I have no time

One has a clock, the other has time. You cannot have both.
I have no Time
Sometimes I cannot find the Time to do something.
Obviously I cannot find it because I already have it (roughly 24h a day). It is just a question of whether I take the time to do something or not. So any time that you hear me say:
- I don't have the time to do that right now."
- I am so busy with other things that I cannot..."
- I don't know where to find the time to do that therefore..."
it is a plain lie.
If I would be honest I would say something like:
- I have higher priorities and will therefore not take the time that you are asking from me.
- I believe that I like doing other things more right now.
- There is other stuff that is way more important which is why I consciously choose to not do this and instead do that.
Will this change anything? Yes, it brings back honesty and relaxes our troubled conscience.
Want to try out how this works? For a start do not say it out loud because it puts people off. In the beginning say it your mind only. Every time that you want to start saying "I don't have the time to..." hang on for a second and think whether this is really true. Analyze your intention and motivation. And if business keeps you from doing whatever else, read this.
It sharpens our sense for Time and the way we prioritize life.
