[13:38] - Why time management is the problem, not the solution

[16:11] - ROI versus ROTI

[21:04] - The importance of Selah pauses and the value of time with God

[25:00] - The practice of time anchoring; the balance of pouring out and taking in

[44:29] - Prayer/thank you to Lissa

[45:24] - Outro/What’s coming up next

Key takeaways:

Lissa relates to being a busy-ness owner, having shifted away from always cramming her calendar after her doctor helped her see how her anxiety around time management was influencing her body and health.
Busy-ness is a tool of Satan because it keeps us distracted from all the good work we might do for God. It prevents people from seeing who we really are, as it can become a superficial mask that hinders real connection.
Time management is not a solution — it’s the problem. Time management is based on the need to control and maintain, which means it’s not focused on growth. Instead, it’s based in a feeling of lack or fear.
ROTI — return on time invested — is a spin on the traditional idea of financial ROI (return on investment). It helps people to focus on whether they are getting a good return from the time they are investing, keeping them aware of how they are stewarding their 24 hours. ROTI can include assets, but it also can include intangibles oriented around the fruit of the Spirit.
Lissa names four “shuns” that get in the way of good time stewarding — expectations, obligations, interruptions, and distractions. She asserts that we CAN pivot away from activities that do not have a good ROTI, just as we pivot away from financial investments that aren’t producing a good yield.
Selah pauses are intentional breaks we can put into our schedule or day to refresh ourselves, reflect, and spend time with God. They help us to both take in what we need and pour out to others, which connects to Lissa’s larger concept of time anchoring.
When we multiply time and get good ROTI, others tend to notice. Our ROTI becomes a testimony that opens the door to sharing Jesus.
2 Corinthians 9:8 reminds us that God is our multiplier and supplier.
Lissa’s podcast (Productive and Profitable CEO) and planner are both good resources for those looking to steward time well and get better ROTI.
