We spend a lot of our waking hours working. It would be a shame if we didn't enjoy that time. We tell ourselves that we don't have a choice. We have to follow the overscheduled calendar in front of us, it's part of the job. That is not true and in today's episode, I explain why taking control back over how you spend your time is the fastest way to boost your satisfaction and empowerment. You can start seeing benefits this week.
What You'll Learn From This Episode:
- How we lose control of our calendar and become a taker of terms, both in how we manage our time and elsewhere
- Why other things will expand to fill in any free time in our calendar does exist
- Which calendar personality we have and the associated lurking culprit that created it
- Real-life, relatable stories of how sacrificing all our time for work can backfire
- Why taking control of our time is a great first mini-transformation in working our careers and living our lives by design
- The unlock available to set our own vision and embrace our autonomy, because it's hard to love what you do and to love your life, if you don't love how you spend your days
- What it would feel like when glancing ahead in our calendar to have butterflies of excitement and anticipation of what is to come
