Time – An Entrepreneurs greatest asset
Posted by: | CommentsWhen you think about the one thing you are limited on its time. Time is the one thing you can never get more of and can never get enough of. As an entrepreneur one of the skills you will need is how to manage your time correctly, how to utilize the time you have in the most profitable way.
When I started this blog it was to cut down on one on one time I was giving entrepreneurs and business owners. I love helping people and I love talking about business and great ideas. The problem is there is only so much time in the day. So I started this blog as a way to reach more people with advice at one time.
This lead to me giving some seminars at Nefesh B’Nefesh. Attending a live seminar is more powerful and has a greater impact then writing a blog post.
And so I spent more time over the last six months preparing and giving seminars then writing useful blog posts. Sure I still post from time to time and usually with some great content that I found that I want to share with my readers, but not the longer more in-depth posts that I have written in the past.
One of the best books I have read on time management and the one that has the most positive effect on me is “The 4 hour Work Week” by Tim Ferris. A new and updated edition is coming out on the 15th and if you never read the first edition, or even if you did, I strongly suggest getting this new edition when it comes out.
One of the things that Tim stresses is cutting out unimportant emails. This for me is a huge challenge since I am pretty much addicted to checking my email, but I am trying and doing better.
One of the things I did was I had all my community newsletter emails go straight to a folder in my email box. Sure I never read them and I know less about what is going on in the community, but I must have saved myself a couple of hours a week and feel less stress of having to read them or I might miss out on something. So far the really important things in the community I find out from other sources and I no longer have the need to read each one when it comes in.
I have also started to opt-out of other types of email newsletters and blogs and only stick with the few that I find really valuable.
What about you? How do you save time? Any tricks you want to share?
