Being busy is something I enjoy. I like being productive, but I always ensure I take breaks in between tasks. One of the advantages of working from home is that I can relax whenever I want. My busy days often involve work, side hustles, and household chores. How about you? Are you always busy?
 
Yes this period I am always busy. It has gotten to the point where it feels like the 24 hours is no longer enough. There are so many things I need to work on.
 
Yes I try to create avenues to keep myself busy I don't just like to be bored . So I'm super busy now
 
Always, LOL.

I make time for my family but beyond that, I have a lot on my to-do list every single day.
 
Yes, through out the weekdays I'm very busy because of work.

I'm very free during weekends.
 
As much as I'm always busy, but I will always make time for someone or something that's very important to me.

There are some weekends when I'm more busy than I used to be during weekdays.
 
I'm pretty busy most of the time, but for my close loved ones, I'll always make time for them.

Exactly! It's like for my mother right now, I'll drop everything I'm doing immediately once she needs my attention and time. That woman have sacrificed so much for me.

It's good to put loved ones first!

Seriously!! It's them first or nothing else. How I'm looking after my mother now have shown me the importance of having kids. When you train them, they will be there to take care of you in your old age.

I have a few step kids. The youngest is going to be 19 on Sunday. She is in college so she is living at home. I love her as my own and boy and his wife. too. But I'm kind of glad I don't have any kids of my own. I know that might sound bad to those with kids but I'm pretty happy without them.

My step children are enough.

It takes a lot of maturity for you to accept and love another man's kids as your own as well as not wanting to have kids of your own because you believe they are enough.

You might not know it but you're indirectly avoiding and preventing a clash of interest by not having kids of your own because there might be a chance of feeling more connected to your own kid on the long run which might create a rift in the family.
 
I'm not as busy now.

I used to say yes to everything. Now I'm learning to say no.

I just bought a brand-new truck and payments are high. Because of that, I've cut down on a lot of spending and also a lot of projects that typically result in spending money with no ROI.

For example, I had about 62 domain names with WIP websites projects on them. Now I've cut it down to 14 with sites that are either making money or are hobbies. My forums are hobbies so I'm not too pressed to monetize them.

But since I've made these cuts, I've given myself more time to myself which is kind of nice.
 
I would say that I am busy 90% of the time each day. I much prefer to keep myself busy and always like to be doing something productive.

It's crazy as I always remember when I was a kid, I always used to complain I was bored and nowadays, I never have time to be bored.

You did the right thing as far as I'm concerned. Time is the only thing you can't pay for in order to have extra more hours on top of the 24 hours we have in a day. Cutting off on some things to free time for yourself is the right thing to do.
