The Danger of Busyness with Diane Rolston (DW330)
Manage episode 506712187 series 2521408
September can feel like a fresh start, but that is until your calendar is jammed and your energy is drained.
In this episode, you'll discover the dangers of sliding into busyness so that you don't fall victim to the trap of overloading your schedule.
Our host, Diane Rolston, discusses why having a busy calendar does not equal your worth and how to create true success through intentional choices rather than constant activity.
Listen to learn these key takeaways:
- Why busyness has become a false status symbol
- The difference between being busy and being productive, and how productivity doesn't always equal progress if you're not working on the right things
- The three main reasons people over-commit
- The real costs of staying too busy
- The benefits of slowing down
- How to audit your calendar by identifying three things that don't directly serve your goals and releasing at least one of them
- Diane's strategy of blocking time for what matters most (like CEO time, gym time, and creative projects) before letting other commitments fill your schedule
- Why true growth and happiness come from clarity about what you want, boundaries around your time and energy, and aligned action rather than a packed schedule
