Time Management vs. Self-Mastery | How to get yourself to take action and live better

Today's video is a conversation on how you shift from managing your life through the concept of time into the concept of self-mastery. I think self-mastery is an under utilized concept in productivity, but it can often be the most powerful factor in changing our thoughts, feeling sand actions. If you are struggling to complete the to-do list and create a life you are actually pleased with, let this conversation with the icebreaker to a new way of thinking about how you manage your life.

Hi, my name is Alexis but I’m also known as @MissTrenchcoat all across the internet. I’m an online entrepreneur who helps ambitious women plan for a balanced, successful life and business! I design productivity tools, classes and courses based on the latest productivity science and research. Welcome to my KZbin channel where I make regular videos on the topics of productivity, planning and online business to help you get all your big thoughts, plans, dreams and ideas out of your head and onto paper so you can get down to business creating your dream life! I teach a unique approach to productivity that focuses less on the daily grind and more on gaining clarity on your priorities and goals. To me, the answer to upleveling your productivity isn't hustle, hustle hustle! The answer I have found is to get your mind clear on what you want to achieve, and then creating a simple, streamlined strategy to help you make it happen. From experience I have found, if you get your head in the right place and then plan better, you will end up having to take less action which saves so much time, energy and stress! I welcome you to join me with an open mind and a notebook, because if you are ready to learn a better path to productivity, I have a lot to teach you!

Sooo much of this resonated!😄 I for one am definitely more productive if I'm starting my day from a happy place, doing the things I want to do. It actually makes the things i DON'T want to do, easier and faster to complete. Also, completely agree about doing the thing versus getting the thing done - and cooking is always the example i use! I love to eat. I don't like to cook. I'm perfectly happy to pay someone to operate in their genius and make me a delicious meal, as opposed to me figuring out a)what i want to eat and b)what i feel like making...assuming i even have the ingredients (which, if i don't, creates another errand - grocery shopping!).

Very interesting take on how to structure the day. It's the opposite of "Eat The Frog"

[@PatriciaMuirMaestroQ]

Love the concept of setting up positive energy by performing a task that I enjoy first. I never did agree with the “ eat the frog first” concept. I also agree with making life and work easier. This is THE LIFE HACK. It’s about energy management. Not time management.

@Alexis aka MissTrenchcoat Love the way you created two buckets - we like to do bucket and we don't like to do bucket. I dread scheduling because invariably it stress me out. Maybe if I adopt the outcome focused approach it might help. Will try it btw I have tried reaching out to you via email. f email is not your preferred mode of communication, please let me know your preferred means of contact.

Great video & concepts. My problem is once I start what I love (scrapbooking) I don’t stop😬. I could set a timer & will try that. I do look at your coffee example differently. And I have the same issue with iced tea. I look at going downstairs to make tea (1 drink at least a gallon a day!) as “getting my steps in”! I walk at least 10K steps a day & my back doctor wants me to change positions every 15 minutes. I’m betting a lot of people would benefit from this. I get losing your work flow so your mindset would have to shift to walking as time well spent exercising. Then one might have to work on their self discipline to get back to work and into your flow. I guess it’s just whatever works for each person. I’m pretty self disciplined.
