Hurry Up! Hurry Up! …. It’s very common that we always felt short of time and do things in a hurry while traveling. From starting the journey to coming back home it feels like we are running continuously and didn’t relax a bit.
We missed that thing, we didn’t eat properly, we forget things in the hotel, we didn’t reach on time and we reached so early there, blah, blah. All this shows the pity, anger, frustration and discomfort throughout the journey. And, this is because we didn’t manage our time well.
To get things done in a planned way without any hassle, we need not waste our time over unnecessary things and should focus on priorities first.
Here are the 5 things we mostly waste our time on.
Last Minute Packing:
Instead of the complete planning a month ago and doing all packing on time, everyone seems to forget something to pack, when it’s all set to start. This last minute packing adds to the extra time and creates the chaos situation. So, think hundred times what you may require in the journey and pack your bag accordingly.
Waiting on the Platform:
Most travelers reach the station/platform before the arrival time of the bus, train or flight. If the train gets delayed the waiting time increases for hours, this results in the wastage of time sitting idle in the station and waiting for the train. You can avoid this time wastage by checking the live train running status online ahead and know the current station of the train, its arrival and delay time. Accordingly, plan your move; this will help you save time, which you can utilize for other important work.
Standing in the Queue:
When traveling to a new place or a tourist destination we don’t know how much crowd there will be. And, standing in the long lines for the travel tickets, exhibition tickets, monument entry tickets etc is very common in such places. So, it will be good to make pre-booking and buy the tickets in advance. Doing this, you will have more time to explore the places.
Shopping and Buying Gifts:
Who doesn’t love exploring the shops in the new places, shopping and purchasing the gifts? If you are not selective and strolling shop to shop then you will end up buying nothing and killing the time. Choose the right time for your shopping and do quick purchasing without spending much time in the shops.
Accommodation:
If you didn’t reserve the accommodation at the right location then this will cost you time as well as money. Your hotel should be near to the major landmarks and tourist places so that everything is within your reach. I would like to suggest you to book your rooms in advance. So, that you don’t have to rush for the accommodation in the last minutes.
If all these things are taken care of, you will definitely save lots of time and can enjoy your journey or a vacation to the fullest.
