Time is a finite resource. We know there are 24 hours in a day, 365 days in a year (not including leap year), and so on. We can't make an extra day out of nowhere. This means, instead of hoping for more time to do something, you need to focus on what you're currently doing with your time. I know many people, including myself, who work extra on the side.
I have a full-time job, but I also blog, run a business . and so forth. It's not because I know the secret to finding more time. It's because I know the secret to harnessing the time I do have and making the most of it. If you want to start earning more money, then take a good look at what you're currently doing with your time.
Do you spend most of it at a job?
Watch TV?
Hang out at the local bar?
Where does your time go? This is the first step into understanding what you're actually doing. For myself, I used to spend a good amount of time in front of the TV. If I wasn't watching TV, I was playing video games. It consumed a lot of my time. It was a mindless activity that did nothing to advance my agenda of earning more.
Once I canceled cable . my extra income earning potential increased greatly. I now have more time to think about ways to earn more, use the time to make more, and enjoy the money I make. Just by removing cable from my life, I wasn't tied to the TV. While I still do have TV through some services, I don't focus on it. I don't come home and turn on the TV and sit down to watch. My priority has shifted from a mindless activity to an income-producing one.
