How much is your time really worth?

“At this point, I was worth 125$/hour. Then I made the decision, if there’s anything I’ve been doing with my time, that could be done by spending less than 125$ an hour, then I’d be an idiot by doing it. If I enjoy it, it’s a different story, but if I’m not, it’s just stupid.

So I paired that kind of idea, what kind of value would I place on my time? Even if I paid a premium, if I paid someone 75$ an hour for someone to mow my lawn, it would be worth it.

Most people don’t value their time enough and don’t look at it objectively enough. Like anything else, it’s a resource and it’s finite.

Put a number on it and then ask yourself, what am I doing with my time that is not worth that?”
