🚨 This might be the reason you’re always tired — and it has NOTHING to do with your job.
Read that again.
If you live in a metro city and spend 2–3 hours commuting every day,
you’re not just losing time —
you’re leaking energy, health, and mental clarity.
This is what long commutes actually cost you 👇
• Constant fatigue, even after sleep
• Shorter patience with family and colleagues
• Poor eating and exercise habits
• Less time to think, plan, or just breathe
• A feeling that life is always “on pause”
Most people justify it by saying:
“I’ll get a bigger house farther away.”
“I’ll adjust.”
“I’ll manage.”
But here’s the truth:
You’re trading daily energy for extra square feet — and that trade is brutal.
The real upgrade isn’t a promotion.
It isn’t a salary hike.
It’s choosing where you live wisely.
If you’re planning life in a big city, remember this:
1️⃣ Optimise for TIME, not space
2️⃣ Keep your commute under 30 minutes
3️⃣ Treat location as a life decision, not a real estate decision
Because careers change.
Cities evolve.
But energy lost every single day never comes back.
⏰ Time > Space
