How to find the time you need…
The 4-Hour Workweek is so important to absolutely anyone looking to improve their life this post will run into a number of parts!
You’ll know from previous posts that Wizzer (yes, that’s me) was fortunate to be the Weekly Winner at Create Business Growth a few weeks ago and I chose “The 4-Hour Workweek” by Timothy Ferriss as my prize. (Sadly I’d not heard of this best seller at the time but thought the title sounded interesting). At that time I was posting about being in the “zone” and how things you need manifest themselves at the right time. I also said that I’d undoubtedly find something in the book that was appropriate to my needs.
Wow – what an understatement!
This book is essential reading for ANYONE
looking to make improvements in their lifestyle
For years I’ve been making excuses to myself for not doing things due to a lack of time, you know “I’ve got too many important things to do – that will have to wait” – steady, I think I saw you nodding in agreement
Well not anymore!
Although I am very familiar with a few of the concepts Tim writes about; Pareto Principle (or the 80/20 rule); Parkinson’s Law (activities expand to fill the time available) and for years I have not read a newspaper either, I have never considered taking such a radical approach.
Following Tim’s suggestion I have drawn up a list of my best clients (in my day business) and have made a decision to concentrate on only them. The time this will save me will be incredible – time I can devote to being effective in moving my life forward.
I’ve also set up a system for minimising the time spent on idle chit-chat at the start of any phone conversations and to prevent email interruptions during the day. I’m taking a leap of faith with this but have every confidence it will work out.
I’ll be posting more about my progress and with reference to this essential book over the coming weeks.
Christine – I can’t thank you enough for this.
