Friday, always a good day. Closed a few transactions, made some good head way with other deals, and caught up on email, only have 30 to answer tonight.
We also signed up a few new clients on the management side of things.
One thing that I did take away from this week is time management skills. A lot of people talk about this subject, but few practice it well. Sure it is easy to say block time for this task at this time, but life has a way of interrupting. That pesky email pop up, that phone call, or that issue that need immediate addressing.
To be perfectly honest with you, it is all a bunch of bull. You can block off time, and if you are able to completely focus for that time, great, do it. But understand that things will come up and you will have to handle them. Prioritize what is most important, and sometimes that will me breaking the time block. I know it might sound foolish, but it is what must be done. If you are trying to run a business, you must keep things moving forward each day. If you do not, you will fail. Know what tasks need to get done first, then do them. If something more important pops up, you have to put the other task off until the other is complete.
Will this result in the best time management skills, no, but it will result in a growing business and great profit.
As always, happy investing.
