Tips From 10X on Time Management<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The focus of so many seminars and self-help articles on time management undermines 10X thinking<\/a>. People think in terms of having a shortage of time and needing to achieve balance by giving up things they want. Instead, focus on maximizing your time<\/a> by devoting it to 10X-level goals and action<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Balance Versus Abundance<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

When people think about improving time management, their goal is usually balance. However, it\u2019s either\/or thinking that limits your success\u2014for instance, you might think you can\u2019t have a successful career and be a good husband or father at the same time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But you can<\/em> have success in every area\u2014career, family, health, hobbies, and psychological well-being\u2014simultaneously. Rather than asking how you can improve time management and balance, you should be asking how you can have everything you want in abundance<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When you achieve 10X success<\/a>, you have what you want at such levels that you aren\u2019t at risk of losing it. If you\u2019re unhappy or worried about any area of life, your problem isn\u2019t balance, it\u2019s lack of success. Remember, success is your duty<\/a>: Stop thinking about trade-offs and start thinking in terms of having everything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maximize Your Time<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Most people who worry about time management don\u2019t know how much time they have available, or what\u2019s most important for them to do in that time\u2014which means they can\u2019t manage it. However, instead of managing your time<\/a>, you should focus on maximizing it. You\u2019ll always have a shortage or imbalance if you don\u2019t do enough with the time you have.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cardone notes that people who are impressed with what he gets done often ask him whether he ever rests. But the reason he accomplishes so much isn\u2019t that he forgoes rest\u2014it\u2019s that he knows how much time he has and what his priorities are, and he assumes responsibility for pursuing his goals with maximum effort in that time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
