Our habits shape our entire lives. From waking up early, to drinking your coffee on the way to work, to reading the kids a bedtime story, habits are the nearly invisible building blocks of our lives. 

And because they shape our lives, they will most certainly shape how we manage our time, too. 

So how can you build the best time management habits you possibly can? And how do you make those habits stick around? That’s what I’m talking about in this episode. 

Warning: It’s not a quick tip, simple trick, or fast hack list! But the work? It’s SO worth it! Shownotes for Episode 185

We can talk all we want about daily habits, weekly routines, and monthly goals. But life gets busy — and time flies. So this episode is all about doing a mid-year check-in on your goals and plans for the year. Think of it like your half year half-time report! 

This check-in is about so much more than seeing how your goals are coming along. It’s about making sure your values AND your goals still align together to help you live a HEART filled life. 

Not sure how to measure that type of change or progress? Feeling totally discouraged because you haven’t made as much progress as you hoped? Tune in my friends, because that’s exactly what this episode is all about! (And don’t worry; if you’re listening at a different time of year, you can use this to check in on your progress.)
