Quora知识分享|二十出头，如何避免浪费时间？

I feel that I'm wasting my life. I’m a student in my early 20’s with few friends. How can I change this situation?
From：Barun Mohanty
I had almost no friends for a year and half. I used to think “I am just full of shit”.
我有一年半的时间几乎没有朋友。我曾经认为“我就是一坨屎” 。
I found out the things what I could not do during that time. I always asked myself a big “Why?”
在那段时间我发现了很多我做不到的事情。我总是问自己一个大大的“为什么?”
The “Why” was about “Am I wasting my time?”
“为什么”是关于“我是在浪费时间吗?”
“Are others living a happy life. Why can’t I?”
“别人都过着幸福的生活。为什么我不能?”
I had no choice to make. I never liked to go to a party and moving around doing nothing and hanging out with friends.
我别无选择。我从来都不喜欢参加聚会，什么事也不做，也不和朋友们一起闲逛。
I spent that time in studying beyond my college syllabus. I learnt skills which nobody imagined at that point of time.
我把那段时间花在了超出大学教学大纲的学习上。我学到了当时没人能想到的技能。
I just read, read and read.
我只是看书，看书，看书。
I got a bit more intelligent than almost everyone. I knew things those other people of my age didn’t know at that point of time.
我变得比几乎所有人都聪明。我知道那些和我同龄的人在那个时候不知道的事情。
That didn’t change my situation.
这并没有改变我的处境。
Sometimes I thought “I must go to Himalayas and join the Buddhist community”. That was laughable.
有时我想“我必须去喜马拉雅山，加入佛教界” 。这很可笑。
Time flew.
时间飞逝。
People got busy in their daily lives. All of their happiness were gone. Because student life was different. The real world hit everyone hard.
人们在日常生活中变得忙碌。他们所有的快乐都消失了。因为学生生活是不同的。现实世界给了每个人沉重的打击。
But, time didn’t change for me.
但是，对我来说，时间并没有改变。
My laptop was my only friend. And it was.
我的笔记本电脑是我唯一的朋友。确实。
I had made a habit of “Gaining knowledge”. And I had found happiness in that. Whether it’s freelancing, investing or people’s skill. Most of the time I was doing that. Of course I got better with time.
我养成了“获取知识”的习惯。我从中找到了快乐。无论是自由职业，投资还是人们的技能。大部分时间我都是这么做的。当然，随着时间的推移，我变得更好了。
And suddenly, people started communicating with me, people started traveling with me. I made some good friends. Life became beautiful and happiness was overloaded.
突然，人们开始和我交流，人们开始和我一起旅行。我交了一些好朋友。生活变得美好，幸福已经超载。
But I never changed my habits.
但我从未改变过我的习惯。
From here I want to convey TWO things:
从这里我想表达两件事:
1. If you don’t have any friends, that means the frequencies don’t match. You might be more mature. Or you might be doing something unique that beyond others imaginations. So, don’t worry ! As life progresses, you will find like minded people. You will make friends and be a part of the society. 分页标题
如果你没有朋友，那就意味着频率不匹配。你可能会更成熟。或者你可能正在做一些别人想象不到的独特的事情。所以，别担心!随着生活的发展，你会发现志同道合的人。你会结交朋友，成为社会的一部分。
【Quora知识分享|二十出头，如何避免浪费时间？】2. Second thing is “Progress is addictive !”If you are not making progress, you get bored. So, engage yourself in learning. If you learn early, you don’t have to learn later.
第二件事是“进步是会上瘾的!”如果你没有进步，你就会感到无聊。所以，让自己投入到学习中去。如果你早学，就不必晚学。
