Hello Phenoms. Here's another short episode of the Phenomenal Future Podcast.
TL;DR - Spend seven days writing down everything you do. It's a scary exercise, but worth it. Your productivity will skyrocket and go through the roof.
Excuses are a dime a dozen:
I can't invest because I don't have enough time to keep up.
I can't start a podcast because I have a full time job.
I can't make videos because I'm not pretty enough or I'm not handsome enough.
I can't start my dream business because I don't have enough money.
Hogwash! These are just stories. They are only fact if you believe them.
I challenge you to write down, in a journal or notebook, where you spend your time over the next week.
Be rigorous.
If it's 5 minutes scanning news headlines, write it down.
Don't wait to write down later. You'll forget. You'll lie to yourself.
Don't judge yourself during the exercise.
Keep track of your sleep as well.
At the end of the week, add up occurences of each action and see where your time went.
If you don't see at least 5 hours of wasted time, congratulations. For the rest of us (me included), there lies the opportunity to massively increase your productivity.
