Free Yourself with Leisure Time

Leisure time is a treasure. Lock it, guard it, and be aggressive towards anything/anyone that dares to encroach upon it. Leisure time is a luxury, and I always curse at myself for all the times I’ve let it slip through my fingers. At Jontsejontse, I’ve introduced a plethora of ways to create more free time, albeit being more efficient while working or tricks to stay organized.

Although it might seem that girls are predisposed to say “NO” at clubs, in reality, they’re practicing a very useful skill.

The overwhelming urge to reply to emails while gchatting, facebooking, and, God forbid, working, has many of us switching back and forth between applications and devices. Although you may have “fun” while chipping away at the task-at-hand, is it really an efficient use of your time?
