Think in terms of minutes rather than hours. Make every minute count. Move faster in everything you do. Pick up the pace. Develop a sense of urgency and a bias for action. Move quickly.
When you get in to the office, don’t wait until the coffee is ready. Get to work. And when you start work, work all the time you work. Don’t drop off your dry cleaning, pick up your laundry, or go shopping. Work every minute and every hour.
Make a decision to earn the reputation as the hardestworking person in your company. Don’t tell anyone about your decision. Just make sure that, when anyone looks at you, you are working full blast. You don’t take breaks or waste time. As far as you’re concerned, this is not playtime. It is work time.
If someone says, “Have you got a minute to talk?” say, “Sure, but not right now. Right now I have to get back to work!”
