Acharya Prashant addresses the common student complaint of lacking time for extracurricular activities, expressing surprise at this claim given the superior amenities and resources available in modern campuses compared to the past. He argues that the perceived lack of time is not a result of resource scarcity but a matter of personal priorities. He points out that while students claim to be busy, they often spend hours on social media, watching reels, and following influencers. This wasted time is significant because, after accounting for biological necessities and academic requirements, students only have a few hours of truly free time for self-development. When those few hours are consumed by digital distractions, it creates a false sense of being overwhelmed by time pressure.
