The Time I Went on the U-I Talk Show | Dan Lok

0:00Now I don't even know why but every time we film one of these what's happening on planet Dan video I'm always fucking driving I guess it's only when I'm driving then we have the time to actually kind of have a conversation with you and whenever you know where I'm going kind of share with you a little bit of what's happening in my life. In the last couple weeks you know there's a lot of videos just because I've been just so fucking busy it's this crazy after I speak of social light I just have so many people contact me, I think this is deals, things of help, entrepreneurs, so for sure it's been very very busy and then next week then I'm traveling to Texas or killing a five day workshop, higher workshop or kind of buying self-business. So with Jack Robbins, Cody Robbins, I'm so afraid to recognize him and he can go so it would be quite interesting.

1:02Anyway today that today we just I'm just going to go grab some lunch after that then I'm going to show tower, I'm going to be interviewer beyond UNI top show with Louise probably once I get the video I'll upload to you all chill with you guys as well, we're done, we're done, and then afterwards got couple meetings after Mrs. People, after that then tonight I'm having a dinner with my couple of my young mentees and get together. I think we're having I think we're having Corian today, I think so, but you know what that time of I'm going to go leave the video and we'll see what are we doing because I have them. Anyway I want to give you a tip, we have a lot of tasks, a lot of responsibility, you know people ask me the question, well then how do you manage your time? First of all I never believe in time management, time management doesn't exist, you cannot manage time,

2:06we all have only 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year, you cannot manage time, and see the second that you watch this video, that second is gone, so we cannot manage time, what we couldn't manage is priority, what do you focus on, what do you put your energy towards, so one of the things that I've done over the years, it's a very simple technique but it has made me way more effective as a entrepreneur, and that is time blocking. Now what is time blocking? Time blocking is nothing more than basically making an appointment with yourself, meaning you're going to block all your time and say so let's say you have appointment, in this case I'm an appointment, I'm going to launch, I'm blocking all that time for an hour, then I block an hour, third minute driving time, they go into the interview, the talk show, which is about I think an hour and a half, I'm going to do some makeup on and stuff like that, and then afterwards again 60 minutes for first meeting, afterwards and now 60 is 60

3:07minute for the second meeting, so with all these different different appointments, so if we don't set appointments with ourselves, sometimes the important tasks don't get done, sometimes you know you open up an email and I've said it many times, email box is nothing more than other people's agenda, so you don't want people to dictate your schedule, so you want to block out a time in advance, I'm very clear, pretty much my schedule, it's pre-schedule weeks in advance, at least two to three months in advance, sometimes months in advance, I know exactly what needs to be done, what am I doing during those time, I almost never take an income, an schedule income and calls, almost 99% of my appointments are pre-scheduled, I want to work in an environment where there's no distraction, so you know my home office, my office, I'm not a, you know, 90% of the time, I just don't take calls, because when I'm working I'm focused and this is what

4:08is important, so time block, making appointments yourself, focus on important stuff, stuff that produces revenue, what are called income-producing activities, focus on important tasks, sometimes those tasks are what you try to avoid, sometimes for weeks or months, but do those difficult things, the important task first, then you know that's going to make a bigger difference in your life, in your business and do that, and then you find yourself more productive, and it builds momentum, it builds confidence, as you do more, and you feel so good, and say, you know what, I got that done, I still have quite a bit of time left for the day, that's that's packed on the next one, that's packed on the next one, if you do that on a consistent basis, just daily, day in and day out, I think you get pretty incredible results, so I'm going to go get lunch, and then afterwards, maybe tonight I'll turn on the camera and film some more videos, and then talk to you. You don't get enough time to say anything, you don't have to know that, it builds this income, you don't know this one time, but you want it up, and I'm always

5:11talking to you more, and then you don't know the best, so you want to achieve new inspiration, because I've got this one before the month, that nowadays I can film this as a deal, or in a deal, I can film a much better way to add to it, protection, all this I need to say, that you discuss this year.
