You along with everyone else on this planet have been guilty of either saying, or thinking the following – “I don’t have the time! There just are not enough hours in the day. Weeks in the month.”
We are all guilty of this thinking and making these statements. So what does this have to do with your dream of experiencing the Workamping lifestyle? Everything! Actually it has everything to do with whether you experience your dreams, or not!
I have been over-heard telling my partner that “I just don’t’ have time to get that done!” Then I begin thinking there just are not enough hours in the day and then I begin feel like a time victim. So does this sound familiar? It should, we humans all experience it and if you can get a handle on your time you will see that it has a pretty amazing effect upon what you can accomplish each and every day.
Let’s take a look at time. Each one of us has 168 hours in every week. No more and no less! Some people seem to accomplish an amazing agenda with these 168 hours, while others don’t ever seem to get out of the starting gate! I have experienced that feeling where the week is over and I look back trying to see what I have accomplished?
Surveys have indicated that on average, this is how people spend their 168 hours each week.
- 51 hours used for sleeping each week
- 50 hours used for work each week (remember I said average)
- 15 hours used for eating of breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks, etc.
- 24 hours used for relaxing, watching TV, playing with kids, exercise, spending time with your significant other
- 4 hours attending church or watching a football game
144 hours total used for what seems to be all of the things that fill up our lives
So what happens to the other 24 hours left over??? That is an entire day!!!!
You see, we can spend an hour or two of those 24 extra hours saying “I don’t have time” when really you do. You have time for what you feel is important to you and your life.
Building your dream to experience to Workamping lifestyle someday can be added to your agenda over the coming week. Allocate time to read. Use some of your hours to take an online course about selecting and buying the right RV. Listen to the testimonials of individuals successfully living the Workamping lifestyle right now.

I can tell you that when I came to the realization, and I stopped using the phrase “I don’t have time!” my life changed and I get much more accomplished each and every week. You can too! It is a decision you must make, and a habit you must change. It only takes 21 days to change the habit.
Take control of your Time Excuseitist! When you are about to say “I don’t have time!” – change your mind and don’t say it, and soon you will find that you don’t even think that way. You will begin to think, when and where will I place that into my scheduled and what do I need to do today to make it happen! It will empower you to reach for your dreams and to make them happen.
Until next time…
