More Free Time! - How to Manage Your Work and Prioritize Tasks

in timemanagement •  7 years ago 

"I don't have time for that." - Have you ever heard this sentence?

Well, I hear it daily. The funny thing is that we all have the same amount of time, 24 hours every day. The question is how do we use it.

The simple trick is called "leveraging time" or how I like to call it "buy back your time." How does that work?

Every day you have a million things to do, a never-ending to-do list and a huge amount of tasks that would help you or your business.

The first thing you need to understand is that those tasks don't have the same value and they don't cost the same amount of time.

Funny enough: Many high-value tasks are not very time consuming, many low-value tasks steal away half of your day.

Cleaning your apartment is a real-life example. It takes hours even though you could hire somebody to do that for you at an affordable price.

In business, it's the same. Let's say you are offering websites. Selling the project on the phone with a 60-minute sales call costs you 1 hour. If you have a closing rate of 25% and you sell for $2000 it takes you 4 hours to make 2k.

Programming and designing the website takes a lot longer, let's say a week. On Upwork you can find freelancers to do the work for $400. That means $400 investment can save you one week of your time.

In today's video, "More Free Time! - How to Manage Your Work and Prioritize Tasks", I am talking about how to buy back your time!
