HI Hoopers!

If you are self-employed or interested in starting your own business, I strongly recommend you check out The Four Hour Work Week by Tim Ferris. Not only is it a good read in itself, Tim is a funny guy and the book an amusing read, but it also has all kinds of good information about how to make the most of your time.

He shares a popular principle called the 80/20 principle. This is the idea that many business' spend 80% of their time of 20% of their costumers/products/income generating services. He then gives ideas of how to minimize your time wasters, generate more free time and as a result give you more time for generating additional income.

Anyways, check it out. Buy it in stores or download it from iTunes.

Or if you pirate things you can also Bittorrent it.

Much love,
Safire

Great idea! I'll have to check it out.
I've heard good things about this book - thanks for sharing. I just quit my day job and need all the help I can get now that I'm a full-time hoop dance instructor/ hoop maker/ performer. Gracias.
Just picked up this book!
I just borrowed it from the library.  including this post, 3 times suggesting in one week means I have to try it!  goodbye working hard; hello  working smart!

Read it last year - a great inspiration, and not only for the business people amongst us. I find time management is important for everyone especially in these days of hanging out on forums and facebook :)
