Living in Time-Finding Meaning in Fruitful and Boring Days

Hey All, Namaste & Greetings!

Have you ever had one of those days where everything just seems to go your way? You wake up feeling energized and motivated, you breeze through your to-do list, and you end the day feeling accomplished and fulfilled. These are the days that we call "fruitful."

On the other hand, we all know what it's like to have a day where nothing seems to go right. You wake up feeling tired and unmotivated, you struggle to focus on your tasks, and you end the day feeling frustrated and unfulfilled. These are the days that we call "boring."

But what if I told you that the quality of your time and your happiness measures may differ based on person to person and that both "fruitful" and "boring" days have something in common? They both have the same amount of time.

Time is a funny thing. It's something that we can never get back once it's gone, and yet we often take it for granted. We live in a world where time is always moving forward, and it can be easy to get caught up in the rush of it all. But what does it really mean to live in time?

Living in time means being present at the moment. It means taking the time to appreciate the little things in life and finding joy in the simple pleasures. It means not just going through the motions, but truly experiencing each and every moment.

Of course, this is easier said than done. We all lead busy lives, and it can be hard to find the time to slow down and really savor the moment. But the truth is, time is the most precious resource we have. It's the one thing that we can never get back, and it's up to us to use it wisely.

So how can we make the most of our time?

It starts by taking a step back and focusing on what really matters. Instead of constantly chasing after the next big thing, take some time to appreciate the people and experiences that bring you joy. Spend time with your loved ones, take up a new hobby, or simply enjoy the beauty of nature.

And when those "boring" days inevitably come around, try to remember that they too have value. Even when things don't go our way, we can still learn and grow from our experiences. We can use those moments to reflect on our goals and priorities and to think about how we can make the most of the time we have.

In the end, I would love to share my opinion with you all that living in time is about finding balance. It's about recognizing that some days will be more fruitful than others, but that every moment has the potential to be meaningful. So the next time you find yourself feeling bored or unfulfilled, take a step back and ask yourself how you can make the most of that moment. Because no matter how you measure happiness or quality time, the one thing we all have in common is the same 24 hours a day.

"What are some ways that you make the most of your time and find meaning in both 'fruitful' and 'boring' days? Please comment below!

That Random day in my life.....

That day began like any other, filled with gratitude to Narasimha and hope for the day ahead. I went to work, but by mid-day, something shifted. I fell sick—suddenly, unexpectedly—and as the hours passed, my condition worsened. It wasn’t just an ordinary illness; this time, it felt heavy, like a storm I couldn’t escape. For a moment, I wondered if I would survive. And in that quiet space, where everything else faded, two thoughts consumed me: What about my son? Will my husband manage without me? And then a strange question arose—Is my purpose done? Am I leaving because I’ve already fulfilled what I came to do? ( may be if we feel that moments are our last seconds and if we feel that we don't see tomorrow,then the most precious things alone we might be remember and we would recollect ..it would have scroll down like a reel those precious moments, and so i felt about my son and husband) After several tests, the diagnosis finally came through: viral and bacterial pneumoni...

The Bird Who Chose to Fly Higher

Hey all, Namasthe and Welcome to The Voice of Chittan ! I’m back with another soulful reflection—one that speaks to every heart that’s ever felt unheard, every spirit that’s been tested, and every dream that’s dared to rise above the noise. Today’s blog is a story of resilience, mindful living, and the quiet strength that often goes unnoticed—until it chooses to fly high. Let’s dive in. In a quiet forest, there lived a bird unlike the rest. It wasn’t the loudest, nor the fastest. It didn’t compete for attention or join the noisy flocks that filled the skies with chaos. This bird had a different way of being—it moved slowly, intentionally, and mindfully. Its path wasn’t always clear, but its heart was steady. Every day, it focused on what mattered—its purpose, its values, and its inner peace. But the world around it didn’t understand silence. A flock of noisy birds began to notice this quiet one. They squawked and laughed, mocking its calm demeanor. “Why are you so slow?” they ...

