Create More Time
Time is our most valuable, non-renewable resource and we rarely feel like we have enough of it.
Below are some ways you can create more time in your life WITHOUT waking up earlier;
Say “No” More Often
If you feel anything less than “hell yeah!” about something, say no.
Creates rules for yourself ahead of time (ex. I never accept meetings outside of my work hours).
Get Good at Planning
Set aside one hour on Monday morning to plan/schedule everything for the week— then, honor it.
Prune Your Schedule
Commit to removing frivolous activities.
Remove unnecessary meetings.
Buy Time
Pay for products or services that free up your time if you can (ex. Hiring a cleaning service or landscape company).
Spend Less Time in Your Head
Don’t second guess your decisions to do any of the “time and energy giving” acts above.
Question: How much time and energy would you gain if you never second guessed yourself or your decisions?
Action: Dedicate 1hr on Monday morning to plan out your week.
Create a to-do list (be sure to include non-work activities)
(Actually) Schedule the items in your calendar
Throw away the list once everything is scheduled (it’s as good as done once it’s scheduled)

“Time is really the only capital that any human being has, and the only thing he can’t afford to lose.” —Thomas Edison
“Time is a gift that most of us take for granted. We get so caught up in the busyness of our daily lives that we rarely stop and take a serious look at how we’re spending this gift.” —Cheryl Richardson
