The Time Thieves


wealthymattersYou have 24 hours in every day, seven days a week for a total of 168 hours to accomplish what needs to be done in your life. And every day, eleven time thieves gang up on you and work to take some of that precious time away from productive use. Let me introduce you to this inconsiderate troupe.

 

  1. Poor Planning. People don’t plan to fail but a lot of people fail to plan. Without a plan of action set up before your day begins you are likely to get caught up in “stuff,” responding to the loudest voice that gets your time and attention. Will you have been productive for the day? Sure, but not as productive as you might have been.

 

  1. Crisis Management. When a deadline sneaks up on you it robs you of all choice and you are controlled by the clock. Crisis management, for the most part, is poor time management because you’re rushed and stressed, letting things slip through the cracks and often having to go back and redo what was not done well in the first place.

Readers Please Be Aware


wealthymattersThis is a post I feel compelled to do after an unfortunate incident yesterday night.I thought I’d sing like the blackbird and make my boundaries clear.Link

First off,wealth building is a primary motive for me.Link

Secondly I believe that want and poverty, like suffering are optional and totally unnecessary.I think Dhirubhai had it right when he said:“If you’re born poor its not your fault but if you die poor its your fault”.Think!our mental abilities ,which we are born with, are not as far apart as our wealth positions.Also some of the world’s wealthiest people are self made.

Thirdly I believe that people can learn to be wealthy.Link

I blog to maintain a personal record of stuff I find useful in wealth building.Its also my attempt to leave a record for my family,long after I am gone in much the same way as I find the old business papers of my ancestors illuminating.I choose to make the blog public as I’d love for others to benefit from my efforts in any way possible.I believe that wealth is not a zero-sum game.Wealthy people,simply by being,help increase the wealth of people round them.