The Beauty of Slowing Down

Hey all,Namaste. thank you for tuning in voice of chittan blog. Today, I want to talk about something we often overlook but desperately need: "the art of doing nothing.” Life has a funny way of surprising us, doesn’t it? There are days when no matter how hard we plan, things just don’t go our way. Deadlines get missed, expectations aren’t met, and sometimes, it feels like the world is rushing by while we’re stuck in slow motion. It’s frustrating, right? But what if I told you that these unexpected pauses are not failures—they’re opportunities? Opportunities to breathe. To reflect. To just be. Think about it. From the moment we wake up, we’re chasing something—goals, recognition, validation, or even the next item on our to-do list. But do we ever pause and ask ourselves, “Why?” Why are we running? And more importantly, where are we running to? Here’s the thing: not every day has to be about hitting targets or checking boxes. Sometimes, the most meaningful moments come ...

If the Entire Team Fails, Then the Manager Also Fails: Understanding Shared Responsibility

" When a team fails, the manager/leader fails too. A leader never have blaming tone,but sets an inspiration". Hey all Namasthe, In the world of organisation ,failure is often seen as a setback, a sign that something went wrong. When an entire team fails, it can feel like a disaster. However, the true measure of a manager is not in how they handle success, but in how they manage failure. While a bad manager might blame their team to remain in their boss’s good books, a good manager understands that leadership means taking responsibility, learning from mistakes, and turning failure into an opportunity for growth. Here’s how a manager can win, even when their team fails. 1. Accept Responsibility The first step in turning failure into victory is for the manager to accept responsibility. This doesn’t mean shouldering all the blame, but rather acknowledging their role in the team’s performance. A good manager understands that they are accountable for the team's results, and t...

The Silent Strength of True Relationships

Hey all, Namaste ! 🙂 Life is full of ups and downs, victories, and struggles. Along the way, we meet countless people, but only a few truly matter. These are the ones who accept us just as we are, celebrate our wins, and support us through our toughest times without ever making us feel small. In this blog, let's dive into why these genuine relationships are the real treasures of our lives and why we should never take them for granted. In the journey of life, we encounter numerous individuals, each leaving their mark on our existence in unique ways. Among these, a select few stand out, offering unconditional acceptance and unwavering support. These relationships, marked by silent strength and genuine care, are the true treasures of our lives. In a world often driven by judgment and criticism, finding someone who accepts you as you are is rare and precious. These are the people who see beyond your flaws and mistakes, understanding the essence of who you truly are. They do not seek ...

తండ్రి మరణం ,కూతురికి నేర్పిన పాఠాలు

మాతృ గర్భం నుండి సముద్రం గర్భం వరకు, తల్లి చల్లని ఒడి నుండి మృత్యు మాత యొక్క అగ్ని ఒడి వరకు జరిగే ప్రయాణంలో నీ ప్రశ్నలు నీవే, జవాబులు నీవే, పోరాటం నీవే.. బతుకు నీదే.. చావు నీదే. పుట్టుక, మరణం రెండు ఒంటరే. ఈ రెండి మద్య నువ్వు పంచిన స్పూర్తి.. అదే నీ జీవితం జీవితంలో అత్యంత ఘర్షణాత్మక సంఘటనలు మన వ్యక్తిత్వంలో బలమైన మార్పును కలిగిస్తాయి. Losing my father was one of the hardest things I’ve ever faced. But you know what? It changed me. It taught me lessons I don’t think I would have learned otherwise. It’s like life whispered, "Here’s the truth—take it, hold it, and grow with it." One of the first things I learned was how important it is to stand on your own.I realized I had to become that for myself. Independence isn’t just about surviving—it’s about finding strength you didn’t know you had. And trust? Oh, that was a big one. I’ve learned to be careful with trust. Not everyone deserves it, and that’s okay. But here’s the thing—I haven’t closed myself off. I’ve just beco...

Your cracks in life are golden

Hey all...Namaste🙂 let me tell you about something I recently came across that completely changed how I see life. It’s this Japanese philosophy called Kintsugi. Ever heard of it? It’s basically the art of fixing broken pottery with gold. But hang on, it’s way more than that. Imagine this—you drop your favorite ceramic mug. It shatters. The first instinct? Toss it..we will throw it away, isn't it? Because broken things are useless, isn't it? But this is Not in Kintsugi. In Kintsugi, those cracks are celebrated in its own way. You know how? They’re filled with gold. And when you look at the repaired piece, it’s not just a mug anymore. It’s a story, a piece of art. It’s more valuable than it was before. And that got me thinking—what if we looked at ourselves the same way? I am sure you agree with me if I say this..., life breaks all of us in some way. Maybe it’s a failed relationship, a career setback, losing someone you love, or just that quiet feeling that you’re not enough. We...
