The Other 8 Hours: Maximize Your Free Time to Create New Wealth & Purpose |
You sleep (hopefully) for 8 hours. You work (at least) 8 hours. What are you doing in those remaining 8 hours of your day, and more importantly, what are the other 8 hours doing for you? To the bleary-eyed worker who doesn't have time to stop and catch his breath, the idea of having 8 hours may sound absurd. If that's you, this is your wake-up call. THE OTHER 8 HOURS provides a blueprint that will help you carve out more time in your day and find the inspiration to spend that free time in a more productive way. Whether you want to pay off debt, make more money, start a business, develop a hobby, write a blog, or write the next great American novel, Robert Pagliarini will get you closer to living a richer, more fulfilled life. In THE OTHER 8 HOURS, you'll learn how to:
- GET MORE TIME: Chances are you are overworked, overscheduled, and overstressed. There's too much to do and not enough time. You can create hours of additional free time you never knew you had.
- GET MORE MONEY: Traditional financial advice has likely left you frustrated and stuck. Pagliarini introduces new, highly-effective yet unconventional strategies.
- GET A LIFE: In order to "get rich" you have to "get a life." The other 8 hours ultimately determine your happiness and net worth.
With anecdotes and inspiration from many who have taken control of their other 8 hours, plus hands-on tools for getting started, minimizing risk, and maximizing success, you'll discover new ways to radically improve your life both personally and financially. Isn't it time to recapture your time and your life?

I finished this book just last week and it has already helped me. FYI - Robert's tip on "specialization" really works! For years I have wanted to find out where my grandparents from Italy were from. I work with someone who does this as a hobby and who is an expert at it. I happened to know that she loves my cakes (my hobby), so I suggested that she do the research for me (I spent hours on it and come up with nothing), and I would make her favorite chocolate cake. I got my geneology questions answered (finally!).
After reading "The Other 8 Hours", I have made a list of concrete things I am going to do (and not do) to maximize my free time (school, invention idea, thinking of ways I can turn my hobbies into income) - at one point, these would have seemed like huge, overwhelming tasks, but Robert has a way of making them seem manageable. Robert's writing style and sense of humor makes this book very motivational and FUNNY!
I would highly recommend this book to anyone who is feeling in a rut and wants to have a renewed sense of purpose in their lives.
I'm a stay-at-home mom to three kids ages 5 and under. At first glance I didn't think this book would apply to me because my 24-hour days are not segmented into 8 sleeping/8 working/8 other. It's more like 6 sleeping + 24 hour on-call duty. My focus is certainly not on maximizing wealth or furthering my now non-existent career. I intended for my husband to read this book rather than myself.
However, the book grabbed me in the first chapter where the story told of what happens when preparation meets opportunity. From there on, page after another, I kept learning something new on how to use my time more effectively and efficiently (definitely applicable to my crazy days juggling 3 kids schedules on top of neverending household responsibilities!). The book is easy to read with many engaging and thought-provoking stories, and tools like internet websites, that help to organize and manage my "life clutters". I have been able to glean from practically every page a new idea/concept that I can immediately apply to my days.
Thank you, Robert, for sharing your wisdom and passion! You are inspiring!
I found this book to be an excellent resource for getting extra money or extra family time out of your life. What I found particularly helpful was the blueprints/diagrams for creating income in the hours you are not asleep or at work. The diagrams were simple pathways to making extra money in your spare time. The author also listed many resources on the internet to use to launch a business or to follow your passion. I am an computer novice so the pratical advice to get started with a blog or website was excellent. I found the book to be an easy read and I did so on my morning commute on a train within one week. I highly recommend this book to people who are beginning their search for extra income or extra quality time out of life.
Fantastic book and highly recommended!
The 'Other 8 Hours' by Robert Pagliarini is a great read and will motivate you to use your precious free time most effectively. This book challenges the assumption that if we work, have families, etc., that we have no time to invest in reaching our financial aspirations. Similar to establishing a budget, once you take an honest assessment of how you spend your free time, it becomes obvious that there are time wasting activities that can be eliminated or reduced.
The book also contains very useful references to resources to help you reach your financial goals.
I also appreciate Robert's emphasis that reaching your financial goals does not mean neglecting your family and health obligations.
Very inspirational, and I look forward to implementing his recommendations for creating additional wealth.
I highly recommend this book to everyone who has too many tasks or is struggling with debt. It is a fun and instructive book that gives a new
pespective for many and is full of ideas and proposals on how to have a life with purpose. In my view the author is bringing a structured and direct
with good personal examples about what works and what do not. The book encourage you to do homework and personal review which can lead to personal growth.
