“Fast is the new big. Perfection is the killer to production. Perfection is basically a symptom of procrastination.” ~ Grant Cardone.
We hear it all day long, we even trick ourselves saying it to ourselves all the time... "I don't have time to do it". ⏰
I've ben an Entrepreneur for over 20+ years and learned to make more time than most people, how does one do this if we all have only 24 hours a day?
Check this out, we are all live busy lives, each and every one of us... but why do some people seem to have so much time on their hands and get things done more than most?
The answer is very simply explained by one word. Speed! You kill it with "Quickness"... What is the saying; "Money Loves Speed"! 🏎️💰
"So what the hell does that mean Charles?"
You have to multiply your time and efforts on every task you do in life. For example, people tend to spend hours a day cooking and eating. Why not just knock it out spending 20 minutes a day doing that, you'll save up couple hours a day. 🍲🍔🍓🥝
Another example, people who workout everyday tend to spend over 1-2 hours a day in the gym... why not just go straight ham at the gym for 30-40 minutes and just get it done faster. 🏋🏽♂️
Another Example, people say they are tired and need sleep. No you don't, for over 20 years after grinding as hard as I do... I only sleep 6 hours a day. I trained my mind and body to do that. Well, guess what, that gives me 14 more hours a week than most people who sleep 8 hours a day. Think about that for a bit, I just created a whole day for myself... lets call it SUUNMONDAY! 🤣
You know what? I can write ten's of thousands of examples down... it don't matter, they all have the same unique answer... "Start doing your activities faster". The more you do this, the faster and easier things will get.
It's all about expanding your time, you will learn that you will have more time doing more things everyday because you just "Get It Done" Fast! 💯
I'm currently knocking out two blogs a day, I got faster in writing my thoughts down. When I first started Steemit, I was freaking slow and took hours to write one blog post but after each blog, I got much faster and way better.
Yeah, there is bad Grammer and tons of misspelled words but it don't matter, at least I got it done and the message I write is received to the masses. 😎
Now by doing these blogs faster, I have more time to comment and curate, but by then... I'm already doing some "Swing trading" with tons of cryptos.
I got 10X more things done than the average person who would spend hours on one blog trying to make it perfect, but im already on my next 3-4 blogs. 📝
Hope you guys understand what I'm writing about, its not about having time... it's all about making time and the best way to do it is start getting shit done faster everyday.
A week for me is like 14 days because I already know I don't waste my time and get things done twice as fast than normal people.
Most people will start saying this, "I'm not fast, I cant do it". That is just an excuse, it's a skill create by choice. Tomorrow morning try this out, take your showers faster, brush your teeth faster, put your cloths on faster etc... etc.. you will realize something, you probably created 30 minutes of extra time. If you put this type of "action" in your life with all your activities, you will create so much time, it's not even funny.
Just try it out, you will see what I mean. 😆
So i hope this helps many of you guys out in a way thats so different and has that "out of the box thinking" but it does work.
Until Next Time, Keep On STACKIN! 💞
P.S. For those who are interested in following my "Daily Activities" that I do in very "short form". Follow me here: @charles-fuchs.
Charles I have to say great post, there is a lot to unpack there. For starters, I could resonate with the 2-hour gym sessions and can I go harder and hammer those weights? Hell yeah! I will be trying that tomorrow! Also, I love the Grant Cardone Quote you started with, I remember Grant talking about how his first book had a ton of miss spelling and grammar issues and when people point that at to him, he says "yeah and it still was a best seller!" Why??? Because the message could still be gathered is my presumption.
I myself and a very reluctant writer but I have a lot to say and often just skip blocking because I am a much better orator than writer (#Pause) and I am a comedian so usually only I have to read what I wrote but you made an excellent case for giving to the world!
The other you said that I know I heard before but tonight it truly resonated with me is the fact that I have been using perfection as a means to procrastinate and really there is a wall of fear to knock through because improvement only comes with time, effort, trial, and error.
Thank you for your efforts, you have awakened something in me and for that I am greatful. For I have had my Steemit account for nearly 7 months because of you and this is the first post I have replied to!
Cheers to making 2018 amazing for many others and ourselves!
Warmly,
JaMarr John Johnson
P.S. it took me 16mins to write this minus a few ADHD moments

We are all creating our own realities. Whatever you believe is possible is true for you. All the people who constantly say "I can't" are correct because that is the reality they are creating for themselves. The people who say they will and visualize that whatever they desire is already a done deal are also correct.

Yeah, I've learnt this a few months ago. Speed is really essential to success, because if you don't pick up the pace, you are not gonna do a lot in your day. Speed also motivates me to do even more throughout my day, because it starts feeling like I'm in the zone! 😎

Dude. This post is gold.
Here's another tip for speeding up writing: voice-to-text dictation software. I know first drafts are MUCH faster dictated rather than typed.
I'm going for a personal best of 40 (quality) blog posts from now to the end of the month. My strategy:
1- batch my work. I'm going to see if I can look over my writing ideas list and crank out 10 posts written in one day. Then edit/format/photos etc... In another batch. Then set them to auto post on a schedule and start the next batch.
Resteeming this for sure.

Saving time is key...a lot of people claiming not to have time mostly spend their time doing something irrelevant. It is very wise to create time out of no time. By doing this you discover that what it would take a normal person to achieve, it would take you more than half the time to achieve that same thing if not more...keep stackin

"Perfection is basically a symptom of procrastination."
You know what, you're right. And wrong.
I will completely agree that trying to make everything you do perfect is indeed a waste of time. I know I've spent way more time than was necessary trying to get a story to be close to perfect. But it ended up costing me way more time which I could've used to write more.
That is the point where I think you're wrong.
"Perfection is a process not a goal."
Forgot where I read this quote, but I believe it to be true. Everyone has a different definition of perfect and trying to get it on the first attempt is not happening. But if you spent less time on each attempt and make more attempts, then you can achieve your idea of perfection over time.
But despite my opinions, this is still a great post. And more importantly, it got me thinking. So that earns my vote and resteem.
