This week’s question from my portal “The Neagle Code: Directions
for Life” comes from someone who wishes to remain anonymous.
Hi David!
How do you find the time to do everything that needs to be done to actually make more money?
Thanks so much!
Hi and thanks for the fantastic question!
I learned a long time ago that we can’t manage time…we must manage activities.
You see, work will always fill the time you allot for it. This is why one of the first things I teach my VIP Clients is the fine art of calendaring.
Let me explain… as entrepreneurs, there are so many things that can bombard us on a daily basis. Whether it’s making sales calls, handling client satisfaction, fulfilling orders or programs, marketing planning or dealing with our personal lives, there is ALWAYS something to fill our time.
One of the key strategies to ensuring money-making activities get done is to schedule those activities every day, and STICK TO YOUR SCHEDULE.
Start with calendaring the “non-negotiable” items first. These items can be up-coming travel, presentations, and other activities that are firm.
Next schedule all your money-making activities. These should include sales calls, strategy and launches.
From there schedule everything else.
In doing this you may even come to see that you actually have more time than you need or you may see opportunities to hire people to help you with the things you do not specifically need to be doing.
Once you have your schedule in place, you must discipline yourself to stick to it!
Sometimes this is the most difficult step, and if you find yourself straying from your calendar, take a moment to re-align yourself and course correct.
