Tip #2: Dating Efficiency
Use Your Dating Time Wisely

by Ramon Johnson

As resources become more limited, our lives are becoming more efficient. We thirst for more conscious
 everything: cars, appliances, materials, and our personal and professional time. Industries and individuals
 can no longer afford waste of any kind.

Still, despite the limitation of resources, our needs and desires change little (if at all). In relation to romance,
the need for companionship remains constant yet the availability of the personal time and energy available
for dating dries up faster than an SUV gallon. We’re working longer hours, planning bigger, and wading
just above the surface of a crude environment. So, where do we find the time to look for a date?

In times of limited resources, we must manage dating the same as other areas of our lives. The anticipation
of finding a man and the excitement of a potential match is great, but it can become an obsession when we
spend countless hours refreshing our inbox, hoping for a new message.

Instead, use your time more wisely with a proactive approach. Set time limits for yourself and be direct
about your interests and disinterest. Try not to view your search as a stressor, but an experience that will
eventually produce a return on your investment. A better-managed dating approach will optimize your
resources and balance your life, making you a better catch in the long run.
