Insights from Chapter 1

#1

The author was the founder and president of a digital learning company that quickly took off. Revenue doubling every year and all the related challenges: new hires, sales, product launches, fundraising, and on and on. The author finally printed a big 1440 on a piece of paper and taped it to the outside of his office door.

#2

The author implemented a 1440 sign in his office to remind him to never waste a single minute of his time. Soon, other employees in the office were discussing how little time they actually had to do their work.

#3

Successful people have a similar list of the most important things in life: family, friends, health, money, and time. But time is the one thing you can never get back.

#4

Time is the one true equalizer. Some are born rich, others poor. Some have Ivy League degrees, others high school dropouts. All have the same minutes in a day.

#5

Successful people are aware of the passage of time. They know the potential that every minute holds.

Insights from Chapter 2

#1

There is a concept in the book called the one thing that is extremely valuable. It means focusing your efforts and time on one thing and not diversifying your efforts across several things. It is a great way to save time and get more done by doing one thing well.

#2

Identify your most important goal, and the activity that will lead to its achievement. Don’t get sidetracked by the goal setting if you don’t already have identified goals.

#3

Identifying the one thing that would make the biggest difference to your results is a great way to break down the process of achieving your goals into smaller chunks.
