Time Management - 2011 Archive

Time management is a critical aspect to all business owners and leaders.  It is the one resource you can't make more of and the one you need to protect the most.  One of our favorite quotes is Michael Gerber's quote which is "Time is another word for Life".   Owning a business is meant to add value to your life, which includes freeing up your time.  Below are a collection of articles on time management from our weekly Business Owner Insights.

Real Time

We are born.  We die.  In between is Time.  And even though Time is what it is, we try to get our arms around it by measuring it…in seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, years.  But more importantly, we get to decide how to use it…every single one of us.  The Time that has gone by we will never see again (at least not in this lifetime).  We don’t know how much Time we have left.  We can no longer choose how to use the Time of yesterday…we already did that.  We don’t know if we’ll have a choice about the Time of tomorrow…hopefully each of us will.

The only Time we really know we have and can choose to use in a way that brings us joy and satisfaction is the Time happening NOW.  As a matter of fact, when you really think about it, the only Time that really matters is Real Time—the Time happening NOW.
