"My days FLY by and suddenly the week is over like it never started."
As a follow up to my last article, I’m wondering how fast a person can go in their business and in their daily activities. Since implementing some of the suggestions in the “Four-Hour-Workweek” book, I find that I’m working far more efficiently, effectively and intensely. My days FLY by and suddenly the week is over like it never started. What strikes me is the intensity of my work now because I’m focused on getting it done faster.
Focus creates intensity, like sunlight through a magnifying glass creating heat, I’m moving through my workload faster. So now how fast can I go? Pretty fast, actually. Out of sheer necessity to be effective and efficient I’m:
a) Letting (rather insisting) other people do the work I used to do
b) Talking more and writing less (leading vs. doing)
c) Not sacrificing good enough for the sake of perfection
I’m thinking that as I continue to do more in this manner that I will continue to improve even further. My phone calls are becoming shorter and more productive. My emails are briefer and less often. My meetings are "to the point" and driven. And while this change is all about my personal actions and habits, the results are that my entire company is becoming more effective too. So the true answer to how fast can I go is only limited by how fast my team will go in following my example.
