Free Time is The Enemy of Progress

Hello there! I've been watching Casey Neistat a bit more often these days, and I've been trying to keep up with his daily vlogs, and I'm glad that I put in the effort to do so. This is because in one of his vlogs, he mentioned about how he doesn't have free time and the he constantly needs to find something productive to do really motivated me to be more productive in my daily life. This particular line - free time is the enemy of progress; even though it sounds petty, it is really something that we should always remember. For the past few months I've been really unproductive, the only things I've done, I only did it because I had to. Casey also said in another video that comfort = declination. To me, this is also an extremely important advice that I need to remember all the time so that I don't get distracted by the all the things I have achieved in the past. He said that you never really make it; there's is no specific destination, and in order to keep on having that success is to maintain your momentum and keep on fighting for the better, do not allow yourself to stay in your comfort zone. I can relate to this right now with my very few interview experiences, where I thought that by impressing the interviewers with what I've got the first time is enough, when really what I was supposed to do was to prepare more things in between the interviewers and produce more work to show during my future interviews. And I have learnt a hard lesson in the past few months and hopefully these two quotes will be able to motivate me in a long run. 

I do suggest that you watch Casey Neistat's videos, they're quite motivational and they're very entertaining. Try not to binge-watch his videos, because I always fail to prevent myself from doing that. Click here for the video where he talked about free time being the enemy of progress, and here where he talked about how comfort is declination. I hope this post has been a good read, and let me know what you think! :)
