WHY DO WE STILL SAY “TIME IS MONEY” WHEN TIME IS SO MUCH MORE?
Kris Krohn started questioning the way we view time and how to use it, which led him to finding a better way to decide what gets a portion of his time. In this book, Kris shares his formula for answering YES or NO to life’s commitments in a way that accelerates your success timeline and allows you to fit more life into the one you’re already living.
Kris Krohn plans to live a thousand lives within the one he has, and he wants to help others do the same.
That’s why he’s on a mission to inspire people to live a life without regret. And the system he presents in Time Machine will enable people to see the best choice BEFORE they make it by looking at each yes or no question through five logic, money, joy, energy, and intuition.
Like the phoropter optometrists use to help patients achieve 20/20 vision, when you adjust all five lenses correctly, you achieve 20/20 Hindsight Vision before committing your time!
The end result? In the same way that you can arbitrage money in investing, Kris has discovered a way to ARBITRAGE TIME and do more with the same bucket of minutes we all have.
In Time Machine, Kris Krohn has written a new book about managing our time and learning to get our focus back on what matters. He begins the book by explaining time is not money. A lot of us believe that time is valuable. We all have the same amount of time in a day, 1440 minutes. He revealed how we need to know when to say yes to things and when to say no thanks and move on. He looked at how we can accumulate money and we can do this by saving, investing, and spending. He explained how only 16% of Americans have $200,000 in retirement and this can lead to a problem of having very little to live off of. In the book, he shared that his company grew by 200% while he was writing this book. He chooses to work Mondays, Tuesday, and Thursday. Wednesday is bliss day, Friday kid day, Saturday his day, and Sunday Lord’s Day. He feels that making more money shouldn’t require us from having to spend more of our time. He opened up about his different jobs and buying real estate. He explored the lens system and came up with two new standards: delegation and yes. He walks readers through how to discovered how to use their time more wisely.
I would recommend this eye-opening book about time and figuring how what matters. I honestly don’t see how he is able to personally work only three days a week and gets to spend that much time with his family compared to others who work way over that many hours. Maybe this is a struggle for me. I thought this part was kind of crazy. I appreciated how he revealed how we need to only say yes to the activities that will benefit us that is twice as much as our highest hourly rate. He enclosed some examples to show the lessons in action.
