  You don't have enough time.

• 0:04Jocko Willink?

  And no one does.

• 0:06Jocko Willink?

  No one has enough time. It's a finite commodity. And we're all running out of time. And that is why we can't waste any time.

• 0:18Jocko Willink?

  Can't waste time. Sitting around and doing nothing. Can't waste time scrolling through social media. You can't waste time. Flipping through the various streaming movies. That are available to you. Can't do that. You can't waste time.

  Not a second. In fact, what you need to do every chance you get is you need to make time.

• 0:46Jocko Willink?

  You need to make time. You need to get up earlier. You need to. Pick up the pace when you're going to your car, maybe even jog a little bit.

• 0:57Jocko Willink?

  Rest less between your sets when you're working out. Focus harder when you're at work so you can get the job done faster.

• 1:07Jocko Willink?

  Put a schedule together. And, and compress your meetings and your calls. See where you can save. Three minutes. Or five minutes or 10 minutes.

• 1:19Jocko Willink?

  How can you? How can you move faster with more efficiency and maximum effectiveness? You save those three minutes, you save those five minutes and those minutes add up.

• 1:32Jocko Willink?

  And those minutes become hours. And days. And weeks.

• 1:39Jocko Willink?

  That is how you make time. So. Get that sense of urgency.

• 1:49Jocko Willink?

  And go get after it.
