That Familiar Sunday Feeling...
You know that feeling. It’s Sunday evening, the weekend is fading, and you’re looking at the week ahead. You think about everything you have to do—the work projects, the family commitments, the errands. Then you think about everything you want to do—read that book on your nightstand, finally start jogging, call an old friend, or just have a quiet hour to yourself.

And then the thought hits: "How am I going to find the time for all of this?"

We say it all the time. We talk about time like it's a set of car keys we've misplaced. We hope that if we just look hard enough, we'll stumble upon an extra hour or two. But if we're being honest with ourselves, that magical "found time" never really shows up, does it?

Here’s a small shift in thinking that can change everything: You will never find time. You have to make it.

Why We Feel Like We're Always Running Out
Think about it. Every single person, from a CEO to a student, gets the same 24 hours in a day. So why do some people seem to be in control while the rest of us feel like we're constantly being pulled in a million directions?

It's because we let our day happen to us instead of for us. When you're in "finding time" mode, you're basically waiting to see what scraps are left over after everyone and everything else has taken its piece of your day.

Let’s put it another way. You wouldn't just hope you can find the money for your rent or groceries; you set it aside because it's important. You allocate it. Making time for your goals, your health, and your happiness requires the exact same deliberate choice.

So, How Do We Actually Make Time?
It’s not about becoming a productivity robot or scheduling every second of your life. It’s about making a few conscious choices.

1. First, decide what actually matters.
There’s a huge difference between being busy and being productive. Busy is answering every email the second it arrives. Productive is finishing the one report that will actually move your career forward. We need to get better at telling the difference. Ask yourself: "What are the 2-3 things that, if I do them this week, will make me feel genuinely good and accomplished?" These are your priorities. The rest is just noise.

2. Protect your time like a bulldog.
Once you've decided to spend an hour on something important—whether it's working out or writing a business plan—you have to protect that time slot. In our world, that’s a battle. Every phone notification, every "got a quick question?" from a coworker, is trying to steal that time. It's okay to put your phone in another room. It's okay to tell someone, "I can't right now, but I can help you at 3 PM." You're not being rude; you're being intentional.

3. Be a detective of your own time.
If you feel like your time just vanishes, try this simple experiment. For just one day, jot down what you're doing every half hour. No judgment, just be honest. You might be shocked to see how those "quick five-minute" social media checks add up to an hour, or how much time is lost just switching between tasks. This isn't about making you feel bad. It's about showing you where the leaks are in your boat so you can patch them and start steering where you want to go.

Let's Talk About It
Ultimately, making time isn't just about getting more stuff done. It's about making room for a life with less stress and more joy. It’s about having space to breathe, to think, and to connect with the people and activities you love.

So, let’s get real. I’d love to know what you think.

Be honest—does that feeling of "never having enough time" get to you? How does it make you feel?

What's one small thing you do to actively make time for something that genuinely makes you happy?

And in this crazy, always-on world, what’s your biggest enemy when it comes to focus? Is it your phone, your email inbox, or something else entirely?

In most conservative or third world countries parenting is extremely toxic. The newer generations often realize how toxic their home environment is and how unhealthy the parenting is. They often talk about going through extreme stress and mental health issues due to this.
But at the end of the day, if you ask for your peers' opinion or advice about the societal pressure to respect and obey your elders no matter what, they will still tell you that you should "love your parents because they birthed you" or "they were raised differently so we should understand them but they have no obligation to understand us, no matter what they say or do" or how much they sacrificed for us.
For example whenever someone comments on social media about corporal punishment being encouraged like in india for example, the people opposing it the most are fellow indian youth. They claim "they didnt end up as criminals because their parents bet them up with slippers". So the same people that know and go through the issues caused by these traditions are also the ones supporting it. Why is that?

@TM

It's like saying we play basketball and I am the referee hahaha stfu plz you made me laugh seriously .

You should learn how to debate with the people, TM. A constructive debate always has rules. It is not your public chat where you can abuse or assert to write essays to shut my mouth up. You should not participate in a debate if you disagree with the rules on the first place. A debate is not a sport nor it is played, make common sense.

I replied on each and every false thing you said with links and evidence from the Quraan and sunna ..

