I had so much fun talking with Matthew Lesko! He's encouraging people to apply for grants to fund big ticket upgrades, updates, etc. He says "the money's there; YOU might as well have it!"He worked for 50 years for the wealthy, finding them more money, but now is helping the underdog to get ahead, because he can. He says it doesn't pay him a lot, but he actually feels good about his work now.Matthew is a trip! He has more energy than 5 people - he hosts almost daily a live chat with up to 15,000 people looking for ways to find funding for projects and life. He sometimes doesn't sound very serious, but then he inserts a phrase like "it makes you human, and it's hard to flunk a human; it's easy to flunk a robot." I'm so happy to have found him so he can share his tips with you!

These days when it comes to plumbing repair, I get apprehensive. I wonder what else will break or leak if I try to fix this problem. I second guess myself. What if I break something beyond what I have the tools to repair?

Send us a textJoin us as we wrap up 2024 with community leader and food sovereignty advocate Sara Continenza. Sara is the founder and executive director of Food Strong, a non-profit connecting kids with food since 2016. Sara and her staff work with the Cleveland Municipal School District and other inner-city schools to provide hands-on learning experiences in gardening, nutrition, and entrepreneurship. Recently, Food Strong's mission to educate, empower, and cultivate health through fresh foods just got a significant boost. Community Greenhouse Partners recently gifted them a three-acre farm site on Superior Avenue in Cleveland's east side. The property includes a historic house, church, food forest, farmland, and hoop houses that Food Strong is transforming into its Superior Farm. This neighborhood hub will support food sovereignty, climate resistance, and community connections. An estimated $5 million is needed to realize her vision for the property, along with the help of thousands of volunteers and neighbors. This extraordinary project is urban restoration at its best, feeding bodies, minds, and souls. Join us as we speak with Sara about this project, the wisdom of kids, Food Strong's work, and ways you can help. Our Guest:Sara Continenza, Founder and Executive Director of Food StrongLearn More:About Food StrongAbout The Superior Farm Fix-Up ProjectDonate to Food Strong's Farm ProjectBecome a SupporterVolunteer EveningsFood Strong's ProgramsFollow Food Strong on Facebook and InstagramFollow us: https://www.facebook.com/ecospeaksclehttps://www.instagram.com/ecospeakscleContact us:hello@ecospeakscle.com

Dear Spinning Circle,Welcome back to another Radio episode! This month, Rebecca sat Rachel down to quiz her about working through longer projects. It came from a discussion back in August at Knit City Calgary 2024. For context, let's set the table: Back in 2019, you were struggling with the idea of how to justify the time and effort to put into a really big spinning project to weave an heirloom piece. Do you remember that feeling? What is the Biggest Project you've ever completed? How long did it take? How did you feel about it at the end vs. the beginning? How did it change things for you?Gentle Morning by Trin-Annelie hereCheviot 3-ply handspun for Gentle Mornning here (1000 yards / 355 grams)Rideau-Arcott/Charollais 4-ply handspun here (1600 yards / 550 grams)What kind of big project dreams do you have right now? What, for you, is the motivation behind them? Aside from the obvious limitations of hours in the day (which is huge and should be acknowledged), do you feel like anything else is holding you back from trying one? How do we give ourselves permission to pursue projects like this?Compare big projects - like spinning to weave for a coat, etc. -  a sampling-heavy or    learning-heavy big project, like Year of Yarn, Year of Colour (available for purchase), or a Certificate program. How is the process different? How are they easier or harder to justify? How does each one change you as a maker?A can-of-worms question: do you think of these pieces as “art”? Would doing so change their perceived value?How do you manage longer spins, especially those that are colour monotonous? How do you plan for these larger projects? Please share below!Please take a moment to like & share the podcast, leave a review & share with others! For more, head to Patreon here.Thank you for tuning in!Rachel & Rebecca

Hi Guys! Welcome to the show! In today's episode, I'm sharing how syncing your tasks with your natural 28-day cycle can make decluttering (and life) a whole lot easier. Now, let's talk about syncing your tasks with your 28-day cycle, based on the book "In the Flow" by Alisa Vitti. Here's a quick overview of the four phases of your cycle and how to use them to get more done: 1. Follicular Phase: Great time for planning and starting projects. 2. Ovulatory Phase: Ideal for physical tasks, like decluttering. 3. Luteal Phase: Focus on wrapping up and handling details. 4. Menstrual Phase: Perfect for rest, reflection, and journaling. By aligning your tasks with your natural energy, you'll reduce stress, feel more productive, and get more done. It's all about working *with* your body's rhythms instead of against them.

