What is the best excuse you have heard lately?
I don’t know if I can call it, the best excuse. But it’s definitely the most common one. “I don’t have the time to do(xy&z)!”
Now, don’t get me wrong. We are very busy in today’s world. Trust me. So am I. But the reason why I bring this up, is because many people use this excuse as a reason not to do something important that can really help their lives.
Like I have suggested to people, if they want to go back to school. Telling them that they could study online. The busy person on the go, is exactly who online universities are made for. Then, they’ll say, No, I don’t have time. But then whenever I see these people, if they are off work that day, they are standing in the way of the grocery store aisle, gossiping about somebody’s business! Just talking and talking. Then, you continue your shopping, getting ready to go to the register, and that person is still in the same spot, on that same aisle!
I saw this person and started thinking to myself, the energy you are putting into listening to someone else’s business, you could be at home studying, earning a degree to better their lives and careers.
