    "Achieving Balance" Audiobook Chapter 6: Business Time Management

    "Achieving Balance" Audiobook Chapter 6: Business Time Management

    Most business owners are working in their most productive and satisfying activities called the Sweet Spot for only 25% of the working day. 
    But why?
    It's because most business owners don't have a Time Management System that enables them to work in their Sweet Spot 80-90% of the time!
    They know tips and tricks but they don't have a system that is repeatable and automatic.
    This is why they struggle to achieve their business AND personal goals. Each day they do something different depending on where they get their productivity advice and they spend more time doing less.
    Having an actual time management system that is based in doing repeatable activities that keep them working in their Sweet Spot is the key. This chapter shows you how to do just that.

    Myth Two: Productivity Is The Magic Pill

    Myth Two: Productivity Is The Magic Pill

    Myth 2: Productivity is not the magic pill!
    We all need to be productive but not without the boundaries that will keep us balanced. 
    After learning about time management and productivity from the likes of Michael Gerber, David Allen, Dave Crenshaw, Bryan Tracy, and Tim Ferris I noticed a major pitfall. There is a tendency for business owners to reinvest the time saved from being more productive back into their businesses instead of their personal goals.
    This produces more "Productive Workaholics" than you can imagine and with the pull for business time having boundaries is the solution.
