Controlling your time


Click the image above to get published in record time!

“Success means controlling your own time. If you can gain control over 60% of the time in your life, you are really successful.” –Rod Steiger

I came across this quotation recently and was impressed with it. When I began to work for myself, I felt I had some measure of control over my time, but I ended up working way more than I did when I was working for a paycheck. The work was rewarding, of course, and I didn't resent anyone for making me do things I didn't want to do. The harder I worked, the more I made and the more proud I was of the quality of my work.

But there was a downside: I was working a lot. If I wasn't working, I felt as if I could/should be working.

That was until I began to take advantage of the automation the Web can provide. I began to work more efficiently and less and made the same amount (or more) money most months.

If you want to get control of your time/life, consider coming to the next Web Whisperers Boot Camp in Santa Fe (WW3), February 16-20, 2008.

Other outsourcing/virtual assistant services

I just read an article in the print magazine Fast Company (February 2008) about how Pfizer used outsourcing to shave costs and increase productivity. They farmed out things like PowerPoint slide program creation and research. This freed up their skilled staff for more essential and profitable activities.

Here are two resources. Why should the big companies have all the fun?
