INSIGHT

Time Scarcity Is The Real Problem

  • The core problem is not discipline or organisation but believing you must do everything you think needs doing.
  • Accepting limited time reframes how you plan and reduces pressure to overcommit.
ADVICE

Plan By Objectives Not Tasks

  • Plan weekly around objectives rather than fixed tasks to allow flexibility amid change.
  • Setting an objective like "do some work on the project" lets you still win even if specifics shift.
ADVICE

Use Your First 30 Minutes Strategically

  • Reserve the first 30 minutes of your workday to scan messages and confirm your plan.
  • Use that hour to reassign freed time to high-value work when schedules change unexpectedly.
