Let’s cut the bullsh*t—if you’re constantly feeling behind, overwhelmed, or like there’s never enough time, it’s not because you need to “work harder.” It’s because your schedule is setting you up to fail.

Be real with yourself: Does your calendar actually reflect your real life? Or is it just a chaotic disaster of back-to-back meetings, overcommitted deadlines, and zero time for the things that actually matter? Are you scheduling CEO time like monthly money check-ins, quarterly planning, and big-picture strategy, or are you stuck in a never-ending loop of admin work and putting out fires?

Your schedule is either working for you or it’s f*cking you over. If it’s the latter, it’s time to flip the script.

Here’s the move: Mark your calendar for what actually matters. Block out everything—personal time, meals, workouts, deep work, CEO-level sh*t. Set non-negotiable time to review your numbers and track your KPIs. Dedicate space for big, strategic projects that move your business forward instead of keeping you trapped in busy work. Then? Stick to it. Use Do Not Disturb. Honor your commitments like your business depends on it—because it does.

If your schedule isn’t working, fix it. Adjust. Tweak. But stop running yourself into the ground with a system that was broken from the start.

So here’s your challenge: Block time for one thing that actually moves the needle this week—and DM me what it is. No more excuses. Let’s make sh*t happen. Thank you for being a part of the Get Shit Done Rebelution. Show your love and leave a 5-star review on iTunes to help me grow this podcast!
