Ep. 82 - A Better Way to Think About Summer Writing Goals

Send us a textIn this re-released episode, I explore a radically different way to think about time and procrastination—one that offers more freedom, not less. Inspired by Oliver Burkeman’s book Four Thousand Weeks: Time Management for Mortals, this episode dives into why most time management advice fails us, and what to do instead.You’ll learn how to “procrastinate better” by focusing on what truly matters, how to avoid falling into the Planning Fallacy trap, and why saying “no” to good opportunities might be the key to real progress. Whether you’re heading into summer with big writing goals or just trying to get through your to-do list without burning out, this episode offers thoughtful, practical strategies to help you do less—and accomplish more.Support the showCheck out Leslie's website at www.YourWordsUnleashed.com!The three ways Leslie can help you with coaching & developmental editing:#1: Six-month Your Words Unleashed signature book writing coaching program.
