How many times do we tell people we would do something if only we had more time? Don't we all have 24 hours in each day....the same amount of time as the next person? Think about it.
What you are really saying is that you choose to not include the whatever it is in the 24 hours you are given. It is always a matter of choice. Pleading lack of time to do your chores, call your friends, rest, see your family, read a book.....all those things you put off doing.....is dishonest, isn't it? We are all free to choose how we spend our 24 hours. Even if you work 12 hours a day, you have made a choice. I suggest we get out of the habit of blaming and making excuses, and instead, own our own power. WE CHOOSE.
The second step is to make sure that the choices we make are in keeping with who we really are. Are we thoughtful, compassionate, spiritual, creative, for instance? Should not our choices we make of how we spend our 24 hours, reflect our values?
"Time is a created thing. To say 'I don't have time,' is like saying, 'I don't want to." Lao-Tzu
