We all have the same amount of time; 24/7/365. Here’s a newsflash – Elon Musk, Richard Branson and Jeff Bezos all have the same number of hours as you do and they get their shit done! It actually should be called Time NO management as you actually can’t physically manage it It ticks and disappears … Read moreTime NO management
We all have weaknesses. Not only is it hard to admit this – it’s even harder to work on them. It is far easier to just accept that you have a weakness and focus on your strengths.
