Why I Do It? Podcast

Hiring People Is Not An Expenditure, It Is An Investment


Listen Later

Today, John Paul asks the question ‘how much money would you give to spend more time with your family? Join John Paul in this new episode of Why I Do It as he discusses why managing your time well and hiring people to take care of the non-income-generating tasks is important when aiming to maintain a healthy work-life balance.

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Nobody ever says they wish they had less time to spend with their loved ones. You will never hear anybody say that they have far too much time on their hands to complete their tasks, grow their business and achieve their goals.
  • In business, time is unbelievably precious. You do not want to be wasting your time on anything. Everything needs to be done promptly and you need to schedule your time, every day to make sure you make the most of it.
  • You need to think about what tasks you want to do during your working day. You may need to hire somebody to complete your admin tasks for you. Some people look at this as an unnecessary cost, but this will free up so much of your time to do income-generating tasks.
  • How much would you give to spend more time with your family? How much would you invest in your business to allow you to do more income-generating tasks? Don’t look at hiring people as an expenditure, think of it as an investment and think of how much you will gain by doing so.
