Making the Most of Your Time

Just a quick thought for the day but if I'm ever going to a business meeting I want to know two things: 1. What is the purpose and 2. How long is it going to take.  The reason is the time value of money.  A powerful exercise for you that I recommend is calculating how much your time is worth per hour and factor that in when you're making decisions on things.  Always be thinking about that. Over time, it will become second nature and you'll invest your time on the things that matter.  Also, try to always set a quick agenda if your calling a meeting, even if it's on the back of a napkin.  The reason is it will keep you on task and will show respect to those you are meeting with.  Lastly, if  you don't already make sure you start your day with a to do list and prioritize those items so that you spend your time effectively each day.  I use an abc ranking system, with a taking the highest priority and c taking the lowest.  That way at a quick glance I look for a's and make sure they're knocked out first.  Best of luck managing your time better and more productive days for your future.
