why millionaires don't use to-do lists how you can identify your real
priorities and what you can learn from 239 entrepreneurs about time management
these are just a few key takeaways that I'll be covering in the book 15 secrets
successful people know about time management in my productivity and
self-development book review series I've mentioned it so many times before our
lives are just bombarded by things that want to steal our time smartphones
social media the people that work trying to bug you checking your emails text
messages whatsapp's and it's a constant flood of distractions of little things
trying to steal a lot of time and time we don't get back this book covers a
bunch of stuff like avoiding to-do lists finding your MIT and multitasking the
first point I want to cover in this book is the ability to protect your most
valuable asset which is your time there are tons of cheesy phrases about time
like time is money lost time is never found again and they
all have an element of truth in them the time is valuable and you should do
everything you can within your power to avoid wasting it at all costs so one
trick in this book is learning how to say no no no no basically it's avoiding
those people that constantly ask all of you have you got a minute have you got a
minute obviously we all have a minute but we
only have 1440 a day so are you going to waste it on those people that just want
to steal your time the author introduces a concept called that MIT and basically
this stands for the most important task it's suggested that you basically create
an MIT for every day of the week and you have an MIT for that week and an MIT for
that month now once you've confirmed what your MIT
s are you start formulating a plan to get
those done your MIT is basically something that moves you forward in your
life towards your desired outcome so to combine the last point of saying no with
your MIT it suggested that you say no to pretty much everything that doesn't
align with your MIT s and just focus on them the book also mentions the 80/20
principle which I've spoken about in past videos but in this book you're
suggested to focus on the 20% of things that you're good at and only focus on
them and these are the basic ideas to protect your time now the next point I
want to cover would be focusing on delegation top achievers don't try and
do everything by themselves the people that are real masters of time management
focus on delegating tasks that are not suited to them there are three criteria
that are suggested when it comes to deciding what to delegate the first one
is how important is the task how urgent is the task and are you the only person
that can do the task well basically if it's not urgent and you're not the only
person that can do it well then it's something that can be delegated again as
many of these delegation tasks of your plate as fast as possible it's going to
help you focus on your MIT s and get them done as soon as possible
however if the task is important or urgent and can only be done by you you
need to attack it in a organized fashion and your thoughts gests three ways to
manage your time to get this done so the first one if you knowing if you've seen
a few of my things you'll know that I don't necessarily agree with the
avoiding of to-do lists personally I'm extremely strict with what items get on
my to-do list and in my private groups I actually teach people to use three
separate to-do lists but we're not gonna go into that here now the author
mentions that most people have lists with bunches of items that never get
done this is where I actually totally agree most of my private shoes
how well they had to do lists that were completely filled with fluff busy tasks
that don't actually contribute to their big picture goals and there's usually a
bunch of stuff that could be easily delegated to other people
the second point about minimal meetings I definitely agree with everything in
the meeting should be kept crucial and to the point and there should never be a
meeting without a specific agenda also its mentions an idea that I like a lot
that people in the meeting should be standing because nobody's going to enjoy
a meeting or gonna want to hang around and draw out a meeting where everyone's
standing everyone's gonna want to get it done as quickly as possible
so this minimizes the amount of fluff and mucking around in the usual kind of
meetings lastly the minimal email engagement
point the author makes is quite interesting I also find this one very
difficult to do so it suggested that you basically check your emails three times
a day but only for twenty one minutes at a time so that's just over an hour a day
of spent looking and replying to emails the author suggests that anything you
received in the last 48 hours should be replied and dealt with today and then
archived completely up site for easy retrieval later on however there are
some people myself included that's at some point in time you may need to spend
a whole day just organizing that inbox to get it to a point where you can only
spend twenty-one minutes three times a day just cleaning it out and keeping it
in box zero the next point is going back to pen and paper
now as a technology hermit I do like to have my life
in the clouds but there is something special about having things down on
paper for instance when I have a large project that I haven't started yet or a
task that is a little bit overwhelming at first I usually go to pen and paper
and start sketching out the big picture just to figure out what I need to do and
get it all out heads on paper basically just having
something as a way to capture every single thought that is worth taking note
of is gonna be the difference between success and kind of drifting through
life it's mention that there could be a
million dollar idea in your notebook and if you haven't got a way to capture
those things then it's going to fall through the net and never be seen again
there's also some brief mention about productivity time management and health
and fitness in terms of energy levels something I found quite interesting and
I'll be diving into much deeper later on in the year but basically it mentions
that you should track the times of day that you find yourself having an energy
slump and when that happens you should immediately stop working on your MIT s
morning routines are also covered in the book as well and I am a strong believer
