Is that not accurate? There’s only so many hours in the day, and I have to split them between competing priorities.

If I don’t have time for something, I don’t have the remaining hours to spend on it, given the time I’ll spend doing other things.

You have no choice but to spend all your 24 hours in the day. You can't just skip over 7--9 AM and then have two hours in your back pocket for when you are short on time.

So no, you never just have time you're not using anyway. You're always using all of your time. On what is a matter of priorities.

However, if you would spend 19--21 watching a TV series, or twiddling your thumbs, you can choose to take that time to do something else.

"take" is weird wording too. it's your time, you already have it. it's just how you use it.
