It really is a by-product of the challenges I’ve had in my life. I learned to take control and steer my own course.
How long have you been writing?
Well over 20 years, but mostly in business writing.
Did you have a nine to five job before you decided to write a book?
I still have a nine to five, but I use it more wisely and take advantage of time trading to live life to the fullest.
What will readers learn from The Time Trading Guru?
People will learn to manage their perceptions and take the time to live life today and to become personally fulfilled in the process.
Explain time trading, please.
Absolutely, The Time Trading Guru is about using the levers of life: time, flexibility, and money and the DREAM process that provides steps to goal setting, to take life breaks. By following this blueprint you stop postponing your life to some time in the future and begin to live life today.
What makes you a time trading guru?
A guru simply means “teacher” and this is precisely what I do in my book and on my blog www.timetradingguru.com where I muse about living life now and not some time in the future.
How long did it take you to write The Time Trading Guru?
I’ve had the ideas for quite a few years, but when I actually put pen to paper it took me about 4 months to write the book.
Do you think it’s possible to be a dreamer and a realist?
Absolutely, if you don’t have dreams, you’ll never aspire to be more than you are, but at the same time you need to be realistic about the how to achieve things. Don’t compromise the things that mean the most along way.
