If you could be someone else for a day, who would you be, and why?

If I had the chance to be someone else for a day, I’d still pick myself. Sounds boring? Hear me outit’s simpler than you think. Imagine I swapped lives with a billionaire. Sure, I’d be swimming in luxury, tasting riches beyond my wildest dreams. But one day of that would ruin me. I’d come back to my regular life spoiled, craving caviar and private jets, miserable with my modest reality. Not worth it. Or what if I became a politiciansay, a king or presidentfor 24 hours? Power’s tempting, but knowing me, I’d probably lob a nuclear bomb at an annoying neighbor before lunch. Fun in theory, disastrous in practice. Pass. A famous movie star? Glamorous, yesuntil I’m drowning in their whirlwind of scandals, juggling multiple partners, and dodging tabloid diseases. I’d be a wreck by dinner, begging for my quiet couch and Netflix.

No exceptions. Day one, it’s chaos. Day two, defiance kicks in. By week three, people are whispering ‘gosh’ and ‘darn’ just to spite the system. Boomproblem solved, and not a single cuss left in sight!”

Managing screen time

Managing screen time is important, especially if you want to have a decent work – life balance and have some control over your sanity. I work in the computer industry. Which makes it mandatory that I stare at a computer screen for hours at a time. I also have the habit of waking up early – early as at 3.30 AM – every day of the year. I work till 8 PM. This would make it an extra long work day, but I have an advantage in that I work remotely. I  am also living alone at the moment, which means I get to cook, wash clothes and dishes – OK the washing machine helps, but still.  All these extra curricular activities give me a break from staring at the screen.
