Episode 3499:

Michael Mehlberg lays out three distinct planning methods to help you take control of your time and boost productivity. Whether you thrive on a fully scheduled calendar or prefer a looser approach, these strategies ensure you focus on what truly matters while making time for work, rest, and personal growth. Commit to 30 days of daily planning, and you’ll not only achieve more but also navigate unexpected challenges with confidence.

Read along with the original article(s) here: https://michaelmehlberg.com/blog/2019/2/28/30-days-of-daily-planning-for-a-better-life

Quotes to ponder:

"Instead of working relentlessly without time to think, rest, and recharge, you will plan for adequate time to work AND take breaks. This, by the way, is scientifically shown to boost productivity and focus during working hours."

"Ask yourself, if you could get three things done tomorrow (and only three things), what would they be? Write those three things down."

"What you'll find after 30 days of this single exercise is a path to your goals, a stepping stone to your vision, and a means to live your purpose."