that morning routines when they're consistent you can set you up for
success so doing something that makes you strong first thing in the morning
like stretching exercise people like having their green smoothies eating a
bunch of good foods like blueberries or something is going to boost you
throughout the day starting strong in the morning gives you a strong day that
leads onto a strong week a strong month and if consistent are strong here I'll
put a link in the description below for my morning routine course which will
take you step-by-step on how to actually create your power morning routine and
how to stay consistent this book also mentions working in nineteen minute
pulses now this is also mentioned in the book review for deep work and it's
something that I stick to myself after each 90-minute pulse you take a break
you go for a walk or you take some kind of refreshing activity like eating or
going outside just get some fresh air this behavior will keep you alert and
it'll manage your focus a lot better the last point to wrap things up is standing
on the shoulders of giants the book basically has advice from seven
billionaires other high achievers like athletes and entrepreneurs and all of it
around their time management behavior now even though everyone's quite unique
in their approach there are some patterns that seem to emerge throughout
the book the billionaires all basically agreed that maintenance should be kept
to a minimal which has already been covered and the various high achievers
all stressed strategies to avoid multitasking at all costs
so although the some people do pride themselves on their ability to multitask
there are quite a few studies and reasons why it's not a good idea so
maybe if you do more tasks you should avoid that at all costs as well now to
wrap this up this book was a fantastic read I definitely recommend it and the
point made about the 1440 minutes in a day was something that stuck with me
quite deeply actually I made a note behind my desk with number one four four
zero just to remind me that our time is limited and in order to sort of master
our lives we need to be we need to guards how we use our time so those
minutes are very very important so basically learn to focus learn to
delegate and manage your energy levels and in no time you'll be well on your
way to completing your mi t--'s before you go imagine this scenario what if you
had super clear clarity on exactly what you need to do next in life to move the
needle whether its side hustles or side businesses studying or just getting
things done what if you knew how to enter flow state so you could focus for
long uninterrupted periods of time what if you were suddenly someone that was no
longer so easily distracted by things like social media smartphones all of
those annoying things the chlorine for your attention what if you were able to
suddenly tap into motivation control it on-demand sound like a
stretch I used to think so too until I developed a system that can do all of
this and more and that's what I'm gonna share with you right now
see I know exactly what it's like to not be able to get motivated or get started
working on those goals and those dreams that we spend all day thinking about
those things that you know would give you an awesome life if you could just
get started and I speak to so many people every day that feel guilty or
they filter down because all they do is procrastinate and they feel lazy but
it's not laziness that's the problem it's just that we've been lied to about
motivation you don't need motivation to get started
on these big dreams and big goals that you know are going to change your life
you're just lacking a failed proof system they guaranteed to keep you on
track and this is something I've been working on for about six years okay
so teaching the system getting feedback refining it tweaking it and repeat in
that process month of the month and year of the year and it's finally at a point
where I can confidently say that I can bring in anyone anyone that feels stuck
anyone that feels lost or is battling internal friction anybody with chronic
procrastination anyone the knows they can achieve so much more if they could
just prioritize get started and remain focused and it's now at a point where I
know I can guarantee you massive personal results and growth it's a
system that doesn't just teach you but it literally rewires your thinking so
how to beat procrastination so you can finally get started working on those
goals how to find your flow state so you can focus for long periods of time how
to identify long and short term goals that are going to provide you with
massive leverage later in life how to avoid distractions so you're no longer
so easily interrupted we your deep work basically how to become
your own personal success coach keep yourself accountable and become an
action taking beast now if you'd like me to help you implement any of those
behavioral traits I'd be delighted here's how we'll do it I open up about
five slots a week to work one-on-one with people just like you on their
productivity to help you double triple maybe even quadruple your results
there's no charge it's absolutely free and it takes about 60 to 90 minutes for
us to get through this process first we'll get on the phone we'll go over
your current situation and we'll figure out where we can leverage your time to
get the biggest results and once we have those raw materials I can help you come
up with a step-by-step strategic plan of action but this is not for everyone okay
if you want a quick fix and you're not willing to put in any work whatsoever
this is not for you however if you can follow instructions and you're massively
ambitious but you don't know where to get started then we can talk here's what
I want you to do next if you meet the criteria and you would
like me to help you implement these tried and tested methods of productivity
I'll happily set aside some time to speak with you but time is a factor okay
I have to limit how many free sessions I give away each week because of the
amount of time needed to help you improve your results so its first come
first serve it's almost impossible for me to work with more than a handful of
people at any one time so if you think this opportunity is right for you
there's a link below that will lead you to my 30 second question now to make
sure we're a good fit for each other I want to fill that out now and look
forward to speaking with you
you
