Just like with money, many people grow up with the belief that time is scarce. We may not even realize we hold this belief. Yet these kinds of thoughts slow down and can even destroy many spirit based businesses.
Most people don’t think about using tapping this way, but it works! Some setup phrases to try are:
Even though I’m so busy and don’t have time to build my business, I’m willing to be kinder and more compassionate to myself anyway.
Even though I want my own business but don’t feel like I have the time to build it, I’m choosing to relax a bit more anyway.
There IS a Solution
One of the main things that blocks solutions from becoming clear is a belief that one doesn’t exist. That will melt your dreams faster than ice cream in the New Mexican sun.
Once you’re feeling a bit more open after tapping on time scarcity, try tapping for opening to solutions presenting themselves.
Even though in the past, I didn’t see how I could build my business, I’m open to the possibility of finding time to build my business now.
Even though I don’t know how I’m going to create time to build a business, I choose to reconnect with my passion for my business anyway.
Even though I’m not sure where the time to build my business would come from, I choose allow my inner resources to help me.
Once your belief systems have shifted, creative solutions do some up. This is attraction principles at work. When you begin to believe that you could find a way – even if you don’t know what it is yet – to build your business, things start to move in a whole new way.
Some examples from my clients:
- A man attracted new responsibilities in his job that paid him to learn the skills he needed to grow his business.
- A woman went to a 4 day work week and used Friday to develop her business.
- A woman saw the option to start a new business – one that got started very fast because she already had the network she needed.
Energy psychology tools like EFT allow you to step out of boxes you were approaching your start up with. And when you do .. well, I invite you to explore that possiblity.
I would love to hear your experience with this. Do you feel time crunched when it comes to your business? What have you tried?

Hi Paul,
Interesting topic on time. I just read something not that long ago about time not being scarce only that we think it’s scarce. Where was it? Abundance book?
I’ve got plenty of time for my business in any one day. My mind, though, loves to explore new things, to investigate, to create. Chunks of my day may be spent on a learning mission. Is it a waste of time if it’s not directly related to growing my business? Probably not since a month or a year from now I may devise a life shop and use material found on one of these explorations — the so-called impractical side of life.
Humans are a lot more other worldly, mystical than we acknowledge. Just think it’s repressed. Sometimes it feels like time moves backwards or sideways or in parallel with the alleged real time.
Why can’t we change our notion of work so it fits with the true nature of being human?
I guess I diverged in a yellow wood …

Giulietta,
There is enough time – and money, sex, etc. Sounds like an abundance book to me.
Like you, I also give myself the gift of personal development time. Reading, learning and keeping my mind fresh allows me to focus on my work when it’s work time. It’s the old quality vs. quantity conversation. I find I have more of both when I allow myself to be a big hearted, curious human.
Thanks for adding your thoughts Giulietta!
