Time Wasters, Bad for Self-Employed People!

[mildreddavis1]

When people talk to you and their conversation is not worth the time and effort you are spending talking to them, then they are not worth your time.

Motto I tell my clients -- Do not waste my time and I will not waste your money!!!

Some people will never be paying clients just ask questions and never intend on buying your products and/or services.

I have tried that with people who try to sell be something over the phone.  I tell them I have no money and they keep on trying and I than say you are wasting time because I don't have any money or credit cards, they still insist so I just hang up, I feel bad but its better for them to go on with the next call.

Time wasters are bad period. Not just when it comes to work. I have a lot of distractions that keep me from studying, so I have fallen way behind. Procrastination is often a culprit as well.
