@miltonbooks 15 Secrets Successful People Know About Time Management

In Their Own Words…


I'll just say that actually being disciplined about adopting these habits is, in my experience, a huge
differentiator of successful people...If I was building a character in a business video game and I had ten
character points to distribute, I'd put three of them into intelligence and seven of them into self-
discipline.
Andrew Mason is the co-founder of Detour and co-founder and former CEO of Groupon.
When you wake up and subconsciously start the countdown—1440, 1439,
1438—adopting the habits of highly successful people becomes very easy.

CHAPTER #2
The Power of Proper Priorities
How would you like to be totally clear on your “one thing”?
Whose Dreams Are You Chasing Anyway?
If you aren’t busy working on your own goals, you’ll be working to achieve
somebody else’s goals.
What’s Your One Thing?
In the hilarious 1991 movie City Slickers, the old cowboy Curly (played by Jack
Palance) gives a secret to Mitch (played by Billy Crystal). Holding up his index
finger, Curly explains that you need to figure out your one thing and stick to it.
But the “one thing” concept goes back a lot further than a Billy Crystal
comedy. Consider this advice from the ages: •
“To do two things at once is to
do neither.” –Publilius Syrus •
“If you chase two rabbits, you will catch
neither one.” –Russian proverb •
“Things which matter most must never be
at the mercy of things which matter least.” –Goethe •
“It is those who
concentrate on but one thing at a time who advance in this world.” –Og Mandino

“Drive for the one thing on which you have decided.” –General George
Patton •
“Efficiency is doing the thing right. Effectiveness is doing the right
thing.” –Peter Drucker •
“Success demands singleness of purpose.” –Vince
Lombardi
Identify Your Most Important Task (MIT)
Therese Macan, a professor at the University of Missouri-St. Louis, conducted
groundbreaking research into time management, productivity, and stress,
discovering that the two most important keys are priorities and mechanics (i.e.,
the mechanics of implementing time management techniques and tactics).
Put simply, the most important things are to know what to focus on and how
you are going to get it done. I call this always knowing your most important
task, or MIT.


Research Says…
In addition to increased productivity, having a daily MIT correlates to higher levels of happiness and
energy.
(Source: The Kruse Group, 2015)
Entire books have been written on goal setting, and I may write one myself
someday, but it all comes down to understanding what is most important to you
and what activity right now will provide the greatest leverage to getting there.
