So You Do Not Have The Time Eh?

There are always obstacles and excuses in the fast paced world we live in that somehow always seem to prevent us from doing what we really want to do. In all probability most people would rather be working from home doing something they love but for whatever reason they often find themselves doing the opposite.

At times is can feel like you never get a minute to yourself, your schedule is full, your alarm goes off at an early hour, your commute time runs into hours every day, you are frequently asked to carry out some overtime to cover the increasing staff shortages and when the day is finally done, you are exhausted.

You probably do your very best to uphold your family time in the best way you can and appreciate that when the weekend comes round, you would like to spend some time on rest and relaxation before the dreaded Monday morning blues comes round again and it becomes a case of repeat same.

There are three common obstacles that crop up over and over again when it comes to being able to break out of the well grooved rat race you seem eternally stuck in and explore an opportunity to start a business of your own, even if it is part time at first and the first problem seems to be never being able to find the time.

Here are ten things to bear in mind when you next utter the phrase, I do not have the time.

1. Did you know that you have 168 hours a week at your disposal, allowing for 52 hours on average spent sleeping and 40 hours spent working you still have 76 hours per week unaccounted for.
2. 76 hours per week equal 3,952 per year
3. 3,952 hours per year equal 164 days
4. 164 days of the year equals 45% of the year available
5. Almost half your time is spent working and sleeping, which leaves you almost half the time every year in which to do something different.

6. Time is the most valuable commodity there is because it can never be replaced.
7. In most cases time can be found by swapping unproductive activities for productive ones.
8. To find just two hours a day could earn you an extra
$10,000 – $50,000 per year.
9. If you were asked to work overtime by your boss, you would most probably find it from somewhere.
10. How you can actually reach your life goals if you never find the time to?

It was Woody Allen that said 90 percent of success is showing up, and in some respects you can understand that statement when most people conjure up the same excuse of hiding behind the old adage of not ever having enough time.
