Listen "Make Space for What Matters Most: Part 1"
Episode Synopsis
What’s truly important, and what can be cut? If you have more to do than you can get done, this is for you.Have you ever seen a values list? They have dozens of appealing words, usually in alphabetical order, lined up and ready for you to circle your favorites as your core values. I haven’t found it to be very helpful in providing clarity or effective in making changes. So, I stopped asking people to circle words and started asking questions instead.The questions are in the episode, and they’re also compiled in a PDF for you to download.I call the process Life Pruning. The point of the questions is to spotlight what’s important to you. The process is designed to deliver insights and aha moments. Because in the busyness of daily life, it’s easy to lose sight of what matters most while getting overwhelmed by distractions. What you keep and what you cut, what you celebrate and what you focus on - it’s entirely up to you. But if you don’t get clear on what those things are, someone else will be happy to direct how you spend your time, money, attention, and energy. The distractions are plentiful and loud, and we’re here to make space for what matters most.Download the PDF, and then all you need is a notebook, pen, and some time to write.Bring your answers back for Part 2 in next week’s episode.Thank you for listening to Depth & Dignity.
