Default finding more time...

> Let's say you have several good ideas for
> creating some passive income streams.

are these ideas in your head? or in a journal?
or on notecards? on a tape recording?...I find
you can save a lot of time if you have some
type of system to either record, take notes on
3x5's ...you'll have to find either a voice
recognition tool or notetaking method that is
quick and fast. Then hire someone else to
edit and translate into a saleable product such
as an audio tape etc. ...after that possibly
hire or jv with someone else to dropship it.

I've always kept journals...that works for me.
You can always go back and pull out things from
it and put together a book , booklet etc....
now I know others who tape record while doing
something else...

In your case if you can find the time...mindmap
if there is any time in the day when you can
get your ideas out of head in a format from which
someone else can transcribe etc.

If there is absolutely no time...then perhaps
you'll have to wait until you get a block of
time( mini vacation) or 1 day sabbatical from
everything and just concentrate on getting every
thing down on paper or notecards or recordings.

Don't overlook Ghostwriters in some cases.
When you don't have the time you give up some
money and pay someone else for their time.
Sometimes we need to look at why we don't want
to pay someone else for their time.
Mary Kay( no I don't sell cosmetics anymore but
I did and made quite a bit) one of the most
successful entrepreuners always encouraged people
to hire household help....

and people would scream: "where do I get the
money?"...she said...that's the point...If you
hire the maid first you'll have time to work
to earn the money and pay the maid and even make
extra money for yourself....

you have to find the things in life which can
be delegated and which does not take away from
the quality of your life and relationships.

another example....rush limbaugh's weight loss...
He spent a lot of time fixing meals, thinking
about meals etc...It was only when he hired a
cook he had more time, less stress and voila
natural weight loss.

I have family members who were domestics and
heard the numerous stories about the amount of
time the wealthy had for family and making money because someone else took care of the details.

Delegate,Delegate....
often time issues are manifestations of deeper
issues with Trust and confidence in other people.
Think about this. It's often hard to admit you
might want to do everything yourself because you
don't think others are capable of doing a better
job.

Hope some of these ideas are helpful or at
least give you something to look at...
