9 Lessons I Learned About Buy Back Your Time by Dan Martell: How I Broke the Hustle Cycle and Built a Business That Served Me First (Personal Reflection Book)
There's a peculiar paradox at the heart of ambition. The more driven we are, the more time seems to slip through our fingers. We chase efficiency like it's the golden ticket, only to find ourselves ensnared in an endless loop of doing. It's not a new phenomenon.
In the 1950s, economists believed technology would eventually give us 20-hour workweeks. Instead, we check email at midnight and take meetings in cars, on walks, even in the bathroom.
I remember a conversation I had with a mentor early in my entrepreneurial career. He asked me how many hours I was working.
I answered with pride: "Probably 80 a week." He didn't smile. Instead, he asked a question that rattled me. "And what would happen if you stopped?"
I blinked. I didn't know. I'd built a business that only ran when I was running. Like a circus act. It was impressive. It was exhausting. And it was unsustainable.
Dan Martell's Buy Back Your Time is a manual for those of us who have built traps and called them empires. But more than that, it's a kind of psychological excavation.
