\"Being<\/a>\u00a0What are the two things we can never seem to have enough of?<\/p>\n

Time and Money<\/p>\n

But the Truth is there are plenty of both the problem is we don\u2019t know how to manage it properly.<\/p>\n

Did you know that 80% of the tasks you do on a day to day basis (and this might vary depending on the person) are meaningless tasks that you could do without?<\/p>\n

We have been taught to think that a job (for example) is supposed to take from 9 to 5 every day, but some days you\u2019re playing solitaire on the computer or passed out on your desk from boredom. And in Empower a lot of people hate Blogging because they say it takes them to much time.<\/p>\n

But then you look at them write a Blog post and they are writing and chatting on facebook at the same time, they check twitter every 5 minutes, they finish writing and then spend an hour trying to get a picture centered.<\/p>\n

\"Being<\/a>\u00a0You know I use to do that and it took me forever to finish writing a Blog post but I did it every day regardless, it took a lot out of me and I spent a lot of time on it, but one day I made a little experiment if you will.<\/p>\n

I closed the 20 some web pages I had going on my browser and I just focused on writing and nothing else. You know what happened?<\/p>\n

I finnished in 10 minutes and then I found myself with nothing to do so I went out to see a movie, and that had never happened before, you see I always thought that I needed to be busy in order to be successful, I thought I needed to do everything myself and the truth is I don\u2019t, now I just focusing on writing a Blog post a day, and let someone else email my list, market and speak to customers and prospects.<\/p>\n

And since then I have made more money here than I ever did. Learn to focus on what is really important and leave the unimportant to someone else or eliminate it. For instance, how many times do you check your email every day? or your Facebook?<\/p>\n

Do it once or twice a day, you get the same results in much much less time.<\/p>\n

In order to be a successful entrepreneur you need to be creative, use your head in order to come up with ways of having both the time and the money.<\/p>\n
