โŒ›Thereโ€™s a huge difference between spending time and investing it. The word โ€œspendingโ€ means that youโ€™re using something up or exhausting it. When you spend time, youโ€™re not really looking to get anything back. When you invest in something you expand resources, but you do so with an expectation of getting a good return on your investment (ROI). Investing your time means that you engage in activities that must bring you meaningful rewards.

โŒ›โ€œInvestingโ€ and โ€œROIโ€ youโ€™ve probably heard about only when it comes to money. However, you should start thinking of these terms when it comes to your time, as well.

So, how can you start making better time investments? The first step is to set goals. Until you know what you want and what is most important to you, you wonโ€™t be able to decide what the best investment of your time is.

โŒ›The second step is to make a conscious decision on how youโ€™re going to use your time. When it comes to your time you usually spend it without giving much thought as to what type of returnโ€”if anyโ€”youโ€™re going to get back from your "expenditure".

Ask yourselves:

Is this activity a good investment of my time? Does it further one of my life goals?

Am I investing time in my health?

Am I investing time in creating a better financial future for myself?

Is this the best investment of my time at the moment?

How can I begin to invest my time more wisely?

Lovely friends, remember:

โŒ›When you spend your time, itโ€™s gone - each second that goes by, never comes back... But when you invest your time WISELY, you get a positive return, a circ*mstance to further your goals, dreams and aspirations.
