mortgage papers 300 The Law of Forced Efficiency in ActionThe law of forced efficiency says: “There is never enough time to do everything, but there is always enough time to do the most important thing.”

The fact is that the average person today is working at 110-130 percent of capacity. And the jobs and responsibilities just keep piling up. One recent study concluded that the average executive has a backlog of 300-400 hours of reading and projects at home and at the office.

What this means is that you will never be caught up. Get that out of your mind. All you can hope for is to keep on top of your most important responsibilities. The others will just have to wait.

The key question you can ask is: “What is the most valuable use of my time, right now?” Your job is to ask yourself that question, and to make sure you’re always spending your time working on whatever is most important at that particular moment.

The more accurate your answers to this question, the easier it will be for you to set clear priorities and overcome procrastination.

The trap for us all, as human beings just trying to “get on” in life, is that we are prone to focussing on the day-to-day stuff that pays the wages and we neglect to make time for more important long-term planning. This can mean that opportunity just passes by.

I recently spent an hour with a long time acquaintance, who has looked at a number of exceptional property deals we put together with his particular circumstances in mind. These were not small deals – the chance to take ownership of £500,000 of new build apartments and houses, each with built in equity and positive cash flow.

Unfortunately these kinds of deal move quickly and, one unit after another, the package fell apart as my friend was unable to make a couple of spare hours to fully appreciate the opportunity under his nose. Long-term financial security for himself and his young family was pushed onto the back burner for another day!

Building serious wealth takes planning and at least some dedicated time (I’d like to think that we can offer some useful shortcuts though!!). We consistently aim to make a huge impact, and add massive value from day one of a new relationship with our clients – helping them to come up with a property investment plan that is exclusively designed to cater for their individual needs in the medium to long term.

The law of forced efficiency says: “There is never enough time to do everything, but there is always enough time to do the most important thing.”

 Surely the most important thing is to make some quality time to create some serious wealth for the future!
