Stop Waiting for the Perfect Moment; Use Different Time .
Let me guess, you have a project you'd like to start. You’re “thinking about” journaling again. You’ve had the same book half-read for six months, and you’ve been putting off making that doctor’s appointment for the last 4 months.
You’re not lazy. You’re not undisciplined. There’s just a lot going on, and in the rare spare moments you do have, you’d rather fill them with something relaxing or fun. Maybe you’re just waiting for the perfect time.
Newsflash: It’s not coming. But different time? That is available.
Different time means:
Using your drive home to build instead of yelling at other drivers steam.
Learning something new while doing what you’re already doing.
Trading “I should really be doing…” for “Let me do this for 10 minutes first.”
Want to change your habits? Don’t overhaul your life, sneak small shifts into the time you already waste (no judgment, we all do it).
Here’s the reframe: “If I can spend 45 minutes scrolling rabbit holes, I can spend 10 minutes on something that matters… and still scroll for 35.”
Give yourself the win before the dopamine hit. It’s not about guilt, it’s about growth.
