In an inspiring session titled “Time Investment,” Nano, host of the Mornings with Nano podcast, dives deep into one of the most important but overlooked resources we all possess: time. Through personal stories, scriptural references, and motivational insights, Nano urges his audience to reframe how they view and use their time, offering a blueprint for how intentional time management can lead to spiritual, personal, and financial breakthroughs.

⏳ Time is the Real Currency of Success

Unlike money, which can be lost and regained, time is non-renewable. Once it’s gone, it’s gone forever. Yet, society places a much higher value on money than it does on time. Nano challenges this mindset and repositions time as the ultimate asset. “Money is glorified, but who’s glorifying time?” he asks. The key takeaway is that time, not talent or luck, separates those who succeed from those who struggle.

💡 Time Spent vs. Time Invested

There are only two things you can do with your time: spend it or invest it. Time spent is often wasted—scrolling on social media, gossiping, or watching endless Netflix. In contrast, time invested includes anything that produces a return: reading, praying, working out, listening to podcasts, or building your business.

Nano shares examples from his own life:

• Swapping music for audio books while driving

• Reading instead of scrolling to spark business ideas

• Spending hours developing his retreat business and reaping financial and spiritual rewards

📊 Your Results Reflect Your Time Habits

Your current life results are the compounded interest of how you’ve spent or invested your time over the past 6 to 12 months. If you’re not happy with where you are, it’s likely a sign that your time wasn’t invested wisely.

Nano recommends a powerful self-assessment:

“How much of your day is invested, and how much is wasted?”

He also suggests auditing your screen time to expose hidden time drains.

🧱 The Boulder Story: Obedience and Consistency

One of the most powerful parts of the session is Nano’s telling of the boulder story, where a man is instructed by God to push a boulder daily. Despite no visible progress, God later reveals the purpose: obedience and character development.

This story illustrates a core message:

Even when results aren’t visible, consistency in investing your time pays off in the long run.

🎯 The Core Four: How Nano Divides His Day

Nano outlines his personal system for maximizing daily productivity:

1. Personal Development: Morning routines, prayer, journaling, gym, reading

2. Skill/Brand Building: Developing the Nano brand via content, social media, and podcasting

3. Business (Alpha Society): Coaching, customer service, and community leadership

4. Social Media: Building awareness and extending his message

He devotes 10–12 of his 16 waking hours to these areas, showing how structure leads to sustained success.

🛠️ Time and Purpose for the Working Professional

For those working full-time jobs or managing families, Nano encourages using remaining time wisely. He suggests:

• Using weekends for focused 4–5 hour work sessions

• Making small progress daily or weekly

• Reframing free time as opportunity windows to invest in purpose

Even 40–50 hours monthly can change your life when invested intentionally.

🙏 God First, Time Second — Money Follows

Nano ties his success to his faith-first philosophy, quoting Matthew 6:33:

“Seek first the Kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all things will be added unto you.”

He testifies how his financial breakthroughs came only after he prioritized time with God over chasing money. Once he obeyed spiritual instruction, speaking engagements, business success, and peace began to flow naturally.

🍎 The Fruit Never Lies

Citing Matthew 7:20 — “By their fruit you will recognize them” — Nano shows how consistent time investment in faith, personal growth, and purpose leads to tangible results. From sold-out retreats to launching a podcast with a $40M+ mentor, he attributes it all to disciplined use of time and obedience to divine instruction.

👣 Final Words: Push the Boulder

Nano leaves the audience with one message:

Keep pushing the boulder.

Even when results are slow, remain consistent, trust God, and invest your time wisely. The payoff—spiritually, mentally, and financially—will come when the time is right.
