The Clock Is Ticking
Tick Tock, Tick Tock, The clock is ticking. I am talking here about the clock of life.
As a Consultant, Trainer quite often I and others hear the question, why is so and so better at doing business, Why does Richard Branson, Donald Trump, Sir Alan Sugar etc have moree money than me. And another big one why can these people get more done in a day than I can get done in a life time.
Well lets get one thing straight here, each one of those people have the same seconds, the same minutes and the same hours than everyone else in the world.
As the clock strikes midnight we all begin the same, we are on an equal path, some people do not have an extra hour.
So how do others get more done than other people, well the answers are simple in away, some get others do work for them, in this buisness we call it out sourcing, while others work that extra hour or two.
If you have a Lunch hour and are still at work, take your lap-top with you and a mobile phone and make a few calls in the lunch break instead of going off to the pub with work mates. OK you might have fun made of you, but in a years time it will you who will be taking that extra hour at lunch time as you have left your job and are now self-employed , so they will not be laughing at you any more.
In an evening instead of watching three or four hours of television or going to the pub, work on your buisness.
Another way is to make a to-do list, and stick to this list. A tip here is to make the list the day / night before so the next day you can start on your to – do list when you can.
The above are only some of the ways where you can make more time for yourself without extra hours in a day. Let me give you a simple example, the average person watches four hours of TV a Day, so over a 7 day period that is 28 hours, well over a day. They spend 6 hours in lunch breaks we are now up to 34 hours. Now if we take the 34 hours and times it by 4 the number of weeks in a month we get an extra 136 hours which equals an extra 5 1/2 days a month. WOW.
So no more excuses you do not have the time, if you give up a few lunch times and stop watching TV, you will be able to spend more time on your business and very soon you will be able to say good bye to your day job.
Hope this has helped a few people out there.
