Episode notes

One's calendar reflects their true priorities more than their words. By examining a person's calendar, their actual focus and commitments become evident. This test prompts individuals to evaluate if their actions align with their stated priorities. A clear calendar with distinct priorities leads to successful outcomes. The clarity and specificity of one's chosen priorities are crucial for achievement, as the effort to make life changes requires conscious and consistent actions.
