Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey, they're awesome humans. Welcome back to build your stoic core.
I'm your host, Madison Lane, and today we're diving headfirst
into something that affects us all our relationship with time
ever feel lake time is slipping through your fingers faster
than a ruguised cream cun on a hot day. You
know that feeling when you blink and suddenly it's Friday
afternoon and you haven't even finished that to de list

(00:22):
from Monday. Yeah, we've all been there. But what if
I told you we could actually transform our relationship with time,
turning those frantic sprints into mindful strolls. Sounds pretty epic, right,
So buckle up, because today we're unpacking five key takeaways
that will help you reclaim control over your precious time
and unlock a hole new level of peace and productivity.

(00:44):
Ready to level up, let's go. First off, it's all
about recognizing the illusion of endless time. We tend to
think there's always more time, but let's be real that
clock is taking for all of us. Time is finite,
A non renewable resource, means we need to treat it
with respect. Imagine your day like a delicious pizza. You
wouldn't just mindlessly devoured in one bite, would you? He

(01:08):
savor each lies righte Applying the same principle to our
time helps us make conscious choices about how we spend it. Secondly,
lestitch the multitasking myth seriously. Studies show that multi taking
actually decreases productivity and increases stress. Think of your brain
like a powerful computer trying to juggle too many things
that once can lead to crashes and arrows. Focus on

(01:31):
one task at a time, give it your full attention,
and watch those results skyrocket. Number three, schedule your meantime.
It's not selfish, it's essential. Just like hea'd schedule a
doctor's appointment or a meeting with a client, Prioritize time
for yourself to recharge and reconnect. This could be anything
from reading a good book to taking a walk in nature.

(01:51):
Find what nourishes your soul and make it a non
negotiable part of your week. Fourth, learn to say no gracefully.
This one can be tough, but trust me, it's liberating.
Saying yes to everything often leads to overwhelm and resentment.
Practice politely declining commitments that don't align with your priorities.
Remember you are in control of your time and energy,

(02:13):
and finally, embrace the power of now. Dwelling on the
past or worrying about the future robs us of the
present moment. Mindfulness is key focus on being fully present
in each experience, appreciating the little things and savoring every moment.
Think of it like this life is a gift of
wrapping at one delicious moment at the time. Okay, let's

(02:34):
get real for a second. Ever had that day way
you wake up feeling like a superhero ready to conquer
the world. You tackle your emails like a pro, path
through those deadlines with ease, and even manage to squeeze
in a workout before lunch. Sounds pretty awesome, right then
something froze arrention, you plans, a sudden meeting, a last
minute request, or maybe just a flat tire. Suddenly you're

(02:56):
scrambling to catch up, feeling stress and overwhelmed. That's where
the power of mindful time management comes in. By consciously
prioritizing tasks, saying no one needed, and taking breaks to recharge,
we can navigate those curve balls with grace and resilience.
We're not talking about becoming robots who perfectly schedule every
minute of our day. It's about finding a balance that

(03:17):
works for us so we can feel empowered and in control.
Remember those five key takeaways. Recognize the finite nature of time.
Ditch the multi tasking myth schedule you meet time, learn
to say no gracefully, and embrace the power of NA.
By incorporating these principles into our daily lives, we can
transform our relationship with time from one of constant stress

(03:38):
and overwhelm to a source of peace, productivity, and fulfillment. So,
