“It’s beauty in the struggle”
– J. Cole on Love Yourz

For some reason, it’s hard for many people to operate with a sense of urgency. Unless there are deadlines, many people will coast along and then take action. Even if something is super important, why does it still not feel like it’s urgent?

Before we continue, I’d like to welcome you to the October 2020 Opinions Column. This is the place where I talk about whatever’s on my mind, from music to movies to staying motivated. If you’re new here, welcome! And if you’re returning, welcome back! And with that said, let’s talk about moving with urgency.

“They say time is money but really, it’s not. If we ever go broke, time is all we got”
– J. Cole on “Mr. Nice Watch“

As we get older, responsibilities seem to increase. And if you’re an ambitious person, it can be difficult to juggle it all. When it’s like that, finding time to do it all can be difficult. So how do you do it? Do you sacrifice? Push yourself harder? Or something else?

Before I get ahead though, welcome! Welcome to the *ehem* ultra late October 2018 Opinions Column. This is where I talk about whatever is on my mind. For those that’re new to the site, welcome! And for those returning, welcome BACK! And with that, let’s talk about the importance of finding time.

“Ahead of my time like I live my whole life backwards”
– J. Cole on “Dead Presidents II“

It seems like nowadays, time comes at a premium. When we were kids, it was easy. Responsibilities were minimal and we could have all the fun we wanted. Fast forward to today, and it seems like there’s always something to do. I don’t quite know when this shift occurred, but it’s reality now. And so, with all that life throws at us, it’s so important to manage time efficiently.

Welcome to the May 2017 Opinions Column. It is here that we can keep up and you’ll hear about what’s on my mind. For those returning, welcome back. And for those that’re new to the site, welcome as well. And with that said, let’s talk about the importance of time management.

“Let me relive my younger days just once again, reenact my memories
from every friend to every sin, keeping demons buried in…
my closet, but yet I put in work like a deposit
on my bank account, My eyes lit while I think about my childhood
now I’m blanking out, those were truly my best days…”

– J. Cole on “Farewell“

I’ve been doing a lot of reading about time lately. I’ve also had a few convos with some friends over the last month on the topic too. For some reason, time seems to move much faster now than when we were younger. Moments that you looked forward to are just blurs in the past now. Milestones have become memories, and it’s hard to comprehend why. I don’t know what it is (and there are a ton of theories out there), but time flies much faster when you get older. Compound that with not “taking the time to smell the roses”, and well…it’s even harder to figure out where the time went.

What is up my peoples? Welcome one and all to the July 2013 Opinions Column. July is my birthday month! With every birthday month Opinions Column, I get extra deep/philosophical/borderline krazy. This year is no different, especially since there’s a ton on my mind that I wanna talk about…especially dealing with time. If you’re new to the site, this is the place where I talk about everythinggggg going on within the chasms of my brizzain. And if you’re returning, muchas gracias! I love you! LoL and with that outta the way, let’s talk about something that I’ve been thinking about (and talking about) throughout the past month…time.
