Many people are astonished by how many things I do in my spare time but honestly, I don’t see what the problem is. When it comes to doing those little things you love to engage in, there is always time. People get so consumed in life, that when it comes to actually living, there are some many questions of how to fit it all in. Time is a strange thing, but it can be managed.

When it comes to making time for the things you love, you have to consider many things as I’m sure we all know. Things like school, work and travel time but we can work around these things. Obviously, there are certain things we can’t change in our schedule but there are the other activities we can plan around. If you are reading this you probably think I am insane. I mean, considering all the hours of work etcetera, how are you supposed to fit it all in you may be asking. Its honestly quite simple.

We can’t just throw what we love aside when it becomes too busy in our daily lives and seems too complex to fit in. I mean if you look at it this way, I’m sure you will agree. Let’s put it into perspective… you are in a relationship, and you must work even harder to make plans to see your partner as work or school is consuming a lot of your time. You decide you cannot do it all right now, so you start to dis regard the relationship as you don’t have another option when it comes to work or school. It is not fair on you or the other person. Therefore, I have made my point.

Once you have found that hobby or passion or just anything that takes fills your spare time in your day, you are expected to stay persistent in regards to what or whoever that may be.

What I’m talking about though in today’s blog is passions as many people ask how I fit everything in. It is always the same answer though. “I love it so I make it work.” In my mind, no matter what life throws my may I will be sure to know that the one thing I love doing is somehow going to fit in my schedule. As you all possibly know by now, I have a reasonably fixed schedule when it comes to university and studying but I use this schedule to create a more pleasurable schedule that actually makes my week look not too bad.

Here is a sneak peak to one day of my schedule…

Wake up at six

Training session

Horse ridding

Uni class

Assignment time

Free time that I can do and fill with whatever is needed, maybe a dinner with friends or family.

I get told that I am absolutely crazy for waking up early to do my exercise but sometimes you need to see how you can adjust your routine. Like I said, I make it work.

All I am trying to say is that you need to learn how to manage your time and schedules to be able to fit in the other things that make you look forward to the next day. Some people live for those moments. You should always have those moments in life. It may feel like a struggle to wake up earlier for example, but it will eventually become a regular and familiar occurrence. It is important to me to be able to do the things that make me happy because then even if it is the worst day in the world, you know that passion that makes you happy will still be there for you when you eventually reach it.
