Do you have enough time? If you don't, I'd ask how you're currently using it. Time freedom belongs to the kind of man you probably want to be. He decides where his time goes. Are you doing what you've decided to do or is your day eaten up by the decisions of others? Do you get roped into things? Are you jumping from crisis to crisis?
These questions are a gift, from me to you. The gift of time spent in honest reflection. I'm asking, to give you back a moment of your precious time to feel your reaction and let it sink in. Let's try a couple more.
Does it feel like every time you're about to make progress, something goes wrong and you're back in your rut? When's the last time you had fun with friends? When's the last time you put a couple hours into your hobby?
Many men can relate. Time freedom is a luxury that flows from knowledge, skills, wisdom and character. A lack of time freedom means a lack in one of those 4 pillars.
When men meet in brotherhood, one thing that happens is honest feedback. We get critiqued by men who know us well because they see areas for growth they believe we'd benefit from acting on. It's uncomfortable. Growth in general is uncomfortable but it's a far better companion than stagnation.
To change your relationship with time, you've got to start treating it differently. Plant yourself somewhere nourishing, where growth is encouraged.
