095 “If it’s not in my diary, it doesn’t happen” Matthew Theijssen [Time Management Success Story]
Description
In this episode of The Time Management Podcast, we meet Matthew Theijssen to discuss the transformative impact of completing a 7-day time audit inspired by Time Management for Entrepreneurs and Professionals. Matthew shares candidly how, after financial and personal setbacks during the pandemic, a renewed focus on time management helped him reclaim control over his work and life.
If you think you don’t have time for a time audit, the irony is that’s exactly why you need to do one and like Matthew get control of your calendar back.
In this episode we talk about:
- How Matthew discovered the importance of time auditing through Abigail’s book
- His step-by-step process of auditing time and transitioning to digital tools
- The mindset shift from reactive to proactive time management
- Lessons learned from batching tasks, avoiding “doom scrolling,” and maximising energy
- Insights on using time audits in professional and personal settings
- A motivational message for anyone feeling too busy to stop and reflect
⏰ It’s your Time!
Matthew Theijssen
Between being a Corporate Consultant and Online business owner, Matthew needs to keep his time in check. Not just for his process-driven mind, but also to ensure he doesn’t drop the ball on either. With huge goals and dreams on the wall, Matthew has to ensure he keeps a keen eye on his diary to be productive, not busy.
