[00:01:15]
Genecia Alluora: Hello, gorgeous, and welcome to Soul Why Secrets of the Soul Rich Woman Blueprint. In this episode, I want to share with you the excuse of I have no time, Janisha. 2.2s Well, yes, a lot of people tell me I have no time to work on my F word being fabulous, having freedom, financial independence, and family lee. But I want to make money, Genecia. I want to be famous. I want to be doing the things that you are doing, but I have no time. Oh, my God. All right, so I want to talk about this. This is very funny. I thought it's very interesting because your ideas won't make you wealthy, famous, or successful. It only will be good and successful, famous and wealthy if you put in the effort, if you do the work, because it's yours. Right? So I want to talk about time wasters. I used to for a period of time when I was a little bit depressed and don't know what to do. I was binge watching Netflix. Okay. Netflix. I watch different dramas.

[00:02:36]
Genecia Alluora: I watch my documentaries. I love watching my crime movies. Everything possible as long as it's crime. Anything related to police, anything that's related to something that is mystery. Yeah. Sci-fi. So I like all these kind of stuff, right, and binge watch them, like, spend days binge watching entire maybe 50 episodes, like, six seasons, that kind of binge watching. Okay? I'm at that level of binge watching that you wouldn't believe it. I am laughing at myself now as I'm telling you this truth. Hashtag truth. Okay? I swear to you, I totally, totally, totally binge watch a part of my life away. Thank God that's WiFi. So such a time waster is bad for us, okay? I know. My mentor tells me, hey, you should stop binge watching. And I'm like, whatever that you say. I'm like brushing it off, pushing it away. And a lot of people say they have no time. And for me, even though I am okay, back in those days, I was still okay making okay money, all right? Doing the work that I like to do. But I was wasting my time because I choose to spend it where it matters.

[00:04:06]
Genecia Alluora: So let's talk about time, right? What is it that matter to you? Same thing. Need versus want. Oh, I want to watch this. Netflix movies. Oh, I've got to watch all these comedies. I've got to do this. But look at it this way. What is bigger than yourself? I've noticed that people whom are very focused and really successful, like, I've hang out Mary Buffett. I hang out with Cheryl Sandberg. They don't have time to binge watch Gary Vee. He has absolutely no time. He keep looking at how he can share his content out there so that more people, more millennials, more individuals will hear his message. What about you? Do you have something bigger than yourself? Do you have a dream? Do you have a vision? Do you even have a dream board that you're working towards? Do you have a long term goal and strategy versus a short term goal and strategy to work towards?

[00:05:17]
Genecia Alluora: Are you feeling lost in the things that you're doing? Waking up, not knowing what to do? Okay. I hear you. All right? Stop giving me the excuses in your brain right now. So first thing first. Write down what is your dream. Write down what is your dream. What do you believe in? What do you want to achieve? Number two I want you to write down what you're doing in the next five days, morning till night. Keep a logbook, a record in your journal or in the notes of your mobile phone. I want you to write down what exactly are you doing every single time? That means from the moment you wake up, what is that thing that you do? What is that thing that you are doing every single hour? Like an hourly report? Give me an hourly report right now. What exactly are you doing every single hour the moment you are awake from now that you listen to this podcast in the next following five days, okay?

[00:06:24]
Genecia Alluora: Be truthful, be honest, don't play cheat. And after this exercise, I want you to sit down and reflect and look at the five days activities that you are doing and position that in relation to your dream. Look at your dream and look at the things that you're doing now. Are you busy with busyness or are you busy with your business of your dreams? Are you busy with busyness or the business of repositioning yourself to be seen as a leader online so that you can be hithunted, so that you get better salary jobs, so that you can do the things that you want to do closer to your dreams? I know five days is quite short, but I know that some of you don't have the patience or will probably just stop by the second day. I know, I've been there exactly. But five days is a good time for you to reflect what are you doing on a daily basis to take a step closer towards your dreams? What is it that you want in the results?

[00:07:42]
Genecia Alluora: I know you have many things on your plate right now, but are those important to bring you closer to your dreams, to the things that you want? What if God tell you or the universe tells you? Today, I have a magic wand for you. And you can wave this magic wand right now, at this instant and achieve your dreams. But you must do the steps, take the journey, go on the process to achieve your dreams. Would it be different in the way you choose your steps, your process and the things of your path on the journey that you'll be doing, would it be different? You wave the magic wand. God gives you the magic wand for you to choose right now at this instant, to achieve your dreams. And I say if you wave this magic wand plus the steps that you take right now, I'm going to give it to you now.

[00:08:49]
Genecia Alluora: Will you do it differently? Will you take the steps differently? Because you can't be prepared, right? You cannot not be prepared for your dreams. There must be some foundation that you need to do, the things that you need to take the journey that you need to go through, the failures or the successes, the mentors you need to have, the strategies that you need to put in place. There must be something that must be in place, right? You build a house, you have a house. That house must be in place, right? The foundations must be in place. Build a house on sand and your house gets swept away. Build a house on rocks and that is when your dreams will stay. Your house was there. So time is a relative word. Even a billionaire. Warren Buffett, world greatest investor, I will call him. He said he is so rich that he can buy anything with money. Time is the only thing that he can't use money to buy.

[00:10:01]
Genecia Alluora: I learned my lesson of binge watching my Netflix and watching my K dramas and my mystery shows that I want to watch. Because by wasting my time binge watching Netflix, watching my dramas and wasting my time away, I'm helping supporting one woman less. Because my dream is to support 1 million women to own and love the F word being fabulous, having freedom, financial independence and family. So today, my friend, look at what you're doing now. Are you taking steps and actions to really look at how you're using your time more wisely? I know everything in life is very important. I've been there. But what is more important to whatever that you choose, remember, compare it with the time you spend every single day and looking it in relative to your dreams. How far or how close are they? I hope this episode sets you thinking well. Looking forward to see you in the next episode. Bye for now.
