Personal Time Management – The Age of Speed

Posted by Vince Poscente International in Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington, TX on Sep 03, 2008

Personal time management is very important in today’s “more, faster, now” society. With The Age of Speed by Vince Poscente you can learn the best tips to make the most out of your time.



The Age of Speed is a revolutionary book that tackles one of the most fundamental commodities in life: time.  In a series of short essays, Vince examines the ways in which free time continues to decrease while dissatisfaction continues to increase. In this “more, faster, now” “Crackberry” world time management is no longer a tool, but a necessity. Vince outlines the ways in which companies life spans range from the very short to long lasting and reliable. He targets companies like Eastman Kodak as “Zeppelins” for refusing to accept the speed of technology eventually causing them to crash and burn. At the same time he finds companies like Google great examples of the “Jet,” streamlined and fast. His guidelines for not only taking the most from personal time as well as the best practices for business are invaluable.

Perhaps it is Vince’s unique position of successful businessman, bestselling author of The Age of Speed, and Olympic athlete that make him such a one of a kind among time management speakers. Due to his position as a business expert he has the unique ability to compare the competition that separates the ordinary from the most elite in the world with modern business. It takes the same methods and state of mind to become the best of the best in the Olympics and business, two things which are much more similar than many realize. It is these most important of skills and ideas that Vince focuses on: time management, determination and hard work.

At the late age of 26 Vince decided that he was going to take a shot at becoming an Olympian. Of course, training for the Olympics is usually something that is begun at a very young age so Vince had some catching up to do. Utilizing truly unorthodox training methods and learning with one of the best teams in the world was only half of the solution. Driven by an insatiable desire to succeed, Vince realized the power of his own determination and that power has led him through life ever since.

After Vince’s successful Olympic climb he went on to obtain a Masters in Organizational Management and then become a managing partner at a large media communications agency. Now as a professional speaker, Vince travels across the country with his exceptional insight about the shrinking of personal time and his inspirational story, making a difference wherever he stops.

Vince’s unique ability in life is to get the most out of it. He takes both readers of The Age of Speed and audiences of his amazing keynotes through specific strategies to maximize personal time and happiness. By tackling the notion of slow and steady, Vince makes a compelling case for the utilization of speed. This one of a kind view leads to reduced stress, increased personal time, and more satisfaction in a world that is quickly losing its appreciation for time spent well. Vince’s thrilling speeches reflect his motivational attitude. With time management and the power of speed, audiences have the tools that can take them from good to great.

Vince shows audiences what its like to plunge down a snowy mountain at 135 miles an hour strapped to nothing but two thin skis. His time management keynote will blow away the audience with engaging live media and high-energy music. Vince blends the power and adrenaline of his Olympic career with the drive and success of his business career to truly make a conference or keynote address effective and long lasting. Vince focuses on the notion of peak performance, working and succeeding at your utmost highest condition. Utilizing this unique method for success, businesses are not only more successful, but also make the best use of what’s available, allowing them to enjoy more personal time, while discarding that which holds them back.

Other speakers will go through the same tired routines, focusing on quality over quantity, the benefits of hard work, and other regurgitated clichés. Vince is different. With his Olympic experience and proven record of success, he will focus not on the clichés but on what really needs to be done. Vince is an expert at Peak Performance, and with his skills and advice, Peak Performance is exactly what you will achieve. It’s no secret that it takes practice to make perfect, but without the determination and drive of a winner, practice and diligence is near meaningless. This is what truly makes Vince unique among speakers.
