33. The Hidden Secret of Time Management: Reclaiming Your Creativity

Hey there Beauty Hunter!
Ever wondered why it feels like time just slips through your fingers? Or why your dreams of creating that masterpiece seem to gather dust on the shelf? Well, grab your favorite mug and settle in, because today we're going to show you how to reclaim your time and ignite your creative spark. Trust me, you don't want to miss this!
Jonathan's Journey: Jonathan opens up the episode by sharing his journey of moving from the familiar comforts of everyday living and the mundane life to the transformation that had to happen for HandsOnFire to come into existence. This shift realigned our lives with our passions and values.
Michelle’s Time Management Secrets: Now, here’s where it gets juicy. Michelle walks you through the process to make sure your time serves your values and those sneaky old habits don’t sabotage your efforts. Here’s the rundown:
Set Quarterly Goals: Before each quarter, evaluate and set 1-2 goals that act as your guiding compass. 
Weekly Planning: Every Sunday, do a brain dump of all tasks and appointments for the week. Then, assign each task a level of priority from 1 to 10, based on how they align with your goals and values. Starting with the 1s (top priority), plug them into my calendar.
Cut the Fluff: After scheduling the top priorities, assess if you can fit in lower-priority tasks (6-10 on your list) without overwhelming yourself. If dishes are a low priority, maybe it's a paper plate week!
Identify Time Suckers: Notice where distractions arise and determine if they align with your values. If not, it's easier to walk away, just like Jonathan did with his job.
Re-evaluating and prioritizing your time can create real transformation in your life. It’s all about making intentional choices that serve your passions and values.
