Today I'm going to be talking about
this concept of time...Here's the most common thing I hear all the
time...hehe that was punny...Anyways...(ignore the stupid joke)
People always say I don't have time
“____” fill in the blank, you could literally put anything in
that empty space, and what I'm about tell you right now is that it is
all a lousy... EXCUSE!
Before I give you the best way to
approach this situation, I want you to think about something
important. Everything in life is timebound. Seconds are ticking away
as I type this blog post and I would say it's a valuable part of my
day that I spend, but I do it anyway because I find it more important
than doing something else.
There will always be time constraints,
and people wonder why successful people, even though it appears that
they are SUPPOSEDLY should be super busy appear not to be. Why is
that?
Here's the million dollar secret....
They PRIORITIZE their time. For
Example, let's say a buddy of yours asks why they didn't see you the
previous night. Instead of saying “I Didn't have time,” get in
the habit of saying “I didn't prioritize my time.” This is
because we do have so much time on our hands, 24 hours actually. You
can prioritize time to do virtually anything and it really comes down
to what you do with the time you are given. Usually, when someone
asks me for time, I simply tell them when I can MAKE time. You are
incontrol of making time for yourself, you just need to be
disciplined and a good habit is to actually track the amount of time
you spend doing things.
Productivity stems from a lot of things
including your sleep, nutrition, recreational activity (not saying to
smoke weed kids, its a huge time waster by the way)
So here's the exercise I want you to
try; track your time to the TEE of everything you do. When you wake
up, time yourself how long it takes to get ready. When you eat
breakfast time it, ect every little minute thing you do (even when
you take a shit) you must track it down. Do this for a whole week and
at the end of the week look to see your time log on how much time you
spend on things. You may be surprised how much time is being wasted
on things. Try not to change any habit you do the first week, you
really need to see for yourself from another eye, so to speak of how
much time you are able to manage.
Best,
