Time Leverage in Life

Today I want to talk about time leverage in life, because the more successful you get the more leverage you need in order to do the things you want.

What do I mean by Time Leverage?

Doing things in the most efficient way possible, getting more from doing less. Whether that is making more money by using less because your doing it smarter, or by using your time to the maximum using the least amount of effort.

So I joined Empower Network a week ago, and all I did for 6 days was stay in my room absorbing everything I could get my hands on, and then using this information to do positive activities to propel my business forward.

So after 6 days I was starting to feel 2 things

1. I need to go and see some actual real life people because I have been in solitude
2. My whole thought process was around Empower Network and I needed to get out my head and have some fun

So a crazy thing happened on the 7th day that I wasn’t expecting, because I had planned to continue working away and trying to build the foundations of my success in online marketing. As this was a new field for me I had a lot of catching up to do, so doing 12 hour plus days to get up to speed was not an issue, it is what I needed to do.

So on the Sunday I get a call from a buddy of mine saying we are over by you lets chill for a bit. He arrived and he bought a long another buddy of mine.

We had a chat and then while we was in the garden one of them suggested playing bowls, which is chucking some balls at a tiny ball and whoever gets closest gets the points.

I had seen old people play this down the park and YAWN is all I could think of. But I played anyway, and actually had a ton of fun. The reason being we played at the top of the garden where the path was wobbly because its an old cottage kind of path, so it meant that the skill factor was dramatically reduced and the luck factor went way up, so it was more fun as the playing field was leveled with my friend who has played it for years.

So after this we went and called for another friend of mine and had a good chat, bought he along for the fun. Then on the way to the park we called for another friend, who came along for the fun.

While we was at the park one of my friends calls me, and low and behold he is walking right next to the park, so I said come down and have some fun.

When he arrives he was with another friend of mine, who just happened to be walking out the park when he was coming in. So they both came down to hang out.

So this meant without planning and without chasing a single one of them, I had 6 good friends all in one place at the same time.

So there you have it, I have started getting time leverage in life with my friends. The best thing is everyone benefits more when excellent individuals come together and form a group. It means I can spend less time with each of them but still give the same quality and value, and have even more fun.

So how are you getting time leverage in life?
