The Fiction of Time Constraints

The narrative of not having enough time is critiqued as a fictional story that many tell themselves to justify their choices and life dramas. This notion tends to glorify busyness rather than reflecting reality, as everyone has the same 24 hours in a day. Instead of embracing the chaos, it's essential to address the real issue—prioritizing what truly matters in one’s life. By recognizing this narrative as a limiting belief, individuals can reclaim their ability to allocate time effectively toward meaningful activities, especially personal well-being.
