'Busy' has become a competitive sport — and it’s a sport with no winners. Somewhere, underneath all of this hard slog, are the things we really want to do. The things that bring us joy and give our lives meaning. More often than not, the only thing stopping us getting on with those things is ourselves. Our lives don’t have to be as complicated as we make them …
I Don’t Have Time explores the excuses we make that keep us from getting on with the things that really matter to us.
Using humour, anecdotes, research into productivity and our proven ‘My 15 Minutes’ exercises, this is a practical guide to ditching overwhelm and making progress in all the areas that matter most — our health and wellbeing, our careers, relationships, finances, home environments, personal development and recreation. It flips the notion that we need great swathes of time to get ahead with things, instead encouraging us to use the nooks and crannies in our day to achieve big things over time.

Alison AbernethyThis book spoke to me from the very first page. Finally, a time-management book for real people by real people. It was interesting and engaging with stories and anecdotes that made me laugh, cry and nod my head in agreement. If you only read one self-help book this year, make it this one.
Emma Grey & Audrey Thomas have each been running successful small businesses offering training and coaching in life-balance, leadership and change since 2009, and together created the popular and life-changing My 15 Minutes program in 2013. What started as a simple idea is now evolving into a range of programs to meet the needs of busy people ... at work and at home.
Emma Grey
is the author of Wits’ End Before Breakfast! Confessions of a Working Mum and Unrequited: Girl Meets Boy Band (a novel that she wrote because her teen daughter hated reading but loved Harry Styles). She writes regularly for Australian and international media and offers practical, realistic solutions to the modern challenge of ‘having it all’. She lives near Canberra, with her teen daughters and little boy.
Audrey Thomas
is an experienced coach and facilitator, whose corporate career spanned the UK, Europe and North America. She works with people to discover and develop their potential and improve effectiveness and lives in Adelaide with her Welsh husband, Dafydd and their two young sons.
In 2016, Emma was handed an unexpected challenge when her adored husband, Jeff, died suddenly. We wrote the following in the Epilogue of I Don’t Have Time:
When you lose the love of your life, it can bring you to your knees. It can completely destroy you. Or it can bring you to your feet.
When we interviewed Rebecca Sparrow for our ‘15 Minutes That Changed My Life’ speaker series she told us about losing her baby daughter, Georgie. ‘Somehow, Georgie was going to turn the light up in my life, not down,’ Bec had said.
Emerging from the first few weeks of shock and devastation, Emma decided to do one life-affirming thing, no matter how small, every day – beginning with rearranging the flowers people had sent into beautiful bouquets and delivering them to a hospital with her children.
We also thought about the words we’d written in this book. Did this shattering tragedy change anything? Did it alter our perspective on life?
Yes, it did.
Jeff’s loss is turning up the light in our lives, not down. We want to be better people. We want to do more. Experience more. Live more.
We’re more committed than ever to the ideas we’ve presented in this book. We want to procrastinate less, focus more sharply, reach higher and further than we ever have without a backwards glance at our insecurities and fears, because life is short. Life is precious.
The time we have is a gift. Take it and turn up the light.
I Don’t Have Time is designed for busy women seeking a practical way out of the ‘chaos’ of modern living. The strategies in the book are realistic and easy to implement. With engaging, real-life stories, case studies and 15-minute action tasks, we’ll help you shed the excuses you make that hold you back from living a life you'd love.
This fresh approach to personal productivity helps you beat overwhelm, perfectionism, procrastination, ‘comparisonitis’, fear of failure, fear of success and more. Read it only if you’re willing to get really honest with yourself about why things aren’t ideal, and make simple changes to turn your life around.
You think you’re not enough
You’re worried you’re falling behind, or below expectations. You’re holding back in case you fail. You’re scared you don’t know what you’re doing and you’re going to be found out.
You think you’re on your own
Everyone’s relying on you, and you struggle to ask for help. You’re overwhelmed with all you have to do. There’s so much on your list, you can’t seem to get on with anything. You find it hard to say ‘no’, and you’re exhausted.
You think you’ve got to get it right
You always give 100% on everything. You procrastinate in case you get it wrong. You second-guess your work and your decisions. If you can’t get it right, there’s no point trying.
You’re feeling stuck
You’re trapped in an unhappy situation. You’re avoiding the next step and scared of change. You can’t let people down. You wish things were different, but you truly believe there’s no way out.
You’re worried it’s too late
You’ve left your run too late to change course now. You’re scared to take a risk and start again. You’re worried of people’s judgement — particularly if you fail. You’ve been in your comfort zone so long you’ve lost the way out.
You thought it was just you
No-one knows about your secret struggles. Everyone else seems to have an easier time. You’re tired of measuring yourself against other people and wishing things would change. You’re ready to make a difference, in manageable steps.
Why should I buy this book?
You’ve tried time-management and personal productivity approaches before. Nothing seems to stick, and you find yourself falling back into old patterns. I Don’t Have Time tackles the beliefs that underpin our time-wasting behaviour. We help you uncover the surprising ways that you over-complicate your own life, and give you simple, practical tactics to recalibrate how you do things.
