I’ve realized there’s a big difference between having time and MAKING time because if I waited until I had time for everything that matters to me…a lot of it simply wouldn’t happen. 

I don’t magically have extra hours for Pilates and tennis, building a business, creating content, being present with my kids, pouring into friendships, or taking care of myself….especially right now when my time feels more precious than ever. So, I’m learning to be much more intentional with it. 

Here’s what that looks like for me: 

I put it on the calendar: If something matters to me, it gets an actual place in my day not just a spot on the mental “hopefully” list.

I’ve stopped waiting for the perfect amount of time: 20 minutes of Pilates counts. An hour working on my business counts. A quick coffee with a friend counts.

I accent that making time for one thing sometimes means saying no to another: In this season, prioritizing is key. 

I’m definitely still figuring things out, but one thing I know for sure: you probably won’t ever just “have” time for everything that matters to you. Sometimes you have to decide what deserves your time and make room for it. Time is too precious not to ♥️
