Greetings, everyone.

One aspect of lifestyle I don't easily get along with is a predictable routine; people mastering my routine. No, I don't like it. I prefer it when even I do not understand my next action. Yeah, I love that flexibility a lot.

I'm someone who's always on the go, hunting for money, and every single second of my time counts. I strongly believe in the saying that "TIME IS MONEY." With the kind of work I do, which demands unexpected and impromptu attention to my clients, I tend to live a very planned life to match up with the instability.

Sometimes I would be enjoying my "me time" in my house, and the next thing I would hear is a knock on my door, and before you know it, I'm out satisfying a client's request already.

We seldom see public electricity here, even though we are paying for it, and my nature of work uses 80% of electricity, which I spend a lot of fuel on. So whenever public electricity comes, it usually takes me away from my personal life to take advantage of it in my business, which helps to reduce expenses. Imagine if I have a programmed time for my daily activities, and during those times, electricity comes, and I decide to stay put and don't make use of it. It would be a big loss.

So, I do most of my activities at any time because I don't know when I'll be pulled out of the system.

It amazes me a lot whenever I hear people say they have a timetable for meals. I mean, specific meals for specific days and times. I know it's good, especially when it comes to dieting, but hey, nothing is sweeter than eating randomly. My feeding pattern is not auto-programmed; I eat whatever comes to my mind. It gives me this feeling of not being used to some set of particular meals. Many times, it's when I get hungry that I make the food I want to eat, and at that time, it's what comes to my mind that I go for. One might say this will stress and cost much, but no, it doesn't. In fact, it saves more because sometimes I might end up settling for fruits for that moment, which is way lighter and less costly than the normal food.

For like three weeks, I decided to change the approach I use in opening my office because I was beginning to notice some unwanted familiarity, and this has helped me a lot. It has saved me a whole lot of time—*the time that's always not enough for me, the time that I measure with money.*Lol
Any single second I spend outside on what is not profitable to me, I feel guilty.

There's this lady that likes coming around every morning around 7:30 am to 8:00 am to ask for my help in carrying out some of her goods outside. I often open my office within that time; I would just sit there with my eye glued to my PC or phone doing my blogging work, and anytime she comes, she would think I'm just wasting my time on social media like Twitter or Facebook. With that, she would ask me to come help her. I would tell her that I'm busy, which she'll doubt and assume I don't want to help her. How do I explain to her that my time is precious to me? After much contemplation, I would get up and go and waste about 10 mins with her by helping her bring out goods from her shop. This has become her routine, which I changed, and ever since then, my availability to her early morning calls has been scanty.

Even in my blogging life, it has never been autopiloted, and this has helped me a lot, especially in fighting writer's block. I seldom miss any day without writing because I write anytime ideas come and I'm free to write, not settling for a particular time that it's possible to be mind-blocked, and I'll end up wasting the stipulated time without utilizing it.

Although many people would say that living an autopilot life helps to organize life and improves productivity, but for me, I love the flexibility that spontaneity brings, coupled with its spacious ground for creativity.

Thanks for reading.
