The most frequent excuse I hear is “I don’t have enough time”.

• I don’t have enough time to read
• I don’t have enough time to excercise
• I don’t have enough time to work on my side project
• I don’t have enough time to learn a new thing
• I don’t have enough time to get a proper sleep
• I don’t have enough time to cook a proper meal
• I don’t have enough time to…

What you don’t have enough is courage. Courage to admit that behind that excuse hides the simple truth – whatever it is, it’s not on top of your priority list. It’s not important to you.

AND THAT’S FINE.

Some people don’t like to read books or excercise and that’s fine. Our society has narrowed down the things you SHOULD pretty much to the list above. I think that’s bad, but I share my thoughts another time.

If you don’t want to do something, please stop saying you don’t have time and instead speak the truth.
