“A journey of a thousand miles starts with a single step” – Lao Tzu

 

Our lives can get crowded.

 

Families, jobs, responsibilities they all eat up our available time.

 

This can mean we find it harder and harder to make time for us.

 

Hobbies or passion projects slip or are completely scrapped as a result. We justify the trade knowing we just can’t juggle too much at any one time. This is true. Sprinting all the way is good for no one.

 

However, maybe giving up on our passion projects is not the answer. Maybe we can make time for a little each day.

 

5 minutes snatched here. 5 minutes there can soon add up.

 

Instead of relaxing in front of the TV in the evenings we make space instead for our passion/hobby.

 

Or we use our commute as time to do something in line with our passion. Perhaps read something related or listen to a podcast.

 

Make use of what time you do have and don’t give up on those passion projects that are important to you.
