Reframe time as a resource rather than a constraint, and build a to-achieve list while reinterpreting the urgent vs important matrix and tweaking the 8020 rule to maximize value.
Pause the video to answer embedded questions and do the mental work to change your time relationship. Journal your answers to boost retention as you progress.
Reframe time as a resource rather than a constraint and learn to invest it to get the most out of it, via the list, finality, matrix, and principle modules.
Explore a different take on time management by reframing tasks as to achieve goals, transforming time from a constraint into a resource, and prioritizing through actionable questions and journaling.
Shift from a to-do list to an to-achieve mindset to improve work-life balance and time with family, reframing tasks around goals and autonomy.
Prioritize a focused to-do list for a product launch to boost market visibility and ensure sales teams have bandwidth, prioritizing high-impact items by bang-for-buck impact.
Link finality with short-term goals by aligning weekly and yearly objectives with KPIs and OKRs, then plan actions that move toward health, happiness, and inner peace.
This module uses a product line manager's example to show how finality, viability, and sustainability guide time management. Frame tasks as business value management to optimize the value chain.
Apply the urgent versus important matrix to manage your time by classifying tasks into distractions, interruptions, crises, and not urgent yet important activities that advance your finality, viability, and sustainability.
Prioritize the urgent and important quadrant to reduce stress and advance health, happiness, and inner peace, reframing distractions as opportunities to grow toward finality.
The module demonstrates using the urgent–important matrix to triage sales requests, shield the team, avoid dependency, and optimize throughput through value chain and business innovation considerations.
Apply the Pareto principle to time management, prioritizing not urgent yet important tasks to achieve most results, while aligning actions with finality and sustainability.

Time is linear, the clock always ticks. And our relationship with it dates from the moment we were born. Now our relationship with Time, especially as managers, has reached a point where we are not satisfied anymore... always need more, running out of it... Yet Time won't change its behavior in the relationship. Therefore it is our perception, use, optimization of it that needs to shift. Shifting life-long perceptions and biases, habits is not an easy task. In this course, we will explore 4 concepts to start and engage in this mental transition, to send you on a transformative journey.
These concepts may challenge how you perceive time, how you perceive your job, your task prioritization. And that is OK. We need to be challenges to grow and change our perceptions and our habits.
In the 4 concepts mentioned above we will challenge the To Do list and migrate that to a To Achieve list, which will shift time from a Constraint to a Resource. We will challenge your perception of your role and function in your organization to support this transition. We will discuss the Important vs Urgent matrix in this new light, and we will put a few twists to the 80-20 rule and its application on Time.
Welcome on the Journey!
