  1. "You MULTIPLY your time by giving yourself the EMOTIONAL PERMISSION to spend time on things TODAY that will give you more time TOMORROW." That's how you can become a multiplier. Interesting talk.

  2. WTF???
    He even flat out uses the same freakin' examples from the book 7 habits.

    This is almost satirical!

    This guy took Covey's non-urgent/important thingie and wrapped it in a shiny new name "significance", and calls it a new "dimension" of "thinking."

    I wonder if this guy is malicious, or if he actually believes himself.

    Just …
    Just read Covey's book and then watch this again. 

    Entertainment guaranteed ;)

  7. +Rory Vaden – really enjoyed your talk man! I was watching mine that finally went up, and yours was under it as a suggestion. Glad I listened. Cheers, brother…

  8. Weak.   There are far better talks about time management.    This guy not only says the obvious, but he's even unaware that what he claims to be "inventing" was already said and well understood by others.

  13. I use the mayan calendar to determine my life cycles, as well as the universe. and I use it to reincarnate and to know when time portals open. :D

  15. ewww, he ended it with religious stuff. not someone i need to be listening to. plus he took forever to get to the point.. it was maddening to listen to him. too much fluff

  16. I am a lecturer and professional in sales and marketing …and I wish, soon I talk like you.

  18. I enjoyed listening to you, you have a punching voice and overall your point on delegation was well received.

  20. Multiply means reproduce in some way . so basically god told us to go fuck ourselves . cool …. 

  21. I have always had problems with time ,thought that people who speak about time management have something missing , but with no real evidence !
    I was in need of such talk ,Thanks alot.

  24. I watch Brian Johnson's philosophers notes & he was talking about your books , this was the first time he talked about an author and I was like HOLY CRAP! MIND BLOWN! and researched more on my own , thanks for what you do, and leaving a trail of breadcrumbs so I can follow& figure it out for myself too-SarahJane

  26. That is the best talk I’ve seen this year.
    The message is clear and very well delivered.
    I am thinking such a great message should be known by more people.
    I want to translate it into Chinese subtitles, can I get your permission to do that?

  27. Love the idea of making a "significance calculation" beyond what's urgent and important.  Thanks for the insight, Rory!
