In 1991 I read Jeffrey Mayer’s book, “If You Haven’t Got the Time to Do It Right, When Will You Find the Time to Do It Over?” It was likely one of hundreds of books I’d read about time management. Since then, I’ve probably read 100 more. You’d think I’d be a time management expert by now, huh?
Time management tools and techniques are a bit like the best camera. “The best camera is the one you have with you.” The best time management techniques are the ones you’ll actually use.
GTD – Getting Things Done – by Robert Allen is clearly the market leader in time management. If not the market leader, it’s got to be the best known brand in the space.
I’m not a time management expert, but I do know how to get things done. I do what works for me. You likely do things differently than me. That’s fine.
But…
Sometimes I don’t do what I know I should. Sometimes I mess up. And I have to go back and do something again because I failed to take the time to do it right the first time ’round.
I’d like to hear what works for you, or what resources you’ve found valuable.
Thanks for listening,

“It’s all about building relationships,” says the expert. “Businesses must build community.”
People flock to this trough like hungry swine, devouring every word as though their business lives depended on it. Obviously many business owners believe it.
It sounds reasonable. Right, even.
Besides, we all want to be liked, loved and in good relationships.
And who doesn’t want to be part of a community? Better yet, who doesn’t want to be the Pied Piper?
Build your own tribe. Lead that tribe. How cool is that – to be the Chief of your own tribe leading the rest of us around like simps unable to decide for ourselves?
In a world where everybody is an expert about something (some among us are expert at everything), it’s about building relationships.
No, it’s not.
It’s about sitting in my car recording today’s episode before my second workout of the day. Today’s episode was recorded late yesterday outside The Yellow Studio. That’s why today’s show is another special episode. You might think it’s special in other ways after you give it a listen.
