Listen Later

Welcome to the 25th Hour Podcast – where successful business owners talk about the magic of creating a 25th hour every day! We've all been there - your calendar is in great shape. Your to-do list is done. You are in the zone . . . All your balls in the air are being easily juggled. Then....something changes, and suddenly chaos reigns! This podcast will help you learn to up-level your time management strategies so you can get back in control of your day – and make an extra hour, your 25th hour, a reality - every day.

Today’s guest is Kasey Compton. Kasey is on a mission to help business owners find entrepreneurial confidence. She went from bankrupt to Boss Babe when she took her first company from zero to three million in less than three years without ditching her life to do it. She's an entrepreneur who owns four businesses, and as of July 19, 2021, can officially call herself an author.

In this episode, we discuss how overachieving can be detrimental, why prioritizing is crucial, and Kasey shares the three things she focuses on when it comes to making sure she gets the most done every day while still having a life. 

Time Management Strategies for Success:  

  • Prioritizing - “It’s been helpful for me to understand what the most important business needs are and then prioritize my tasks around those things.”
  • Time Blocking - “Time blocking, or time chunking is very helpful - it works really well for me.”
  • Reality - “You just have to know and accept the fact that it doesn’t all have to get done. It just doesn’t, and that’s okay. You just start over next week.”
  • Recess and Library Hours - “Before the pandemic, we had mandatory company recess at the same time every day and everyone can talk to each other. And then we had library hours where we’re not allowed to talk at all.” 

Here’s how Kasey likes to spend her 25th Hour:

  • Listening to the traffic - “I like to stay in the office after everyone leaves, keep the lights off, make a beverage, and just sit there and listen to the traffic. That’s it.”
