Deep Questions with Cal Newport
Balancing Professional and Personal Time Blocking
When implementing time blocking for both personal and professional life, it is advisable to avoid fully time blocking your personal life to prevent burnout. Time blocking, though effective, is artificial and can lead to exhaustion if too strictly applied to all aspects of life. While it helps manage workload and tasks, it is crucial to maintain a balance by keeping personal time blocks lighter and more flexible.
