Allows for the ability to spend time automating all that in the future you can reap compounding interest on your time Try first to __eliminate__ the things you need to do. If you do not need to do them at all, why do them? Try then to __automate__ the things you do. If you can set up the task such that it becomes effortless to execute, do so to save yourself time. Try then to __delegate__ the things you do. If they are not things that are of high value to you, then delegate them to someone else Always be in a cycle of doing this: eliminate, automate, delegate. ## References - [[Eisenhower Decision Matrix]]
