I always hear people say that they don't have the time to look for a new job or consult with a personal board of advisors or make that extra call to an important contact. BS, let's get real!
Debunking The Time Myth
I always hear people say that they don't have the time to look for a new job or consult with a personal board of advisors or make that extra call to an important contact. BS, let's get real.
When you say "I don't have time," just admit that you are really saying "I don't want to. Other things are more important, and I am not courageous enough to admit that fact to myself and others." You make time for what is important to you! When someone says he doesn't have time to work out, I might say, "Come on, you found time to eat dessert, didn't you? You could have used that time to do five push-ups." Think about the last time you said you didn't have time for sex. Was it because you didn't have time or you just weren't into it?
Bottom line, you have time to connect with others for success if it's a priority.
