In Time Machine, Kris Krohn has written a new book about managing our time and learning to get our focus back on what matters. He begins the book by explaining time is not money. A lot of us believe that time is valuable. We all have the same amount of time in a day, 1440 minutes. He revealed how we need to know when to say yes to things and when to say no thanks and move on. He looked at how we can accumulate money and we can do this by saving, investing, and spending. He explained how only 16% of Americans have $200,000 in retirement and this can lead to a problem of having very little to live off of. In the book, he shared that his company grew by 200% while he was writing this book. He chooses to work Mondays, Tuesday, and Thursday. Wednesday is bliss day, Friday kid day, Saturday his day, and Sunday Lord’s Day. He feels that making more money shouldn’t require us from having to spend more of our time. He opened up about his different jobs and buying real estate. He explored the lens system and came up with two new standards: delegation and yes. He walks readers through how to discovered how to use their time more wisely.
I would recommend this eye-opening book about time and figuring how what matters. I honestly don’t see how he is able to personally work only three days a week and gets to spend that much time with his family compared to others who work way over that many hours. Maybe this is a struggle for me. I thought this part was kind of crazy. I appreciated how he revealed how we need to only say yes to the activities that will benefit us that is twice as much as our highest hourly rate. He enclosed some examples to show the lessons in action.

Kris Krohn's "Time Machine" challenges the conventional wisdom of equating time with money, urging readers to consider its greater value. The book presents a system based on five lenses—logic, money, joy, energy, and intuition—to guide decision-making and optimize time allocation for an accelerated path to success and a life with less regret. Reviewers describe it as an interesting and informative read that offers strategies for prioritization and time management, ultimately shifting one's perspective on daily commitments. This book could be a valuable resource for those seeking a mindset reset and a more intentional approach to their time.

Highly recommend to everyone. It's a great read and really shifts your thinking when it comes to time commitment and your daily life.

This was an interesting and informative read. I enjoyed the strategies and concepts covered in the book. This is a great mindset reset book. The book is well written and researched. The topics covered are well developed and communicated in an easy to read manner. This will expand your perspective for prioritization and time management.

The book start with a statement that "time is not money" because if we observe our lives, we all know the answer to what we value. All of us have 1440 minutes per day to use how we want and observe the outcome of our choices. In reality, what we need to do is to put some logic behind our choices and actions. It is important to appeal to our internal logic center, review finances, fulfillment level, and more. The in-depth understanding can support smart decisions with truly valuable outcomes for self and society.

In 'Time Machine,' Kris Krohn challenges conventional views of time and offers a transformative formula for making decisions that can accelerate success and enrich your life. Krohn's mission is to inspire people to live a life without regret, and he shares a systematic approach to evaluating life's commitments through five lenses: logic, money, joy, energy, and intuition.
Drawing parallels to the phoropter used by optometrists to achieve 20/20 vision, Krohn guides readers on how to adjust these five lenses to attain a clear perspective before committing time. The book introduces a unique way to arbitrage time, enabling individuals to make the most of their precious minutes.
Kris Krohn's insights provide a valuable framework for decision-making, empowering readers to live more intentionally and with purpose. 'Time Machine' is a must-read for those seeking to optimize their use of time and achieve a more fulfilling and regret-free life.
