Father Time


Make time work for you...it's the one thing in life you will never get back.

"I'm too busy for that" or the more passive-aggressive "I don't have time to ..." are probably two of the least credible, and illegitimate phrases you hear uttered by man and womankind daily.

Why? Aren't a lot of people indeed very busy?
Yes.

But we all have the same 24 hours, how come some people are able to make them work effectively, and "have time" for all the "mundane" things others claim not to have time for?

People exist who lead all sorts of busy lives, who have demanding professions and/or families and/or lots of extracurricular commitments; yet they still seem to have time to answer an email/text/call, or read a newspaper ... or take a shower...or do their nails, etc...you get the point!

I don't have amazing time-management skills but even at my busiest point in life when I was holding down a very demanding job in Capital Markets and appearing on MTV simultaneously, I *STILL* had time for friends, and to eat, and to travel, because I wanted to make time...if you don't want to do certain things it's another matter, just know that no one believes the "no-time" excuse especially because there is something called "multi-tasking" most of us are aware of, so be more creative if you must be an excusinator.
