Jobs provide security.

They also take up a lot of our time.

A consistent paycheck costs us at least 40 hours of our week.

Look.

The average life is around 4,000 weeks long.

4,000 weeks.

I turn 31 today.

31 years is 1,612 weeks.

I’m more than 1/4th through.

How far along are you?

Life is short.

How do we use our limited time to balance work and life?

Common solutions include,

-Get a day planner.

-Schedule your week.

-Download a productivity app.

-Stick to a rigid schedule.

But.

We have enough on our plate already.

Adding a day planner or a weekly schedule is just more work.

A productivity app has to be managed or else its useless.

These common solutions only work for us if we work for them.

My solution is a little different.

I just have a vision.

Get clear on the life you want.

Very clear.

Use your vision as a filter:

Does this take me closer to or farther from my vision?

If it moves you closer.

Keep it.

If it moves you farther.

Cut it.

Once you clarify your vision, it goes to work for you.

That’s it for today.
