Episode notes
Balance Is Defined By Your Outcome
- Balance depends on your goal and is not a universal rule everyone should follow.
- The bigger the life you want, the less everyday balance you will have.
Prioritize Effectiveness Over Busyness
- Use productivity systems to be effective, not just busy; Andy recommends the Power List to prioritize important tasks.
- Being effective creates more free time while being merely busy reduces it.

- Think in macro timeframes: pay the price now for more balance later over decades, not just days.
- Accept temporary intensity to secure future freedom and family time.
