#527 Taming the Time Thief - with Andrew Hartman
Description
We explore the concept of time as our most precious resource with Andrew Hartman, founder of TimeBoss, who shares a framework for achieving results without overwhelm and burnout.
• Andrew's journey began when work stress caused him to lose his sense of smell for six months
• 77% of knowledge workers experienced burnout in the past year, up from 75% pre-COVID
• The "always on" work culture has eliminated boundaries between professional and personal life
• Most people treat time like credit instead of cash, creating debt for their future selves
• Setting a work hour constraint (Andrew uses 50 hours) forces better prioritization
• Weekly planning meetings help identify the 20% of tasks that yield 80% of results
• Implementing strategic time management can reclaim 4-10 hours per week
• "Comeback time" after interruptions can take up to 23 minutes of productivity
• Creating "commitment plans" and finding "vacation shields" allows for true rest
• Working at your "highest sustainable pace" enables sustained peak performance
