ANY TIME!!!"
As in:
"I'd like to attend an Islamic class this weekend, but
I've just got so many things to do."
"I'd like to buckle down and get proactive in getting
married, but I'm just so busy with school."
"I have big dreams to do social work, but I'm just so
busy with everyday life."
"I'd like to spend more time with my kids, but I just
don't know where the time goes."
"I'd like to get in shape but I can't find time to go to
gym."
Im living my life pay check to check and I cant find
time to learn how to make more money.
Here are my top 7 tips to eradicate the TIME excuse for you :
Fajr
It can seem like a daunting task to sit down and really think about your
goals in life and how to achieve them, but it must be done. If you have
nothing to look forward to in your life, the likelihood of mastering your
time is slimbecause there is no reason to!
Get up early and start your day after Fajr if you can. I cannot stress
enough how huge of an impact this will make in your life. You will
literally take half your life back by staying up because there is so much
barakah and so many blessings in those early hours.
It may be difficult at the beginning to resist the temptation of your
comfy bed, but as you make it a routine, your body will naturally start to
feel drowsy and shut down earlier at night so that you are able to get
enough rest.
Fresh Air
For a start at least, get a notebook, and every night before you sleep,
write down the 5 most critical tasks you need to accomplish the next day
in order of priority. It will free your mind greatly, leaving more time to
focus on figuring out and working toward your life goals.
Many times, I have risen early and excited to get going on a productive
day, only to sit on the couch and fall back asleep because I had no idea
where to start, or what my day ahead would look like. Then I wake up
an hour later and lament on the time I wasted and how Im so behind
now.

Tips:
1. Devise a daily schedule, where you have 2-4 pre-determined 15-minute
time blocks to check and respond to your messages. Stick to it.
2. Unsubscribe to any lists, feeds you dont read regularly.
3. Turn your alerts off. People will survive if they dont hear back from you
within 30 seconds.
4. Dont grab your phone (if its not already in your hand) and open Google
search, the second a thought pops into your head.
Give yourself a 10-minute time delay when the urge to look up
something online appears. Trust me, the world will not turn upside
down if you dont find out why gas prices have jumped three cents, this
exact second.

Get moving
You dont even need to go to the gym or start running or anything super
intense like that (although, if you can, go for it). Just get up out of your
chair. Turn your face away from that glowing screen, stretch your legs
and take a quick walk.
It might just be up and down one flight of stairs, around your house or
around the block. Do some stretches. Open up your posture and loosen
up your muscles for a few minutes before heading back to the
grindstone.
Youll be in a better frame of mind when you get back to work. And the
little bit of work time that you lost in this short break will be more than
made up in the increased productivity youll get out of it.

Health
Instead of getting a gym membership, hire a personal trainer who will
schedule your workouts FOR you. I guarantee that youre more likely to
to work out than if you left it to your own 'conscious' mind.
Or with regards to food how about signing up for a meal delivery plan
where they deliver the healthy meals straight to your house. It's all
coming to you automatically.
Contribution
Set up a monthly automatic withdrawal to your favourite charity- you
can set it up with your bank and never have to think about it. If you
were to consciously give charity, you would probably give charity once a
year and that's about it.
Or how about, instead of trying to remember to purchase a gift for a
family member, schedule an automatic ecard, for example, on the date
you wish it to be sent.
Study/Work
When it comes to study, instead of trying to motivate yourself to study,
make a study date with a friend.
At work once you delegate something to someone, set yourself a
reminder on your email/ smartphone to follow up on the task then
forget about it. Two days later you get the reminder and the world will
think youre the most organised delegator ever!
All youre doing here is make a conscious choice to automate your tasks
from the get go, freeing up your mind to take on the more exciting
activities in life.

Conclusion
Time is one of those things that is easy to become complacent about. It's
free. It keeps coming to us every day. But it's actually our most precious
resource. Because once a second passes us by we can never get it back.
Our time is priceless. And our time in this world is what we use to
attain success in both this world and the next.
So don't underestimate the effect of implementing even just a few of
these tips. When you can change how you use your time you are
literally changing your life.
