I'd Rather Go for a Bike Ride

We all have the same 24 hours. But how we think about those hours makes all the difference.

I used to feel victimized by time. Like, there was never enough. Like it was happening to me instead of for me.

But somewhere along the way, my thinking shifted.

I stopped seeing time as something that passes or runs out. I started seeing it as a tool I get to use to create experiences, do good work, learn new things, and enjoy myself.

That shift changed everything.

Here's what I've learned:

Watch your language. If you're constantly saying "I don't have enough time," you're reinforcing that belief. Instead, start noticing where your time actually goes - and celebrating when you spend it on things that matter.

Question your chores. Are you using your most productive hours on what's most important? Or are you making the bed and folding laundry first because you think you should? Do the important things first. The rest can wait.

Examine your habits. Where are you losing time without realizing it? Scrolling at lunch? Looking for your keys every morning? Small changes add up.

People have given me a hard time over the years because my house isn't perfect and my laundry piles up. Those comments used to bother me.

Now I know: I'd rather go for a bike ride with Greg than have a spotless house. I'd rather build a business I love than check every box.

Your time is yours. Be intentional with it.