Join Us for Tips/Tech Tuesday! Today, Heather Masters emphasizes the importance of clear objectives and thorough planning when investing in technology or making significant life decisions. Many people rush into purchasing software or making choices without fully understanding their specific needs and desires, which can lead to disappointment. Using relatable analogies, Heather illustrates how critical it is to identify both what you want and what you don't want, whether it's for a holiday, a home purchase, or a software solution. She encourages listeners to gather requirements from all stakeholders, ensuring that everyone's values and expectations are considered for a successful outcome. Tune in to discover practical strategies for aligning your goals and making informed decisions that lead to greater satisfaction.About this EpisodeThe essence of strategic planning is brought to life in this insightful podcast episode hosted by Heather Masters. She adeptly navigates the intricacies of decision-making, particularly in the realm of technology investments, and draws compelling parallels to everyday life events. Heather opens the conversation by candidly discussing her experiences with clients who have rushed into software purchases without taking the time to articulate their specific needs, resulting in frustration and unmet expectations. This serves as a springboard for a broader discussion about the importance of clarity and preparation in achieving desired outcomes in both business and personal matters.Heather's storytelling approach invites listeners to reflect on their own planning processes. She beautifully illustrates how significant life decisions—such as buying a house, planning a holiday, or even moving to a new city—often lack the detailed preparation they deserve. By encouraging her audience to define their objectives and gather input from all involved parties, she highlights the value of collaboration and shared vision. The episode is peppered with practical advice, including the creation of visual roadmaps and checklists, making the planning process not only efficient but also engaging.

Here's another all-star episode that I love so much and wanted to share with you today. As we round out this month's theme of “self-discipline” I think this topic is the perfect one to help us bring it all home.  Today, we are talking all about how to finish that next big project… no, really. Done, finished, tick it off the list, stick a fork in it, and be DONE. But the problem is… most projects we start, we never finish them! Why is that??! My special guest today is author Bridgit Dengel Gaspard and she's simplifying how to finish that next big project. You see, she's got a theory that  the reason we mysteriously stop within sight of the finish line is actually because not all parts of you want what you think you want. In fact, these sub-personalities inside you have a distorted loyalty to your core negative beliefs and that's what is keeping you stuck.  Here's how to squash all of that. My special guest today is Bridgit Dengel Gaspard and she's simplifying how to finish that next big project. Why driven, go-getter, type-A kind of people tend to lose steam just before completing a big goal in their life  What the “Final 8th” is and how to overcome any self-sabotage when you're working towards your goals personally or professionally How to speak to your inner selves for clarity and insight through a technique called voice dialogue Why it's just as important to uncover our “core negative beliefs” as well as your core values to get at the root of things … and ultimately, what the key difference is between a person who achieves their goals easily vs. those who don't. If you've ever bought a book or an online course you haven't finished… invested in a mastermind and then fizzled out halfway through… or started a DIY project and left it to collect dust, my friend, this episode (that originally aired in September 2020) is especially for you. You have the power to create the life you really want to live, if only you simply remembered what's possible… and make Bold Asks for what you need, want, and desire. Today is a fresh start and a new beginning. You can do it, I believe in you… it's time to simplify! Q: Are you trying to figure out why you sometimes can't seem to finish that next big project? If yes, this one is for you. It's time to #DoTheThing  ---- Show notes available with all links mentioned here: https://www.thesimplifiers.com/posts/358-how-to-finish-that-next-big-project---with-bridgit-dengel-gaspard-all-star

We've all had that project that made us both excited and terrified. Maybe it was the first time your manager asked you to tackle something you'd never tackled before. Maybe it was a stretch goal to prove you were ready for that promotion. In any case, when you're named the lead on a high-effort, high-impact, high-visibility project, what can you do to give yourself the highest odds of success without totally burning yourself out?In this episode, Jess walks you through what she does to pull off big projects with confidence. Controlling what you can control so you can deal with what you can't The power of documentation and socialization Getting comfortable moving forward without permission and 100% of the necessary information How to seek support when you're stuck, and why you shouldn't be afraid to “raise the red flag.”

