TGL018: Time Management, Productivity & Happiness with David Finkel

On today’s show, I talk with David Finkel, time management and productivity expert, and author of the book, The Freedom Formula: How to Succeed in Business without Sacrificing Your Family, Health, or Life. 

We’re all searching for ways to get more productive, get smarter about how we spend our time, and avoid burnout. I don’t know about you, but ironically, I feel busier than ever during this COVID-19 lockdown, and I’m searching for ways to get smarter about how I spend my time. In this episode, you’ll get practical advice on how to get more out of your day and become a better investor, leader, spouse, parent, and friend. 

IN THIS EPISODE, YOU'LL LEARN:

• It’s not about how much time we spend on work, it’s about how we spend our time
• How to structure our day more like Warren Buffett
• The difference between the “Time & Effort Economy” and the “Value Economy”
