299: 5 Wastes of Time and How to Make Them Productive

" Short as life is, we make it still shorter by the careless waste of time."

- Victor Hugo

I have talked about how each of us has the exact some number of hours in the day and the people that don't seem to have enough may be wasting time in ways they didn't realize add up. You have plenty of time to become better, to grow. All you you need to do is stop pi**ing away your days on useless actions.

Every action we make is either positive or negative; it either moves us forward in our lives to accomplishing our goals or pushes us further back, stagnating.

Today I want to talk about the 5 top time wasters and what you can do to make them productive. I am going to talk about the best thing you can do in those times you are wasting moments with each action and what the second best plan of attack is.
