How to Make Room for What's Important

I learned a new trick about how to make time for what's important. If you feel like you have no time left for what's important to you, try this simple exercise. Write the following down:

My goal is to ____________. I can take out ____________ and ____________ to make room.

For example:
My goal is to exercise 3 times every week. I can take out watching sitcoms and get up earlier to make room.

My goal is to spend more time with my family. I can take out playing golf on Sunday and reduce working late to make room.

This exercise shouldn't take you more than 5 minutes. I hope it helps you to prioritize. Let me know how well it works for you.
