86,400 sec. in 1 day: Time Management

86,400 seconds per day
Time Management

There are 86,400 seconds in every day. How do you use your time every day? You can’t save that time from day to day, the balance doesn’t carry over to the next day. What if you thought of those seconds as actual money? You don’t get those seconds back, so don’t waste them. What’s interesting about these 86,400 seconds every single day is that every one of us has the exact same amount of seconds in a day. Not every person has the equal amount of money to work with, so we are not on a fair and even playing field with money. With time we all have a more level playing field, so it’s up to us to maximize it daily. I know people are thinking well rich people have a lot of time, and others say they don’t have time because they don’t have money. Some self-made millionaires actually made their money by learning to value their time, and being very efficient with their time management. How are you investing your time? How are you using Time Leverage to your advantage? Each day you get to start over with 86,400 seconds and it quickly goes by each and every day, to understand this point, let me recommend that you watch the short flash movie at the website www.thetimemovie.com
How do you make the most out of every day? You have to learn Time Management. You need to learn priorities. You need to learn what priorities are most important and why. Also pick up on which priorities can be done in parallel with one another. Throughout the weeks I will discuss what is a time waster, and time saver in respect to your daily 86,400 seconds each day. Writing down goals and to do lists are also great ideas to get more things done in a day, but just that isn’t enough and the reason is that a random list of 100 things to do every day is not enough, you need to list it in order of priority, what’s most important to get done. In the business world often what is most important is not always what costs the most money or makes the most money, sometimes it’s as simple as 1 step that is holding up three other people in a business deal. I believe many people can have many different opinions on what top priorities are for each and every person’s lives, so over the coming weeks I will try to provide some of my thoughts of daily priorities. What I am seeing more than every before these days is people that are taking up other people’s time because they are inefficient or simply are not in a hurry to get things done. Being a person that values my time, whether I have other things to do that day or not, it’s a pet peeve of mine that people move so slowly.
