Stop saying you dont have time!

This week I want to talk about something that I have used for a excuse quite a few times. Before I finally started getting a schedule going. And that is saying the excuse I don’t have time to learn blank. Now between school and work. I don’t have all the time in the world to schedule out and get stuff done. So how do I make time to write this post. Do homework program and work on math ect. It’s not that hard. The first thing you need to do is get on a schedule. The reason for this is because it’s going to allow you to asses just how much time you have for specific activities. It’s also going to give you focus and motivation to continue to work on specific projects.

For me, that was getting up around 10 am before going to work and blocking out specific amounts of time to work on what is more important that day. Then head to work and then if needed work on things after work. Now here is the next part where you will begin finding the time. So, let’s say you have a family or work going to class whatever the case is. Now during all this, there is always going to be some sort of time. Even if its small as 10 minutes. Use it you will be surprised just how much you can get done in about 10 to 15 minutes. For me as if I have 10 to or 15 minutes of time at work in between downtime or breaks and even lunch. I take it and either program work on a chapter of learning math or whatever else needs to get finished. And while this short amount of time may seem like you did not get a whole lot done as the day comes to an end and a day turns into a week ect. You will be able to see just how much you accomplished.
Now there are also a few videos that if you're Interested I suggest you watch. While one of them Too busy to learn blender. Is not exactly on topic Andrew price’s advice is something that I personally use every day. In his video, he talks about exactly what I am discussing here. And gives some really good advice.

Secondly, I suggest checking out this other video. It’s a speech from Admiral William McRaven. This one is a bit hard to put into words. I just suggest you watch it and see for yourself. As it will tie into the part of taking and setting your goals for the day. The video is called change the world by making your bed.

Lastly, as I mentioned in my last post I wanted to begin sharing what I worked on this week. This week I worked on a short program. Called triple triangles it’s a simple calculator that will tell if a set of numbers is apart of the Pythagorean triple. https://github.com/gwartney21/TripleTriangles-. And as always thanks for reading the post. And I will talk to you all next week.
