Which means I only have one option – to watch my time very closely and cut out the hours minutes that aren’t helping me:

  1. Develop my business.
  2. Grow closer to God, my wife, and family.

Rescue Time LogoThe best and easiest way I know how to track my time is to use Rescue Time. I used it from December through March, but uninstalled it because I wasn’t quite ready for it. The data was interesting to look at, but I wasn’t using it to take actionable steps. However, this morning I installed it with the purpose that:

  1. It will be a source of accountability to me.
  2. I can visually see (and graphically – they have some cool charts) where I’m spending my time.
  3. I can evaluate and realize just how much time I am spending on activities that aren’t part of my business strategy and goals.
