Your dilemma goes deeper than having a shortage of time, it's basically a problem of priorities. Most people leave undone those things that should be done, while they do things that they shouldn't be doing. Consider this little illustration and see how much we spend on trivial things and less to lucrative prospect.
It is said that all man though born unequal share one equal phenomenon and that is TIME – the 24 hours of the clock. The rich, the poor, the lame, blind, hurt, the president of united states of America and the poorest lad in Africa all share this same phenomenon and equal in space. But the difference lies in “how” they utilize it. While the president thinks how to better himself as well as the lives of his subjects the lad thinks of himself alone.
If all men has equal right to this 24hours then how do we spend it is a question we all should Selah about. Let’s divide twenty-four hours by three i.e. (24 ÷ 3) = 8, we would get an equal answer of eight a piece.
So lets philosophize how well we have been spending these eight hours in terms of lucratively or just prodigally.
Eight Hours for SLEEP – and no one messes with that
Eight Hours for WORK – that could also include anything we do for a living i.e. school, is included.
Seeing that work and sleep is covered what do we use our remaining eight hours for? Many get caught in traffics, watch movies to while the time, do some things that barely put money into our pocket and at the end of the day complain for not having enough time.
Set priorities for your goals. A major part of successful living lies in your ability to put first things first. Most major goals are not achieved because people put second things first.
Is what your doing getting you closer to your objectives? Anything that is wasted effort represents wasted time.
Don't serve time, make time serve you.
