people is prayers and reciting religious songs. All these engagements are advised for giving time to oneself in a constructive and spiritual way. These self indulgences also help us in inculcating a positive mind.
One can find the utility and value of these things only when one practices these things in one's life.

Knowledge is power.

If we are not there, nothing is there for us in this world. Nobody will give importance to you more than you. So you should think for yourselves and do what makes you happy and what makes you free.
When we are in our 30s and 40s we will have many responsibilities and many desires. We will be running after those desires and responsibilities. We may have to take care of our old parents, children and other dependents. So in that pursuit, we may not find time to think about ourselves and our well-being. As we cross our sixties many of our responsibilities might have been over and we should start detaching ourselves from these worldly relations and issues. Once we enter our 70s, we should think about anything except thinking about our eternal peace and we should start praying or meditating to attain moksha.
But even when we are active we should think about ourselves at least for a small duration every day and see that we will have a satisfied life. If you neglect giving importance to your inner self and neglect, you may have to suffer a lot.

Author has raised a very interesting point and with the times our role changes from childhood to attainment of old ages. We have seen the strenuous time during our studies and even after discharging our duties in the jobs or in any other assignments, it might have been difficult times to manage every responsibilities entrusted to us.
Finally, our responsibilities drop with our retirements and this is definitely the time for rejoice but it does not mean that we should sit idle in this phase but we should remain involved in all such activities which could give us mental peace. We should remain occupied with all such activities providing us pleasure but these activities must be within the acceptable level of the society. Teaching kids in our families to our grandchildren could provide us immense pleasure or even indulgence with yoga/ exercise would not be bad either to lead peaceful lives in the old ages.

Thanks to the author for raising a wonderful thread and very important nowadays. Everyone is busy but does not have time for themselves. Frankly, I also do not block my calendar for myself so far but after reading this thread certainly, I would like to block some time for myself.

I want to add that it is very difficult to give time to yourselves but try meditation which is the best way to do so. Also, spend sometimes which your partner and children and talk to them.

Honesty is the best policy.
