Listen "Time Management is Pain Management"
Episode Synopsis
Have you ever told yourself that “you just don’t have enough time?”
In this week’s episode of The Manager Track podcast, we’re going to talk about why time management is actually a lot more about pain management than task management.
I made this episode to help you:
Build awareness on how you spend your time and what you focus on
Own your decisions and make changes that align with your priorities
Follow through and execute on your decisions, even though doing so might feel uncomfortable.
A good number of my clients work on these topics and it's amazing to see what they can do when they get intentional with their time management! I hope you can apply these to your (work)life and truly take ownership of your decisions around how you spend your time!
