TIME

As mentioned in the headline at…

Time equalizes.

Time does not discriminate.

Time is not prejudice.

Time waits for no man, woman or child.

And how you “use” your time right now determines to a large extent how much freedom you will have later.

For example – you might be reading this from a cubicle. You made a time decision in the past that determined where you would be spending your time today.

You might be reading this from prison…gulp…well…you made a time decision in the past that…uh…landing you in your current situation. (Although, you and I both realize you’re innocent!)

I made a time decision a few years ago and so I am writing this from Disney.

How we managed our time in the past leads to today’s position. Today’s decisions will determine what happens tomorrow, next week and next year.

The key is taking control of the time you do have and using it to select your future.

Because there’s no time to waste.

“Experts” call this time management. But it’s really self-managment. You cannot control time, you can only control what YOU do with your time.

My son is choosing to watch Sports Center while I type. He’s watching, while I am working. (He’s a kid – no big deal.) But those of us who want to get ahead and get on with life need to choose wisely. And then we need to maximize our time. We need to get more done in less time.

Which is why I put this together….

Listen, it was 3 pm on Wednesday.

I had one hour before the family would be home from school. One hour before leaving for the Magic Kingdom.

It would have been easy to go back over the packing list. It would have been easy to say, “Ahh, I can record ‘Get More Done’ when I get back.”

Instead, I thought, “Hmmmm, I bet I can record the audio. Encode it to MP3. Convert the DOC to PDF. And upload it all in under 60 minutes.”

It took 63 minutes. But it got DONE. I’m a time machine!

Where I am today is not an accident. Its a result of the right investment of my time.

If you want to control your time better.

If you want to become more productive.

If you want to eliminate distractions.

If you want to obliterate procrastination.

If you want to work from a villa at Disney. (Hey, no promises, but it’s obviously possible.)

But do not wait. Time is short. (And the price goes up tomorrow.)

Success is NOT an Accident,
Paul

P.S. Time is money. The sooner you learn to control your time the more freedom you will gain. The more you can get done in less time.
