Busy people…

“Busy people always have time.” I first heard this sentiment in my mid-20’s and strongly disagreed. I had a full-time job, was an active volunteer in my church, and had a circle of single friends that did activities nearly three to four nights per week. I didn’t have extra time. In fact, I was wondering how I’d ever find time to get the things done that seemed very important to me. 

In the last ten years, I’ve gotten married, had two kids, have a significantly more engaging job, and wonder what happened to all the free time I had then, because certainly I don’t have any extra now. 

Over time, I discovered that the statement is true. Busy people figure out how to use time well. Because of that, they can also make time for new things fairly easily. Once they decide something is important, they figure out how to work it in.
