The most common excuse people give: “There’s not enough time.” They claim they’d love to start a company, learn an instrument, market an invention, write a book, or whatever, but there just aren’t enough hours in the day.
Come on. There’s always enough time if you spend it right. And don’t think you have to quit your day job, either. Hang onto it and start work on your project in your spare time.
Instead of watching TV or playing World of PS, work on your idea, instead of going to bed at ten, go to bed at eleven. We’re not talking about all nighters or sixteen hour days, we’re talking about squeezing out a few extra hours a week. That’s enough time to get something going.
Once you do that, you’ll learn whether your excitement and interest is real or just a passing phase. If it doesn’t pan out, you always have your daily job. The risk is minimal and as long as you have not made any heft investments at least you tried.
When you want something bad enough, you make the time, regardless of your other obligations. The truth is most people just don’t want it bad enough or don’t have the confidence in the reality of this actually happening hence not following through.Their ego is then perfectly protected with the excuse of time.
Don’t let yourself off the hook with excuses. It’s entirely your responsibility to make your dreams come true!
We Said This: The perfect time never arrives. You’re always too young or old or busy or broke or something 🙂
