In this monthly Q&A episode, I answer two questions submitted by listeners of the Learn and Work Smarter podcast.

Question one comes from a student. He asks me to weigh in on the most underrated parts of college. (Oof, there are a lot!)

Question two comes from a working professional. She asks for some ways to use her blank (untimed) planner to manage work tasks without using time blocking.

What You Learn:

• Why office hours are one of the most underrated opportunities in college—and how to actually use them
• Hidden campus resources that can change your academic, professional, and mental health trajectory
• How to evaluate whether your current planner setup is helping or hurting your productivity
• A simple method for identifying your top 3 daily tasks (even when everything feels important)
