"Show me your calendar and bank account, and I'll tell you what's important to you." This brutal truth is about to confront every busy professional, entrepreneur and leader listening today. April takes you through a revealing audit of your last 30 days and next 30 days to expose the gap between what you say matters and where you actually spend your time.
Key Takeaways:
✅ The Calendar-Bank Account Truth Test: Why these two documents don't lie about your real priorities
✅ The Priority Paradox: How we defend "important" things that never make our schedule
✅ Decade-End Reckoning: Why this audit matters more as we close out this decade
✅ The Ownership Audit: Spotting how much of your calendar is hijacked by others' agendas
✅ Scheduled Goals vs. Wishful Thinking: The shocking reality of how many goals actually get time blocks
Powerful Questions:
-
What recurring meetings/events would you NEVER put on a fresh calendar today?
-
Where are the "invisible priorities" you claim matter but never schedule?
-
What percentage of your calendar represents YOUR priorities vs. others'?
Action Steps:
✔ Conduct the 30/30 Audit (review last 30 days/next 30 days)
✔ Color-code entries: Green = aligned with goals, Red = someone else's priority
✔ Cancel/Delegate 3 "Red" items within 48 hours
✔ Schedule 3 "Missing Priority" blocks before year-end
Quote:
"Your calendar is your priorities in ink - stop lying to yourself in pencil."
