S11 EP16: Maximize Your Life with Time Blocking

Do you feel you are in constant chaos mode? Are you always doing
something but at the end of the day feel like you got nothing
done? Want to know how to get rid of that looming “to do” list in
the back of your mind? In this episode, we give you the scoop on
time blocking, or blocking your day to do specific tasks in
preset time periods. Why do you need this? People dedicate their
lives to figuring out how to be present, only this doesn’t
require a pilgrimage. We’re not talking about a shortcut either.
It’s one more tool for your toolbox that will help you lessen
your mental load. 


If you are tired of feeling guilty about the things you don’t
have time for, or if you are always in reactive mode and have a
never ending to-do list, or if you have trouble focusing on one
task and feel bogged down by menial things, please try time
blocking. If you have a bunch of unfinished projects or call
yourself a procrastinator, this will be a game changer for you!
