59: Revolutionize Your Schedule with Time Blocking

Do you start your day with a plan, or just kind of wing it? If you’re looking to give your schedule a tactical makeover, may we introduce . . . time blocking! This week, Emily’s telling you all about this productivity secret weapon and how it can give a little structure to even the craziest days. Sometimes getting more done (and a little peace of mind along the way!) is as simple as looking at your To-Do list and figuring out when you can make it happen—and if you can’t, maybe it’s time to give yourself a bit of grace and a little bit of margin. And don’t forget: the measure of success isn’t what you do. It’s being the kind and courageous friend, partner, sister, daughter, and teammate you already are.    PS: Don’t forget to check out all the brand-new, beautiful spring Simplified products that just launched over at emilyley.com!   * * * Thanks to our episode sponsors!   BETTERHELP | Affordable, private online therapy — anytime, anywhere.
