Time is one of our most precious assets. It’s a limited resource that no matter what we do, you can never get lost time back. Once a minute has passed, it’s gone forever. Time is what can determine your success or failure. Just about everyone I know claims they don’t have enough time in the day. Yet how is it that high achievers with ten thousand times more stress and responsibilities are able to get more accomplished in a single hour with the same amount of time as a homeless person with no responsibility? We all have the same amount of time. We each get 24 hours in a day. No more. No less. Your results in life are dependent on what you do with your time. Do you spend your time watching countless hours of television? Or do you read a book that can better yourself? Do you spend all of your time going out on the town and being hungover the next day, or do you put in the time to accomplish a step towards your dreams? One of my mentors, Dan Kennedy has a great quote:
The degree to which you achieve peak productivity – will determine your success.
You can never buy more time. Time is a priceless commodity. You only get 24 hours in a day, but you can reallocate your time. You can change your habits to gain more time for what you need to accomplish. The other day I was talking with a man that claimed he had no time to do anything different. I asked him to walk me through his day. He got up at 5 and watched the news, drank coffee, read the newspaper then went to work until 5ish, then had to eat supper. By then, he was so tired from work from earlier he had to rest a bit and usually watched the news again. Then he would visit with the family, work a little on projects, watch TV and take care of what the kids had going on like sports and homework. By that time the day was gone. He had no free time he claimed. I noticed two problems with his theory. His watching the news and television was sabotaging his results. 3 plus hours a day to be exact. Better yet, he watched the same news broadcast twice in one day! If he only paid attention to the news once a day for no more than one hour, he would free up 2 hours a day. That adds up to 730 hours a year equally a total of 30 full days. A whole month over the course of a year was spent watching the news that he had already seen earlier that morning. Wow. A full month he was missing out on by simply watching less news and reallocating that time towards his goals. If you want to get where you want to go, you have to audit your time. Make a list each day and write down exactly what you did. I’m sure you can find things to cut out or make more productive. If you audit your time and become more productive, you have a much higher chance of success.
It cracks me up when I hear people say they are “too busy” to do something different to achieve their path to success. Are you really too busy to change your future? To completely change your life around? 
It’s time to give yourself a time audit from social media.
