Bethenny Frankel shares her No. 1 tip for success: 'Procrastination is the thief of time'
If you want to be as successful as Bethenny Frankel, the millionaire entrepreneur says there's one skill you need to master: organization.
Sure, it's great to be smart and hardworking, but if you can't keep all your ducks in a row you'll never be able to achieve your full potential, the former "Real Housewife" and co-star of CNBC's "Money Court" tells CNBC Make It.
"I don't think I could have this bandwidth without being so organized," she says. "I can do 10 times the amount that somebody else can do by being so organized."
If you're aspiring to become more organized in your own life, Frankel says that the easiest way to begin is to simply get to work.
"Procrastination is the thief of time," Frankel says. "Check the box. Get it done. Move on."
