Finding Brave 238: Anti-Time Management: The Power of Time-Tipping To Achieve Your Goals, with Richie Norton
Thank you for listening to our Finding Brave show, ranked in the Top 100 Apple Career Podcasts!
“Instead of working and giving my life and my family the breadcrumbs of time, why don’t I turn it over? My family, my time, whatever it is that is important to you. It could be work or whatever you actually love. If you do that, here’s what happens: you think you won’t have time to do the things that actually have to get done to work and get paid. Not true. You actually [get more] creative in getting those things done in less time.” — Richie Norton
Are you looking to find your motivation, prioritize your ideals, and create a flexible work-life lifestyle that allows you to enjoy expansive freedom? Today’s Finding Brave guest believes that you can do all of the above, no matter how busy or successful you are, using what he calls Anti-Time Management!
Today, you’ll learn about the power of Time Tipping from award-winning author and serial entrepreneur, Richie Norton. As an executive coach to CEOs, Richie has been featured in Forbes, Bloomberg Businessweek, Inc., Entrepreneur, and the Huffington Post. Pacific Business News recognized Richie as one of the Top Forty Under 40 ‘Best and Brightest Young Businessmen’ in Hawaii, and he is considered one of the world’s leading thinkers and is included in Marshall Goldsmith’s Top 100 coaches community.
He is also the CEO and Cofounder of PROUDUCT, an INC. 5000 company and a global entrepreneurship solution that helps businesses go from idea to market with full-service sourcing, product strategy, and end-to-end supply chain, and the author of several books, including Anti-Time Management, The Power of Starting Something Stupid, and Résumés Are Dead and What to Do About It.
Richie and I go back nine years to when I wrote about his second great book, The Power of Starting Something Stupid, for my Forbes blog in 2013. In today’s episode, he shares some of the valuable frameworks from his latest book, Anti-Time Management, and how you can implement them to stop managing your time and start prioritizing your attention. For poignant and practical advice from someone who has learned the value of living in a way that helps him lean into his fears, make a difference, and live without regret (and wants to help you do the same), make sure not to miss this powerful conversation with Richie Norton!

Ready to Take Your Professional Life and Leadership to the Next Level? Become The Most Powerful You!
In reading a great deal about leadership today, and interviewing top leadership experts, I’m recognizing a disappointing trend - that the general concept and understanding of leadership has become so vague and watered down that most of it isn’t helpful at all, and it’s not suited to a majority of women who want to lead differently. The Most Powerful You training goes deeper. It helps you recognize and understand more about yourself as a person and the leader you want to be, then take empowering, transformative actions to operate in your role in a way that takes your leadership and your career higher, making the impact you dream to. If you truly want to help your team, staff and organization become “The Most Powerful We,” this is the right training for you.
