What is Worth Your Time?
What am I willing to do for X? What am I willing to give up for X?
Remember the exercise where you calculated how many Saturdays you had left in your life? You want to run all of your decisions through your why and your values.
For example, when I was a realtor, I worked in Vancouver. However, I would often get calls for a city called Squamish that was just an hour away. Wow, that’s an hour of driving away, so how I would decide if this was worth my time is, I would figure out what the total commission or amount would be. I would look at that number and then I would ask myself the question: if the number was $30,000, how many times am I willing to drive to Squamish for $30,000? Instead of thinking, oh my, it’s an hour away, I looked at it as an ROI on my possible return and what I would be willing to put in to get that.
