Hi Everyone - here's a simple no cost tip that will help you create time to do the things you really want to do!
Everyday people are heard saying I wish I had more time. They run through from task to task and event to event at light speed, trying to find ways to do and accomplish more.
Some people seem to accomplish far more than others in their day, week, and lifetime. Benjamin Franklin was a successful author, politician, scientist, philosopher, printer, inventor, activist, and diplomat. His accomplishments are astounding. He was a scientist known for his theories and discoveries and gained the recognition of fellow scientists and intellectuals.
He was a political writer and activist, and served as a diplomat during the American Revolution. He was a newspaper editor, self published author. Postmaster General, and started the first American library. His credits go on and on.
Benjamin Franklin is even credited for the statement; ‘Time is money.’ How did he find the time?
The good news is there is no more time! How can that be good news?
In this respect, the playing field is level.
Everyone gets the same twenty-four hours in a day.
Your competition has no more hours in a day than you.
The richest man cannot buy even one more minute of time in a day!
You can only manage yourself and activities more effectively.
In a typical forty-hour workweek, it’s estimated that the average person spends:
1.7 hours looking for things
1.0 hour rescheduling appointments and tasks
1.4 hours wasted because of rescheduled appointments and tasks
2.2 hours wasted because of disorganisation and lack of priority This is a total of more than 6 hours wasted due to poor planning and a lack of organisation.
When people are asked why they are not organised, the number one reason given is:
‘I don’t have the time.’
The fact is, people choose to be disorganized. Most people could save this wasted time by spending just two hours a week organising and planning. In just two hours of planning, you could free an additional three to four hours every week of prime time. Use this simple no cost strategy and give yourself time with your family, time with your friends, time to relax or whatever it is you want to do? Remember to FAIL TO PLAN is to PLAN TO FAIL!
