Key Takeaways:
- Busyness is not a sign of success. Many leaders wear it as a badge of honor, but in reality, itās a sign of lost control over their time.
- The key shift is moving from reactive to proactive scheduling. Most people spend their days responding to othersā demands rather than designing their time intentionally.
- Time blocking is essentialābut protecting that time is even more critical. Itās not just about scheduling priorities, but making sure those blocks donāt get overtaken by urgent distractions.
- Consistency in small actions leads to long-term impact. Rather than seeking big, drastic changes, focusing on minor daily adjustments creates sustainable progress.
