Reading a book called 4 Thousand Weeks and this quote hits:
Your experience of being alive consist of nothing other than the sum of everything to which you pay attention. At the end of your life, looking back, whatever compelled your attention from moment to moment is simply what your life will have been.
So when you pay attention to something you don't especially value, it's not an exaggeration to say that you're paying with your life.
This is an interesting concept to grasp as you get older and appreciate the time you are alive. I feel sorry for my generation, that has gamed away a lot of their life playing GTA, halo, and COD.
I think most people probably spend too much time on meaningless attention grabbers. I am guilty of it too. But I agree, the video game generation has more distractions to entice their minds away ...
This generation has tik tok.
Now imagine how many people out there are doom scrolling every day...
Or inagine how many people out there are paying attention to celebrities...
Being able to spend our time on things or people that are important or not to us is what reminds us that life is so ephemeral and that our time is truly valuable, it is gold.
I think this is a totally correct perspective, it is almost the same as saying that "When we waste time on activities that are not valuable to us, we waste part of our life." Our time is the most important and valuable thing that a human being can possess, that should be our main unit of measurement and then secondly, the most important thing, is Bitcoin.
Very good perspective👍
Time then Bitcoin hah
