Time is money and time waits for no one.

Everyone must respect time.

No story, no excuses.

You're either early or you're late.

You're either there or we're gone, period.

Wow, right?

I love how clear that is.

I love that simplicity.

Welcome to Darren Daly on demand, your most trusted resource to help you become better

every day. Here's your success mentor, Darren Hardy. So yesterday, we talked about speed and

intensity. I'll tell you when I really got schooled on all this. I was still in my early 20s.

I was crossing the lobby of a hotel where I had just spoken at a conference. Paul J. Meyer,

a future mentor and another one of the speakers at the conference saw me and yelled out,

Hey, Darren, you want to ride back to Texas? Where I was living at the time. I said, that'd be great,

knowing that he had his own private plane.

He said, if you're back down here looking at his watch in four minutes, we'll take you with us,

he said. Luckily, I had pre-packed my bag and it was waiting up in my room. I rushed up to

retrieve it, called for checkout, and was back down in three minutes and 52 seconds flat.

When we got out of the car and walked through the private airport, I found myself having to make a little

jog step every fifth or sixth step just to keep up with Paul's gate.

Mind you, the man was 50 years, my senior.

When we boarded his plane, one of his executives said, we're just waiting for David.
