The reality for pretty much all of us is life is busy man and you got to hunt when you can.

0:04.6

You know, we all got a job, maybe you got a job of wife, kids, whatever the case may be, time is limited.

0:09.6

If there's anything I've learned from a lot of these guests that we've had on in the past,

0:12.9

it's you got to make it count and you got to be efficient.

0:15.5

One of the ways that I've been able to improve my efficiency drastically this year

is by using the wind calendar feature on on X.
