Daily Productive Sharing 1199 - Time Wealth

One helpful tip per day:)

Cory Zue says he works primarily to gain time:

  1. Hofstadter’s Law: Things always take longer than you expect, even when you take Hofstadter’s Law into account.
  2. Zue’s Law: Free time is always more valuable than you imagine, even when you take Zue’s Law into account.
  3. People often fight for a raise but rarely ask for fewer working hours—even when they don’t actually need the extra money.
  4. People say money can’t buy happiness, but time can get you pretty close.
  5. Having time means more opportunities to rest, take care of yourself, and invest in relationships. It also means less anxiety and fewer arguments with your partner over whose turn it is to watch the kids.
  6. Time itself may not directly create happiness, but it makes happiness much easier to achieve.
  7. Prioritize time and find ways to create more of it while still meeting the constraints of your life.
  8. In reality, this often means accepting a pay cut or finding ways to increase your hourly income before gradually building passive income. It’s not easy, but the hardest part is usually the mental shift required to commit to trying.
  9. That said, if you want to be extremely wealthy, important, or influential, you’ll likely have to accept a lifestyle of ‘time poverty.’
  10. Are these things more important than my time? If you could take back your evenings or claim Fridays off, what would happen? You might realize that an abundance of time is the most valuable form of wealth.

Cory Zue 说他工作主要是为了获得时间:

  1. 霍夫斯塔特定律:事情总是比你预期的花费更长时间,即使你已经考虑到了霍夫斯塔特定律。
  2. Zue 定律:自由时间总是比你想象的更有价值,即使你已经考虑到了 Zue 定律。
  3. 人们经常争取加薪,却很少要求减少工作时间——即使他们并不需要额外的钱。
  4. 人们常说金钱买不来幸福,但时间却能无限接近它。
  5. 拥有时间意味着有更多机会休息、照顾自己、投资于人际关系。它还意味着更少的焦虑,以及更少因“轮到谁照看孩子”而与伴侣争执。
  6. 时间本身可能不会直接带来幸福,但它能让幸福变得更容易。
  7. 让时间成为优先事项,并找到创造更多时间的方法,同时仍然满足生活中的其他限制。
  8. 实际上,这通常意味着接受降薪,或者找到提高每小时收入的方法,然后逐步建立被动收入。这并不容易,但最困难的往往是心理上真正下定决心去尝试。
  9. 话虽如此,如果你想变得非常富有、重要或有影响力,你很可能不得不接受“时间贫困”的生活方式。
  10. 这些事情比我的时间更重要吗?如果你能重新掌控自己的晚上,或者争取周五休息,会发生什么?你可能会发现,时间的富足比任何其他形式的财富都更珍贵。
