On today's show I interview Peter Mockaitis who I met at Podcast Movement (who I really liked) because of he’s super fun personality, is super relaxed and he knows a LOT. You can usually catch him working with CEO’s on strategy and helping them organize their teams, he talks a lot about critical thinking and collaborative training a lot of the stuff that I’m more and more interested in all the time. So that is why today’s episode is titled “How to be awesome with your time!”

We are going to talk about scheduling, meetings, priorities, and a bunch more. You can find out more about Peat at Awesome at your Job and his podcast “How to be awesome at your job”
