Take Hold of Your Time


Being busy is seen as a wonderful status for a business owner. To most it means that you are making money, clients are knocking down your door and you are really grinding to develop the empire you wish to achieve. In many cases that is not it. You are busy doing something but it is not making you money or bringing in the clients that you want to have.

What are you doing?

Are you consumed with the thousands of emails in your inbox? Did the meeting you scheduled take longer than you expected? Were you invited to all the hottest events in the area, so you want to attend them all?

If you answered "YES" to any of these it is time to make some serious changes. What is your mission and passion for that business? When you know the answer to that, then make it your driving force. You have to plan and create the time needed for your success.

For just this week take the time to carry around your planner and don't just write in appointments but record each thing you accomplish. Time yourself as you do certain task to see how much time it eats out of your day. After a week evaluate what you accomplished, time you used and then create a detailed schedule for yourself so that you can fit all the necessary task in your day.

This will show you how you currently treat time and what can be changed right away.

Don't just busy for the sake of it. Make sure you are productive.
