Bank It!!

"BANK IT!" In business that would mean, " you've made a profit, bank it now". It's a phrase I coined from my life long friend, photo journalist Roger Horrocks and it has a different meaning to us.

You life is a set of experiences and memories, that either happen as you aimlessly wander through life, or that you make happen. If you are anything like me you have busy days filled with stuff that sucks your time, demands your time. You have to engineer the experiences you want in life, do them and "BANK IT!". Then it's done, no one can take them away from you.

Here is my way of doing it..

Tomorrow is hectic, meetings at work, a project to complete. I go to bed at 8.30pm (don't let TV suck your time every night), waking early at 5.00am. I head down to the beach, and go spearfishing in the warm, blue waters of Natal's North Coast. I shoot a 10kg Couta and catch a bag of crayfish, back on the beach at 8.30am "BANK IT!" By 9.00 I am at my desk answering emails and heading to a meeting. It doesn't matter what the day brings now...I have had a great experience and I did "BANK IT!"

or

I get up at 5.00am and spend an hour working on my emails or project. At 6.00am it's time for the kids to get up for school. Sue makes the sandwiches and packs bags while I get them dressed and cleaned up. While they are having breakfast I go down to the beach and have a swim"BANK IT!", back in time to take them to school. Sue and I have planned to go down to the beach at 3.30pm, and play in the sand with the kids.I finished work early because I started early "BANK IT!"

BLOG about "BUYING TIME" and making sure you "BANK IT!!"

My life has been an adventure with many milestones, with many directions and ambitions, but the one underlying theme been "BUYING TIME". I believe time is a commodity which can be bought like any other commodity, and can be stored up and used at will later in life.

I am a businessman, an entrepreneur, and hope my journals will give you hope, that's it is possible to live your dreams.

In this site you'll discover two terms I use frequently, "BUYING TIME" and "BANK IT!!", a term I share with my life long friend, photo journalist Roger Horrocks.

I know that these two sayings will enrich your life and define it as a life with purpose, if you grasp them with both hands and embrace their concept.
