HFHQ 132: Why the First 15 Minutes of Your Day Are the Most Important: Interview With Craig Ballantyne

Listen to This Episode

Episode 132: Show Notes

The first 15 minutes of your day are the most important part of the day.

If you want to be successful in business, in real estate, or in your personal life, what you do with those first 15 minutes matters more than just about anything else.

If I told you that you could 10X your productivity, get more done, feel better about yourself and your work, and spend more time with your family doing what you love, all by setting aside just 15 minutes of your morning… would you want to know how?

Craig is the owner of EarlyToRise.com and the author of the book The Perfect Day Formula… and in this episode, Craig breaks down some incredible success and productivity hacks… including the first thing you should do in the morning when you wake up, why your morning actually starts the night before, how to structure your day to achieve the maximum, and a whole lot more.

If you’re a real estate investor, that makes you an entrepreneur… and that means you alone are responsible for managing your time and your business effectively.  This stuff is extremely important.

The tips Craig shares in this episode are already changing my life… check it out!
