As you can tell from my title, and my posts, I do not like time travel. But one thing that I've noticed that I strongly dislike, is the fact that thinking about time travel affects how people react towards life. Time travel can become an excuse for why you are failing here and now. I know that I've had moments where I thought, "I'll be better in the future," or, "When I grow up I will be a billionaire." I might say these things, but I will not start taking the steps to reach those goals. I believed that I would reach my goal with no effort.
Time also became my excuse. I thought that as the days passed by, I would become a better person. I knew deep down that doing nothing was not the way to learn how to become better, but I still did nothing. The idea of time travel makes doing nothing easier to rationalize. People most likely won't be thinking, "when scientists learn how to time travel, I'll be first in line to change my life," instead it will make people think that time doesn't matter. This is a big problem for me. My life used to consist of fun and games with stressful nights to get the homework done that was due the next day. I didn't even study for tests. I had large amounts of time but I never used it wisely. I felt that time didn't matter, and this belief influenced me to delay any work that I had to do.
