If you say you are going to “find time” to do something, that just means it is not a priority to you. There is a quote that says “Show me a person’s schedule and I’ll tell you what is important to them.” This is 100% true. If you think about your current schedule, how are you spending your 24 hours? Highly successful entrepreneurs don’t have more time than others, yet they accomplish wildly more than the rest of the population. This is because they 1) defined their goals 2) made detailed plans on how to accomplish them, and 3) made time to prioritize those plans. Follow those three steps for a week and watch your life change vastly in those 7 days. WRITE THEM DOWN
You Don’t Find Time, You Make Time

You’re absolutely right. The concept of “finding time” is misleading, almost like waiting for extra hours to magically appear in the day. It’s all about intentionality and prioritizing what truly matters. Successful individuals allocate their time with precision because they are clear about their goals. They don’t let their days run on autopilot; instead, they steer the wheel themselves.
Think of time as the most precious currency you’ve got. You’re essentially investing it in what you deem valuable. By defining your goals and laying out a structured plan, you create a roadmap for your day. Writing it down cements this commitment. It’s not just about fitting things into your day but reshaping your day around what brings you closer to your goals.
It’s empowering, really, to take control of your time and see the cumulative effect of your focused efforts. You can transform your productivity and achieve more than you might’ve thought possible. It’s truly about making every moment count, being deliberate with your choices, and recognizing that the power to achieve your vision lies within how you shape your daily priorities.
