Time Arbitrage: Buying Back an Extra Workday with AI


Listen Later

High-agency professionals don’t just work harder—they rearrange reality so their time buys more outcome per hour. This episode introduces a practical model for “time arbitrage”: using AI to convert low-leverage minutes into high-leverage impact, without adding more hours. Instead of vague productivity tips, you’ll get a simple three-layer lens—Eliminate, Compress, Elevate—to redesign your workweek. We’ll walk through how to spot hidden time arbitrage opportunities in your inbox, recurring meetings, and decision workflows, then show where AI actually fits: drafting, summarizing, scenario-mapping, and systematizing repeat work. You’ll learn how to define a personal “$/hour floor” for tasks, route everything below that line through AI or automation, and prevent tool sprawl from eroding your gains. The goal isn’t an aesthetic calendar; it’s reclaiming one day’s worth of attention each week for strategy, relationships, or deep builds. Clarity is leverage—this is how you buy more of it on purpose.
