I Don't Have Time

I can't take credit for this idea, but I had to pass it on.

Instead of saying "I don't have time" try saying "It's not a priority" in its place.
  • It's not a priority to clean my house.
  • It's not a priority to check up on my family.
  • It's not a priority to read a book.
  • It's not a priority to just sit and talk with my spouse.
  • It's not a priority to exercise.
  • It's not a priority to keep myself healthy, or get healthy if I've been lagging.
  • It's not a priority to do something I truly enjoy.
  • It's not a priority to call you back.
  • It's not a priority for me to pray.
Kind of changes the way it sounds, doesn't it?
Obviously, there are times where we simply "don't have time." But if I'm honest with myself, it seems the reason I continue to neglect certain things is because I'm just not making it a priority.

Pick something you've been neglecting and work on it. I already have something in mind for myself.
