Hi, I’m Andy and I’m the one behind TimeSmart.
So, how did it all come about?
Having been that person in the pursuit of more thinking it will get better eventually … to put more hours in to get more done, to be more available to serve more people, and to continue to take more new things on to improve results, all it got me after an 18 year career was 80 hours a week, not delivering the results I wanted, constantly exhausted, frequently frustrated, and burnt out.
So out of desperation, and inspired by a story from the early 1900’s about Ivy Lee and Charles M Schwab, I set about the pursuit of doing less to achieve more, after all, what had I got to lose? I wasn’t prepared to carry on with the way it was!
Within a month I was down to about 40 hours a week, and stayed there, and during my final two years in corporate life I had the two most successful years in my 20-year career. All whilst doing 20, 30 and 40 hours less a week than I had done in the previous 18 years!
It was scarily simple to do, once I worked out what to do, and how to do it. And for over a decade I have been sharing what I did with Business Owners, Entrepreneurs, and Managers helping them to do the same.