What if I considered The Koran as legitimate source ? I will show why it does not change the argument. But ofc this will be mine last reply to you as you disqualified to yourself and I do not have time to answer what you write further. You always write what you want to and interpret any verse without citing a single weblink.

now you don't wanna accept it

Now or always ? It is written in the topic initially. Apparently, you did not bother to read the rules

Treatment to disbelievers -

"˹Remember, O Prophet,˺ when your Lord revealed to the angels, “I am with you. So make the believers stand firm. I will cast horror into the hearts of the disbelievers. So strike their necks and strike their fingertips.”
"This is because they defied Allah and His Messenger. And whoever defies Allah and His Messenger, then ˹know that˺ Allah is surely severe in punishment."(8:12-13)

Source - https://quran.com/8?startingVerse=12 (this is how someone writes if they have to post a source; they do not just write (8:12-13)). This is what a weblink is.

"So when you meet the disbelievers ˹in battle˺, strike ˹their˺ necks until you have thoroughly subdued them, then bind them firmly. Later ˹free them either as˺ an act of grace or by ransom until the war comes to an end. So will it be. Had Allah willed, He ˹Himself˺ could have inflicted punishment on them. But He does ˹this only to˺ test some of you by means of others. And those who are martyred in the cause of Allah,1 He will never render their deeds void."

Source - https://quran.com/47?startingVerse=4

Public lashing of fornicators -

"As for female and male fornicators, give each of them one hundred lashes,1 and do not let pity for them make you lenient in ˹enforcing˺ the law of Allah, if you ˹truly˺ believe in Allah and the Last Day. And let a number of believers witness their punishment." (24:2)

Source - https://quran.com/24/2

Beating women -

That verse is already mentioned in the wikipedia link I posted first. You failed to counter-argue after making 14 record posts. You did not even care to quote it. You brought your own assertions and then you tell me what I wrote is false.

Also, the contradictory verses were written in the same webpage. You failed to even quote them as well.

evidence from the Quraan

You cannot even spell Koran/Quran correctly and you read it five times. Huh ?

A forum like this https://forum.effectivealtruism.org/topics/extraterrestrial-intelligence is enough for you to think aliens exist.

You failed to counter-argue over the conclusion of NCBI research -

Conclusion: Saudi girls attain menarcheal age earlier than their mothers, reflecting a downward secular trend in menarcheal age.

So, Mother's puberty age > Daughter's puberty age. In Ayesha's time, it was around 15.74. Do the math with Cuzick test for trend (0.049).

@ODIN said in Can Islam really teach ethics to anyone ? Think again.:

I understand your point, perhaps you have learned alot from different legit sources about islam and koran itself.

The reference links of the page - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criticism_of_the_Quran#Notes

Ibn Ishaq is different legit source ? Every islamic work depends on him. In fact, he was the first guy who wrote biography on Muhammad

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ibn_Ishaq

And you came to conclude about how intolerant the quran and islam is toward women and other religions. Thats a good step toward knowing the truth about islamic religion.

The proof is always backed up by evidence. It is very simple to say I have thousand ants in my cupboard. If I tell this to everyone, almost 100% people will ask for the evidence. They are not going to believe me. When people opened my cupboard and recorded the video and showed it to me, I tell them you get to know cupboard does not have any ant. Different sources describe it has ants.

If you wont mind perhaps i would share how i understand islam, koran and different sources describing about this religion

I do mind this. When I mind this, I don't want you to teach me.

Talking about Quran and intolerence toward woman and other religions, in my point of view, i find Koran is actually shows us how blessed woman is in many ways.
The Quran, the holy book of Islam, indicates that both men and women are spiritually equal. The Quran states: "Those who do good, whether male or female, and have faith will enter Paradise and will never be wronged; even as much as the speck on a date stone."

BTW I said all people to argue with evidence otherwise you will be disqualified. Read the rule 2. I am not gonna answer any of your reply.

@TM

And fight in Allah’s way those who fight you, but do not commit aggression—Allah does not love the aggressors...Surah al-Baqarah
And kill them wherever you overtake them, and expel them from where they have expelled you. Oppression is more severe than murder. But do not fight them at the Sacred Sanctuary, unless they fight you there. If they fight you, then kill them—such is the payback for the unbelievers.
MUSLIMS SHALL ONLY FIGHT WHEB OPRESSED AND PUSHED BY VIOLENCE FRON THIER HOMELAND FOR OPRESSION IS MORE SEVERE THAN MURDER AS ALLAH SAID.

Allah forbids you not, with regard to those who fight you not for (your) Faith nor drive you out of your homes, from dealing kindly and justly with them: for Allah loveth those who are just. MUSLIMS ARE NOT ALLOWED TO ATTACK THOSE WHO DO NOT ATTACK THEM BUT ONLY TO FIGHT BACK OR PREPARE FOR A FIGHT IN A WAR OR GHAZWA WHICH MEANS INVADING THOSE WHO ARE WILLING TO INVADE US OR WILLONG TO PUSH US OUT OF OUR HOME AND FIGHT US IN OUR RELIGION .

