How long have I lived? And how much of it have I spent doing meaningful things?
I've just watched an anonymous video that sent me a wake up call. Throughout my years, I was raised with the presence of video games. I moved from Sega, to Playstation, Computer, GameBoy and Playstation 2. I literally grew up with it. I have spent hours of time sitting in front of the screen, doing something unproductive. I have played all kinds of game genre, but it doesn't make me smarter, nor does it improve my reflexes. I wasn't any step closer to being a ninja, swordsman, hero, or even a kung fu master.
So what if you got a highscore in a game, you can't use it as a resume during job interview. People often forgot that games are meant for entertainment, a factor, that we will never get enough of. sure it's just a few hours now and then, but accumulated, you'll be amazed by how much time you have wasted.
Life is not like games. You only have 1 CHANCE. You missed it, that's it. Why would you give up the times u can spent with your family and friends, for something that has no real value? You could have used the time to achieve something greater. For the sake of entertainment, you give up sleep, health and ambition, FOR WHAT?
