Time Management

I think this issue is hard for anyone to ever truly understand and master. It's hard for people to realize just how important each moment is and to truly act as we should always. The key is to challenge yourself daily and to always feel like you accomplished each days goals that you set for yourself. Sometimes it's just about baby steps of improvement. Thanks for the post Todd.

My BIC gave me a good tip that I haven't actually used but does sound good in theory.  I can imagine being retired military you are used to getting up early (my Dad still can't sleep in past 6:30 am on ANY day and he has been retired for many years lol)  As soon as you get and are eating breakfast or drinking your coffee, get a large notecard.  Be sure it is a notecard, paper is too flimsy for this.  Draw two vertical lines creating three columns.  One is Sellers, one is buyer, one is prospecting.  In your Sellers column write down what needs to be done for your sellers, buyer column write down things that are to be done for buyers that day and on your prospecting column write down at least ONE thing that you can do that day for prospecting.  It can be very simple.  Leaving business cards on the cars next to in parking lots, making up a flyer, talking to newspapers or magazines about placing in ads.  Once you have it on your daily to do list you feel obligated to complete it.  One simple thing a day can get lots done for you.  My BIC has been in Real Estate for many years and she continues to be very successful.  I hope that helps!
