Your Relationship with Time Will Make or Break You

Let’s talk about time. Or more accurately, your relationship with it.

Most driven entrepreneurs feel like time is their enemy. There’s never enough of it. It slips through your fingers. You’re racing, juggling, catching up. And no matter how much you accomplish, the clock keeps ticking and the list keeps growing.

I used to live like that. I wore my calendar like armor and my to-do list like a trophy. But beneath the surface, I felt like I was drowning. Until I made one simple but radical shift.

I realized that my relationship with time mirrored my relationship with myself.

When you feel like time is constantly working against you, it usually means you haven’t defined your boundaries. You haven’t decided what’s enough. You haven’t declared what your “100 percent” looks like. Instead, you let time control you.

But when you set clear rules for how you spend your hours, everything changes.

I got crystal clear on how many hours I want to work each week, how many days off I need each year, and what tasks are truly worth my time. Once I committed to honoring that rhythm, I felt freedom like never before.

Suddenly, time stopped being the enemy. It became a partner. I stopped feeling pulled in a thousand directions. I started showing up with energy, presence, and clarity.

If this resonates with you, I encourage you to take the True Self Assessment. It will help you pinpoint exactly where time is serving you—and where it’s silently draining your energy.

Because when you respect your time, you’re really respecting yourself. And when you master your time, you master your impact. Not by doing more, but by doing what matters.

Get honest about how you’re spending your hours. Redefine what success looks like. And take your power back, one intentional day at a time.
