Life has been busy for the past while, but I have come to realize that to a greater or lesser extent, life will always be busy. You have time for the things you make time for, and you’ll always be too busy for the things that you don’t.

So, the first thing to do isn’t necessarily making time, but rather choosing what is important enough, to you, to make time for. After you have figured out what you want to spend time on, then you can work on making that time available.

Think over what’s important to you and put some time toward it, even if it’s just 15 minutes. The first step in travelling to a destination, even before you take your first step, is to turn yourself toward that destination. Walking a different direction will not get you there.

I just published my first novel, ‘No Trespassing’, a science-fiction action adventure, at Smashwords, so I’m pretty excited about that. Here’s the synopsis:

“In the near future, while running from his past, John stumbles onto a cave containing a WWII era soldier’s skeleton clutching an advanced device with unknown capabilities. Soon he meets a mysterious woman with a link to the device, and a powerful government director who is desperate to find it, but what is its purpose, and who can he trust?”

You can read the first six chapters (About 20%) free online (Or downloaded in ebook format), so give it a read. If you like it, it’s currently only $4.99, available in PDF, MOBI, EPUB, and several other formats.