Ever feel like you have a huge project looming, but you just don't know where to start? Whether launching a big presentation, tackling a software implementation, or planning an event, the key to making progress often lies in breaking it down into bite-sized, manageable steps. But let's be honest — while the advice to “just […]

Three years ago, I began a journey that came to an end last Saturday. Today, I want to share that journey with you, what I learned and how my journey can help you become better at managing your time and ultimately be more productive.  You can subscribe to this podcast on: Podbean | Apple Podcasts | Stitcher | Spotify | TUNEIN Links: Email Me | Twitter | Facebook | Website | Linkedin   Get Your Copy Of Your Time, Your Way: Time Well Managed, Life Well Lived   Take The NEW COD Course The Working With… Weekly Newsletter Carl Pullein Learning Centre Carl's YouTube Channel Carl Pullein Coaching Programmes The Working With… Podcast Previous episodes page Script | 327 Hello, and welcome to episode 327 of the Working With Podcast. A podcast to answer all your questions about productivity, time management, self-development and goal planning. My name is Carl Pullein, and I am your host of this show. My book, Your Time, Your Way, Time Well Managed! Life Well Lived!, was published last Saturday. It is the end result of a three-year journey that began with the idea of putting everything I have learned about better managing time together so you have enough time to spend with your loved ones, enjoy the hobbies you have always wanted to participate in, and so much more without feeling drained, overwhelmed, and rushed.  The book is a manual for taking control of your time and making the things you want to do happen without stress or overwhelm. It gives you a complete roadmap for making time work for you instead of working against you. But more on the contents later. From a productivity perspective, when you begin a project like writing a book, there is one critical starting point: getting started. What often happens, and is the reason so few people do any of their personal projects or achieve goals, is that too much time is wasted in the thinking and planning stage.  There's a comfort in dreaming and thinking about landscaping your garden (backyard). That dreaming can be very seductive. It allows you to believe you are doing something about your project—‘I'm doing the planning'—yet nothing is happening. Your garden is not getting landscaped.  This book was two years in the planning stage (I am not immune to being seduced by the dream). I was even telling people, “I'm currently writing a book.” That was a lie. I wasn't “writing” anything. I was dreaming of writing a book. I was stuck in the planning stage.  To get yourself out of that delusion—as that is what too much planning is, a delusion—you need to start doing something. Every project has a beginning. That could be visiting the local hardware store to purchase the tools you will need or, in my case, when writing a book, to write the introduction (this gives me a mini-outline of what I want to write about). Do that first step.  The next critical part of any project, whether professional or personal, is to decide how much time you are willing to give it each week. You are unlikely to be able to estimate how long a big project will take accurately. There are too many unknowns, and if you involve other people, there will inevitably be delays.  The only thing you have control over is your time. You don't control other people's time—even if you are a boss. So, how much time are you willing to or are able to give to the project each week? Once you know how much time you are giving the project each week, schedule it.  Personal projects can be worked on in the evening and at weekends, while professional ones can be done during work hours.  One thing you will eventually learn about time management is hoping you will find the time to do something is not a good strategy. It never works. If you want time to work on something, anything, you need to protect the time. Whether that is going out for a family walk in the evenings, washing your car or writing a letter to your aunt in New Zealand.  Time management works when you are intentional about it. In other words, you must protect time for the things you want to do.  When the early version of Your Time, Your Way went out to a select group of readers, many commented that it took over fifty pages to get to talking about time. That was intentional.  Too often, books on productivity and time management are about showing you how to squeeze in more and more. That is not the purpose of this book. Not only is that approach unsustainable, it's also unhealthy. Instead, my approach is to encourage you to start by thinking about your life as a whole. What do you want out of your life? What is important to you? While we share eight areas—family and relationships, career/business, finances, health and fitness, self-development, lifestyle and life experiences, spirituality, and life's purpose—how we define these are different for each of us. That means what we want out of these areas will also be different.  The order of priority is also different. As we go through life, the priority of these will change. When you are young, career/business and perhaps lifestyle and life experiences will be high on your list. As you age, health and finances may creep up towards the top. Again, we will all be different here.  Knowing what is important to you is the foundation of a well-lived life. It also shows you how to best use your limited resource of time so you spend more of it doing the things you want to do.  It was very tempting to begin the book with lists of tips and tricks for managing time, but I knew that would not help you in the long term. It's a quick-fix approach that quickly leads to slipping back into old habits.  