In this episode, Mark and Nick chat about time management strategies to help you reclaim control of your day. We'll explore Stephen Covey's time management matrix, often considered a complex system, and then unpack Dan Martell's concept of "highest and best use of your time" alongside the idea of "genius time." We'll navigate the four time zones: competence, incompetence, excellence, and genius, to understand where you're spending your energy. The episode will also cover techniques like time auditing, identifying energy-draining tasks, and tackling the unenjoyable ones.
