"Time is more valuable than money. You can get more money, but you can’t get more time."
-Jim Rohn
Investing in time is the most important process in your buildup to a successful life. An Olympic gold medalist does not take 1 month to achieve this feat. It probably took them their entire youth to train for it.
It did not take me one day to achieve what I have today. Instead it took me 1 year to constantly change myself for the better. This transformation will last forever and it is definitely worth to invest in your time to improve yourself now.
Let me give an illustration on how two different persons managed their time but having different results.
Daily routine of a highly successful millionaire
6.30am: Wake up and wash up
6.45am: Meditation
7.00am: Swimming
7.30am: Read newspaper
8.00am: Eat breakfast
8.30am: Leave for work
6.00pm: Return home from work
6.30pm: Eat dinner
7.00pm: Spend time with family
8.00pm: Listen to inspirational audio tapes
9.00pm: Read books on personal development.
11.00pm: Go to bed
Daily routine of an unmotivated professional
7.30am: Wake up and wash up
7.45am: Read newspaper
8.00am: Eat breakfast
8.30am: Leave for work
6.00pm: Return home from work
6.30pm: Eat dinner
7.00pm: Spend time with family
8.00pm: Watch TV, play computer games, surfing internet
11.00pm: Go to bed
Do not be mistaken over my intention here. I am not against any of this lifestyle. I study biographies of some outstanding people and found that most of them carry out most of these routine activities so I did not make it up on the life of the highly successful millionaire. They did not complain about having no time even though they still go to work as most of us did. In fact, all of them are busier than us. As for the unmotivated professional, it is not difficult for me to come out with this routine as I am surrounded by most of these people. In fact, my life used to be like that in the past.
