Time or Money?

Given the choice of infinite time or infinite money what would you choose?

 

I'd choose time because with time you have the opportunity to make more money but more money will not buy you more time.

Would you choose time? If you say yes, then why do you waste so much time? We do not, unfortunately have unlimited time, not in a day, not in a lifetime. We have to make the most of our time.

That means the following:

Prioritize

Make time for what's important - family, friends, time for self, etc.

In Business, spend time on the tasks that make you money. Don't sit around at your desk all day. Get out there, prospect, network, preview homes, whatever but get out there! Every wasted minute is a minute you could have spent doing something productive or sharing it with someone or something you love.

Think about that. We all waste time. But we can change our bad habit of wasting time.

Right now, do something you've been putting off & the next time you catch yourself 'wasting time' picture yourself earning a big paycheck or spending time doing something you love with someone you love or alone....whatever. Eventually less & less time will be wasted & you'll be living a more productive, fulfilling life.

A couple of REALTORS worst time-eaters: Sellers that don't need to sell & buyers who don't need to buy. Think about it. We work hard & only get paid when we sell a property. We cannot afford to spend time unwisely - it doesn't make financial sense.

Now this is a great post.  I deal with borrowers who don't NEED to refinance all of the time.  It's frustrating when you spend 2-3 hours of research to quote them terms and they say, "Oh!  I was just checking the market!"

ARRRRGGGGHHH!

Exactly. Well, if I could buy this house for 50% of its value I'd buy it. Or if I could sell 10% higher than market value I'd sell....ARGHHHH again! Thanks for the comment Brian!
