“I don’t have enough time to do ______.”
You fill in the blank.
How often do you tell yourself this?
Is it actually true?
I’m convinced it’s not.
Here’s what I’ve discovered:
I do have enough time—enough to do what truly matters today. The rest? It can wait. It will get done, just not all at once. (Centering prayer has taught me to slow down and calmly realize this truth. With God as my partner I will get done what needs to get done.)
At work, my to-do list easily holds 20 to 30 tasks at any given moment. Can I do all of them today? Absolutely not. And that’s okay. What I can do is choose the three most important tasks and focus there. Once those are done, I revisit the list and choose the next priority. One step at a time.
Right now, I’m in the final editing phase of my second book. My goal is to submit the manuscript to the publisher by August 1st, or at the latest, September 1st. This means editing 2–3 chapters a day, six days a week. It’s a “must-do” in this season of my life. When the manuscript is finished, I’ll shift that energy to the next important project for Silence Teaches.
So the next time you catch yourself saying, “I don’t have enough time,” try replacing it with:
“I have enough time to do what matters most today.”
Then go do it.
You’ve got this.
