Inside Job

161: Where Does The Time Go


Listen Later

What's wrong with me?

Why do I always do this?

Why can't I get done what I need to get done?

How do I regain all the time I've lost?

A lot of us have good ideas and tools for how we can use our time more productively, and yet we often find ourselves wringing our hands in despair and questioning ourselves and where our time has gone.

There's such a sense of guilt and shame that comes from not being as productive with our time as we think we should be. The problem is that guilt and shame do nothing to help accomplish the things we set out to accomplish.

So, instead, we're focusing today on how to evaluate what's stopping you from being as productive with your time as you want to be and the strategies that will help you regain your time… and, in Nayla's case, maybe even a little sleep in the process.
