More Valuable than Money

People have told me all my life, “Time is money.” But the reality is that TIME is MORE VALUABLE than MONEY. We all get 1440 minutes every day. (Unless you get some more than me.) ?? It hasn’t taken me long to realize that with a wife, six kids, two businesses, and a non-profit organization to direct, I need to be INTENTIONAL in my time management.

I used to hate Mondays simply because PREPARATION meets OPPORTUNITY, and I was not adequately prepared for the opportunities of that critical first day of the business week. My life was chaos?and confusion, and it was so frustrating. Hey, I'm not saying I'm perfect?now by any means, but I can give you some valuable?advice when it comes to INTENTIONAL TIME MANAGEMENT.?

So, a friend taught me a little strategy he used to start his week out right. I immediately began to implement it and discovered it worked well for me. Now, I want to share it with you:?

• On Thursday, I start thinking about Monday.?
• On Friday, I put pen to paper, taking a 30,000-foot view of the next week, and write out my plan.
• On Saturday, I sit down with my wife, and we go line by line, hour by hour, through our plans for the week ahead. We literally discuss and communicate our entire week. (This alone has made a HUGE difference in our life and marriage!)

I hope you find this helpful and agree that TIME IS INDEED MORE VALUABLE THAN MONEY.
