I personally felt this way since I spent the whole 2008 exploring and traveling. I've been doin nothing,but I don't have regrets either since I have great memories to ponder now. How about you? Have you ever felt that you've wasted time?How did you feel about it? Happy mylotting!รป

At times, it does seem like that with me. Really it does but really in retrospective, it is not a waste of time at all. It is just one of those things that it does not seem like it matters to me. However, in the end, it is something that did serve a better purpose than what I thought it was. It just really is amazing to say the very least.
So no, I have really not felt as if I was wasting any time. At least not enough where it is going to bother me. Everything that I do in life does in fact serve me well for a variety of reasons. Well not everything, as nothing is for sure, but things that might seem wasteful have gotten me to a certain position where I was able to do something rather productive. So in the end, there was really no waste of time at all. Everything ties together as well as it could be expected.

i think if you do things what you like. it's not waste you time. i can't study and work all the year around. we need relax. traveling is a good thing. it can make you feel well. so you don't regret that you wast your time. it's said, you don't enjoy life, you can't work well.

No, I don't feel that I did because I lived in the present moment so everything I wanted to do was what I wanted at the moment. So, how could it be wasted? I think it really is a matter of perspective and perception.

Hi Jannalee,
Yes the feeling sometimes comes that we have wasted our time, but if you waste your time and still learn something than there is no regret.
I myself think sometime that i have wasted my time suring online but again i don't regret because i still learn.
Cheers,Keep mylotting,

Yes, I feel that I wasted a great deal of time doing stuff that didn't really need to be done or done things that could have waited longer..I have wasted time also trying to make head or tails of my life and still as confused as I was last year.
