Are you making the excuse that you don’t have enough time to do the things that you desire?

Ask yourself this: have you ever wondered why some people do a ton of work in such a brief amount of time and still have time left to do the things that make their life excitable and enjoyable?

Understand this: these people are no different from you physically, they may have the same amount of energy (or even less) as you do and in fact, they may have many more tests, challenges, and goals that need to be worked on through in their day.

Time is not your problem.

Everybody has the same 24 hours within the day.

The problem is the lack of effective time management.

The people that are much more effective than you don’t have 25, 26, or 30 hours in the day.

So, we’re going to focus on getting you more organized.  After studying the patterns of so many successful people, I have discovered that there are 4 simple steps to create routines, enhance your productivity and get in back time.

How does this differ from other books on time management?  Here, I provide you with a systematic way to look at your day.  Breaking down how you mismanage time, based on 4 common components, you will develop the tools to reclaim hours back during your day and week.  Components that are so simple that you will wonder why you didn’t incorporate them years ago!

Imagine, having the time to do all the things that you desire and still have some to spare.

What dreams or goals have you put on hold because you THINK the time to do it is not there?

Let me tell you, it’s more plentiful than you realize!

How do you know this book is for you?  Are you the type of person who says:

“My workday is so busy, I barely have the time for my family let alone myself.”

“It’s impossible to be a working parent, have a full-time job and be able to do the things that you want in life.”

“It’s selfish to take the time for yourself when you have others that are depending and relying on you.”

There is a bright side to things. You are more than capable of achieving what you desire in your life. With a focus on time management and the tools that I will provide, you will be well on your way towards your desired goals!

I will show you how to look at your time in a more productive way. Once you do this, you will begin to see that you have more of it than you realize. 

Take back your day and run it effectively and efficiently. 

When you read “Effective Time Management”, you will look back and realize that the small investment that you have made in yourself today will be miniscule compared to the goals that you will achieve because time will no longer be an obstacle!

EFFECTIVE TIME MANAGEMENT

4 simple steps to

create routines,

enhance your productivity,

and get back your time

Time Management

There are four big reasons why people fail to either start the process of trying to achieve their goals or simply quit when trying to achieve the goals that get them towards their overall outcomes in life.

These four reasons are:

People saying, “I don’t have enough time in the day to deal with my desires.”

People saying, “I don’t have enough money or finances to do what I want to achieve in my life.”

People saying, “I don’t have the understanding or knowledge to be able to achieve my dreams.”

People saying, “I haven’t started or completed my dreams because I don’t want to fail.”

Let’s look at some statements that you may have told yourself or had others tell you, particularly related to negative thoughts around time:

“My workday is so busy, I barely have the time for my family let alone myself.”

“It’s impossible to be a working parent, have a full-time job, and be able to do the things that you want in life.”

“It’s selfish to take the time for yourself when you have others that are depending and relying on you.”

There is a bright side to things. You are more than capable of achieving what you desire in your life. With a focus on time management and the tools that I will provide, you will be well on your way towards your desired goals! I will show you how to look at your time in a more productive way. Once you do this, you will begin to see that you have more of it than you realize. There are pockets of time throughout your day that can be optimized to make it more efficient and effective for you.

Ask yourself this: have you ever wondered how some people do a ton of work in such a brief amount of time and still have time left to do the things that make their life excitable and enjoyable?

Understand this: they are no different from you physically, they may have the same amount of energy (or even less) as you do and in fact, they may have many more tests, challenges, and goals that need to be worked on throughout their day.

The problem is not a lack of time because everybody has the same 24 hours in the day. The problem is the lack of effective time management. The people that are much more effective than you don’t have 25, 26, or 30 hours in the day. So, we’re going to focus on getting you more organized throughout your day.

You will start by understanding where you are at right now.

You do this by writing down everything that you do in your day for the next 72 hours. The reason why I encourage 72 hours is because your daily activities may change day to day. I want you to maximize your chances for success by incorporating the majority of the things that you do throughout your week.

Doing this was one of the biggest things that helped me become more efficient in my day. Realizing how much time I spent on the computer, watching TV, or doing other nonproductive things, was an eye-opener! By doing the exercise, I realized I was wasting 20 hours a week on TV shows, Facebook, and useless web browsing. Imagine having almost an entire day back in your week for the dreams and goals that you desire.

This is the importance of writing things down instead of thinking about your day and trying to mentally evaluate it. By writing things down, you are less likely to overlook or forget something. I’m confident that you are ready to make the investment in yourself and see how you can make your day more time efficient. Think of the 72 hours as a minor investment that will give you back hundreds, perhaps thousands of hours. More time for yourself, family and love ones, and the dreams and goals that you have.
