In this episode, recorded straight from Costa Rica during a family celebration, I dive into a transformative conversation around time—one of the most precious yet misunderstood resources. We’ve been taught to think about time through a lens of scarcity: rushing from one deadline to the next, believing there’s never enough time in a day. But what if you flipped that script? Shifting your mindset from scarcity to abundance changes how you experience time and, in turn, how you thrive in business and life.
Throughout this episode, I explore how this simple mindset shift gives you control over your schedule, allowing you to delegate efficiently, integrate rest into your life, and truly experience freedom. I also walk you through my planning strategy using the 12-week system, sharing how tools like ChatGPT help me map out my workday with built-in breaks—because rest isn’t a luxury; it’s a necessity.
One powerful reframe I offer: Instead of saying, “I don’t have time,” say, “I’ve chosen to prioritize this.” This shift puts you back in the driver’s seat, empowering you to plan smarter and take ownership. I also discuss practical ways to handle your workload:
- The Pomodoro Technique: Manage non-creative tasks with focused 20-minute intervals.
- Batching Tasks: Group similar activities to stay efficient and in flow.
- Morning Prioritization: Write down the top three tasks you must accomplish each day—“eat the frog first,” as I like to say.
Lastly, I emphasize how essential scheduled rest is to high performance. Having a list of enjoyable activities, whether it’s dancing, meditating, or chatting with ChatGPT, ensures that your rest is intentional and rewarding. Don’t just manage your time—create an abundant life where rest, work, and thriving coexist.
