Welcome to My Time Guide.
If you want to improve your time management skills, you’re in the right place.
Do any of these sound familiar?
If you feel stuck, you’re not the only one.
Many people struggle with overwhelm. The good news is that you don't have to be one of those people.
Because there's a solution that's simple, accessible, and achievable.
There's light at the end of the tunnel.
But before you can see the light, you have to take the blinders off…
Poor time management can always be traced back to one of two main causes:
These are deep-rooted problems that isn't addressed in the dozens of listicles that tell you how to be more productive. Creating real, sustainable change with lasting results doesn't come from more productivity "hacks."
To significantly improve your time management, you don't need more productivity "hacks." You need to develop a mindset and skillset that puts you back in the driver seat of your life.
This is really the only way to create real, sustainable change with lasting results.
With a winning mindset, you’re thoroughly prepared to take on whatever comes your way. Your priorities are clear, focus comes naturally, and stress is a thing of the past.
With a powerful skillset, you gain confidence in your abilities to get things done quickly and effectively. Doubt is replaced with confidence and decisive action leads you fearlessly towards your goals.
But...
Let's make one thing very clear: there’s no one-size-fits-all solution.
There’s no golden ticket or secret shortcut that will get you from burnout to badass overnight...
Time management is a skill.
And like any other skill, improvement requires knowledge and practice.
That’s exactly what MTG is all about: developing useful tools, as well as a plan in which you can apply those tools in your everyday life.
You can use a cookbook a few different ways:
Some cookbooks only provide the recipes. But the best ones do more than that...
The best ones actually teach you how to cook.
Not only do they provide the recipes but they also discuss all the different kitchen tools, methods of cooking, various knife techniques, and use the appropriate terminology (like mise en place).
Recipes are great, but recipes alone won't make you a better cook.
If you don't know the basics, you end up wasting a lot of time and energy on things that don't matter. You play never-ending games of trial and error. And you put yourself at risk of physical, mental, and emotional damage.
After all, if you don't know the proper way to chop a vegetable, it's only a matter of time before you cut your finger.
Long-term success in productivity stems from a solid foundation, like the roots of a tree.
