Chris Hutchins and guest Dan Martell discuss how to buy back time & lead a more fulfilling life.
Key Takeaways:
It’s not just about being super productive; it’s about understanding what is important to you and allocating your time accordingly.
Your calendar tells a story of what’s important to you. If you show me your calendar, I will tell you what is important to you.
Lack of clarity is a common reason for procrastination.
Change your language from “I don’t have time for” to “I choose not to make time for” to hold yourself accountable and address any time mismanagement
People can choose to live a rich life by changing their mindset from “I have to” to “I get to”.
When people say they can’t afford something, they should ask themselves how they can become more valuable instead of just accepting that they cannot afford it
Understanding what your time is worth is crucial in deciding when to outsource. Dan’s equation for determining the value of your hour is simple – divide your annual salary by 2,000
Make conscious decisions about what activities are worth. For example, choose between going to Costco or going to the gym
Outsourcing tasks frees up mental bandwidth and decision-making power for more important things.