You too violated rule 2 multiple times. As I have already said, don't assert without evidence. I am not gonna answer this. Proof by assertion is a fallacy in logic. Your other arguments contain a forum link which is not an encylopedia nor a individual research website so I dismiss your all arguments. I do not want to read them. I just did read blue letters aka links.

(You cannot cite an unauthentic website especially which lacks any reference. Encylopedias and research websites bring more weightage of evidence to other websites. Do not assert w/o evidence.) Islamic sources has islamic content isn't that a simple common sense thing for you to understand ?

BUT YOU SIMPLY NEEEEED TO BRING ANYTHING YOU CAN TO SHOW THAT U ARE ARGUING WHILE I HAD NO LOGICAL REPLY TO FEEL LIKE A WINNER . THAT'S WHAT LOSERS USUALLY DO.

Who can teach us ethics ? The one who himself married, 6 years old Saudi Arabian girl Aishah and slept with her when she was 9 years old ? Or the one who had 13 wives ? : 3) And if you fear that you will not deal justly with the orphan girls, then marry those that please you of [other] women, two or three or four. But if you fear that you will not be just, then [marry only] one or those your right hands possess [i.e., slaves]. That is more suitable that you may not incline [to injustice]. And give the women [upon marriage] their [bridal] gifts[161] graciously. But if they give up willingly to you anything of it, then take it in satisfaction and ease.[162] And do not give the weak-minded your property,[163] which Allāh has made a means of sustenance for you, but provide for them with it and clothe them and speak to them words of appropriate kindness.(6) And test the orphans [in their abilities] until they reach marriageable age. Then if you perceive in them sound judgement, release their property to them. And do not consume it excessively and quickly, [anticipating] that they will grow up. And whoever, [when acting as guardian], is self-sufficient should refrain [from taking a fee]; and whoever is poor - let him take according to what is acceptable. Then when you release their property to them, bring witnesses upon them. And sufficient is Allāh as Accountant.
AS YOU CAN SEE ALLAH HAS FORBIDDEN MARRIAGE BEFORE THE PROPER MARRIAGEABLE AGE ( PUBERTY) SO THE PROPHET DID NOT HAD SEX WITH HER BEFORE SHE HIT PUBERTY OTHERWISE WE WOULD HAVE SEEN ANY SIDE EFFECTS TO SUCH ( RAPE OR SHAMEFUL ACT ) AS YOU WOULD LIKE TO THINK .

(I do not think I have to prove that they are not the words of God because it contains a lot of contradictions, absurdities, inconsistencies, errors already. God would not commit such mistakes like humans since he is supposed to be an intelligent being.) ALLAH indeed is the almighty superior creator and this claim of yours has a perfect reply in the quraan : (46) So have they not traveled through the earth and have hearts by which to reason and ears by which to hear? For indeed, it is not eyes that are blinded, but blinded are the hearts which are within the breasts. Indeed a blinded heart is the cause of all sickness that's why the minds can't see the deep connection between the verses for they are blinded by their sick desires and weak soul that is eager to live here forever and thinks their will be no return to Allah after death : Then did you think that We created you uselessly and that to Us you would not be returned?" ...

(People who think Quran is the word of God, also think that humans cannot decide what ethics are and only their holy book can decide them) Replying to this : And it is He who produced you from a single being, then a repository, then a depository. We have detailed the revelations for people who UNDERSTAND. Unfortunately the english dictionary cannot 100% reflect the meanings of words such as " تتفكرون ، تعقلون ، تفقهون ، تتقون ، تنظرون " All those words encourages the human being to Think , contemplate , understand , comprehend , see ( mindfully ) rationalize etc... all such words are mentioned in Quraan as Allah mentioned in soura Al-Baqara (53): And [recall] when We gave Moses the Scripture and criterion that perhaps you would be guided. As you can read the word GUIDED is the main reason for why the revelations were revealed to the prophets . The Quraan and Bible and Taorat and Zabor and Abraham's scriptures all are for guidence for us humans، to rise spiritually, psychologically and mentally and build a chain of ethics and social laws to be helped and saved . This is the path of Allah that we should follow with obedience or otherwise Satan will take over our will and heart and lead us to perish then go with him to hell .

Replying to this : "O People, it is true that you have certain rights with regard to your women, but they also have rights over you. Remember that you have taken them as your wives only under Allah's trust and with His permission. If they abide by your right then to them belongs the right to be fed and clothed in kindness. Do treat your women well and be kind to them for they are your partners and committed helpers. And it is your right that they do not make friends with any one of whom you do not approve, as well as never to be unchaste."
