how do i say this

Over the past six hours I've been saying myself that I'll start work in few minutes.

Thank you very much but Shouldn't it be 'Said to myself' instead of 'said myself' ?

"Saying myself" is not acceptable if the speaker is the recipient of the action, in which case you need to add "to" to make it grammatical: "saying to myself." Another possibility (without using "to") is "telling myself":

Over the past six hours I've been telling myself that I'll start work in a few minutes.

Is this your intended meaning?

Or you could say "I've been telling myself for six hours that I would start work in a few minutes."

@ozzourti Yes. Its exactly what i wanted to say. Thanks
@khoff That's more easy. Thank you very much.

You are right. I made a mistake when rewriting it, leaving out "to"
