Acharya Prashant addresses the common struggle of finding 'me time' or time for self-analysis, pointing out that the very need to find such time implies that one's life is currently dictated by others. He explains that time is not something to be fragmented into professional and personal segments; such division is a source of pain and enslavement. When people seek weekend getaways or entertainment, they are often just trying to escape the 'soul-sapping' work and boredom of their week. This reliance on entertainment acts as a tranquilizer to forget the torture of a life that is not truly one's own. He asserts that life is either completely yours or not yours at all, and attempting to divide it is an invitation to suffering. He challenges the idea of postponing life for the future, such as waiting for retirement or for children to grow up before doing what one truly loves. Acharya Prashant emphasizes that the future is a tree that emerges from the seed of the present moment; if the present is rotten and filled with compromise, the future cannot be beautiful. He urges the listener to be the master of every moment by being completely available and immersed in it right now. By being awake and aware, one naturally stops engaging in wasteful activities like gossiping, excessive social media use, or mindless entertainment. This awareness effectively 'releases' more time, making life feel more abundant and creative rather than a series of obligations and escapes.
