44. Death By 1,000 Cuts: How You Waste Time

The Sam Ovens Podcast

Tired of moving slowly and getting pulled in 100 directions? Tired of projects lying in limbo and not completing anything? Chances are, you've suffered "death by 1,000 cuts". It's the little things that waste our time and suck our energy dry. Its the "got a minute", "quick check" or "just this once" that sneak up on you and suffocate you. The worst part is that you never see it coming because it disguises itself as a tiny task and we're standing guard for big tasks. If you want to get anything meaningful done, you've got to become a ruthless defender of your time. You've got to stand guard 24/7.

In this podcast, I explain to you how to heal the 1,000 lacerations and get back to optimal efficiency as quickly as possible.