When you begin by identifying what is important to you, you give yourself a self-generating motive for getting out of bed with enthusiasm, and it naturally gives you a purpose each day. You are spending a large portion of your day on the things you know are important to you. But more than that, knowing your areas of focus and what they mean to you gives you clarity that helps you make decisions. If you have identified your family and friends as being important to you and you work in a company that expects you to work late and at weekends, you may wish to consider looking for an alternative job. That could mean you need to change companies or perhaps your career.  Not identifying what is important to you will likely leave you stuck in a job or career that leaves you feeling deflated, unhappy and trapped. Showing you how to do more in less time is not going to help you in that situation. All it will do is leave you feeling more unhappy, trapped and lost.  Your Time, Your Way takes you through the key time management techniques of COD (Collect, Organise and Do) and the Time Sector System. It explains how to choose the right UCT (Universal Collection Tool) for you and how to plan your week and day using the Planning Matrix.  Yet, more than that, it also shows you how to develop a morning routine that will set you up for the day and give you some time for yourself—something often lost when we begin a career and a family and are trying to juggle getting kids ready for school, with ensuring you have saved the presentation file you need today to your OneDrive account.  I've also included a chapter on managing your email. I know so many people struggle to stay on top of emails and other messages. It can be a never-ending struggle. Yet, the process I teach you in the book will give you a framework you can adopt that will ensure you are never behind with your communications, and you will begin to enjoy communicating through email and other messaging services (no, really you will, I promise)  One of the chapters many of the pre-readers say they enjoyed most was the chapter on common pitfalls. This chapter lists the most common issues you will face as you develop your own system and shows you how you can avoid them or, if they are already embedded, how to get out of them so you unblock any problems quickly and effectively.  This chapter draws on my experience working with people from all walks of life and multiple different jobs, from senior executives to stay-at-home parents, all of whom face different challenges as well as some common ones.  Ultimately, though, no matter how much you have to do, you still only have twenty-four hours each day. Understanding that and knowing what you want time for will give you a huge advantage over your peers—well, the ones who don't read this book.  It gives you a framework on which to create a structure that safeguards time for the things you want time for—not just in your personal life—which often gets sacrificed by our work life—but also for the critical things in your professional life, such as career development, having enough time each day to deal with communications, and your all-important core work—the work you were employed to do.  While writing this book, I quickly learned that many productivity best practices are not just best practices but laws. To write a book, you need to write. Wasting time trying out different writing tools does write a book. The only way to write a book is to write. That's the same for anything you want to do. To landscape your garden, you need to get outside and dig, build and plant.  To do that, you will need to protect time. That means blocking out time on your calendar that is dedicated to doing the work.  And, the best law of all—it will always take you longer to do than you imagine. I expected this book to take around twelve to eighteen months. It took nearly forty. I laugh at myself now for being so optimistic. But now the book is available, I can honestly say that the journey has been incredible. Frustrating at times, yes, but that was always going to be part of the journey.  Whatever you want to do, please enjoy the journey. Find the time, protect it and just start. You will discover things about yourself you never knew. You'll learn patience, how to deal with setbacks and frustration and, more importantly, how to overcome those setbacks. Each project, whether it is writing a book, landscaping your backyard or building a career, will teach you things that you can take with you into your next endeavour and give you skills and know-how for the next time you embark on a journey.  All that remains for me to do now is to ask you to buy Your Time Your Way: Time Well Managed! Life Well Lived! Get control of your time so you can live the life you want to live. The link to purchase the book is in the show notes. Thank you for listening, and it just remains for me now to wish you all a very very productive week.

They also come up with a set of rules to govern internal projects.

What sorts of projects qualify as “A Big Project” to you?  What inspires you to start that type of project? Do you plan ahead or just wing it and see how it goes? Do you break it down into pieces or tackle it all at once? How long does a “big project” usually take you? This week Jenny & Moira answer these questions while we explore Big Projects.Insewmniacs is created, performed, edited and produced by Jenny Hassler and Moira Asheland.  Please check us out on Instagram at @insewmniacs @johassler @atomicbabycosplay.  You can find our community over on Patreon as well!  Good night - sleep well, we know we won't!

A throng of VOSD Podcast nerds nestled into the Modern Times Beer + Coffee outpost in Midway this week. Our pod crew was ready to dive headfirst into big city projects, taxes and fees. But first, we brought up Voice environment reporter MacKenzie Elmer and a resident she recently profiled. During the Jan. 22 storm, Jesse Preciado dove into rising floodwaters on his Southcrest street.
