You don’t need more time. You don’t need more motivation or inspiration or another planner, course, shiny object, or time management method… you more attention. And LESS distractions and clutter. 

I recently did an episode on Time Management and Experiments in Productivity, and today we’re going to bring a fresh spin as we get into attention management, reducing distractions, and freeing yourself of mental clutter! My goal is that this episode will help you reduce and eliminate and feel less frazzled, distracted, and ahhhh more focused. 

In the episode: 

  • What if time isn't the problem? 
  • The nature and stats of distraction (it's not your fault!) 
  • How to choose where your attention goes based on seasons, balance, and what you need in your business 
  • 4 Ways to distraction-proof yourself 
    • Setting up your "In the Zone" zone 
    • Using weekly and daily attention-setting goals 
    • Ruthlessly filtering inputs
    • Distraction-proofing is a lifestyle 
  • And more!
