"In an age of speed, I began to think, nothing could be more invigorating than going slow. In an age of distraction, nothing can feel more luxurious than paying attention." — Pico Iyer How do you feel when you have nothing to do but enjoy your surroundings? Where nothing is urgent, and you can enjoy the moment you are in?  Never felt it? Maybe that's a problem you need to fix. Today's world makes us feel that everything must be done now, yet it doesn't. If you were to slow down, step back from time to time to think, you'd get a lot more important things done and eliminate much of what is unnecessary.  Links: Email Me | Twitter | Facebook | Website | Linkedin Join the Time And Life Mastery Programme here.

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.  Slow down. There, I've said it.  If there were one distinguishing characteristic of those who control how they spend their time and when, it would be that they are slow.  Not in a negative way, more in an intentional way. They meet their deadlines, are never late for appointments and have clearly had time to read through the meeting preparation notes.  Even in one of the most stressful occupations, that of being a special forces soldier, they are trained to slow down. The US Navy SEALs have the expression “slow is smooth. Smooth is fast”, and I know from talking with former members of the UK Special Forces that a large part of their training is focused on slowing down and being deliberate with their actions. Of course, the problem here is that when you're faced with twelve urgent Teams messages, you have five missed calls from an important customer, and your next appointment is about to start, the last thing your instincts will tell you to do is to slow down.  Yet it is precisely in those situations that slowing down and being intentional about what you do next is what you do.  Slowing down calms your over-anxious mind, and when your mind is calm, you make better, more rational decisions.  And slowing down is what this week's question is all about. So, to kick us off, let me hand you over to the Mystery Podcast Voice for this week's question.  This week's question comes from Hanna. Hanna asks, Hi Carl, I work in a very busy Pharmaceutical company, and from the moment I step through the door at work, it feels like chaos. My phone never seems to stop ringing, and my Teams feed looks like it's alive. It's always moving! The day's a blur. What can I do to slow things down and regain some control? Hi Hanna. Thank you for your question.  One of the things I've learned is that we do have control over the speed of the day. I know often it feels like we don't, but we do.  The reason is that we always have choices, even when it often feels like we don't. You can choose to answer your phone or let it run to voicemail. You can choose to answer those urgent Teams messages immediately or not, and you can choose to go to the staff rest area and make yourself a nice cup of tea.  Unfortunately, it's natural for us to head straight into the storm of those phone calls and messages. And when we do that, we start conditioning ourselves to do it consistently.  Yet maybe the best thing you can do is pause, make that cup of tea, and strategically plan your approach.  This is often what I call the tactical retreat. Step back, pause, and look at what's currently on your plate and your most important tasks for the day.  However, you will only be able to do that if you can move from being a firefighter to becoming a fire prevention officer.  Firefighters charge straight into every issue with only one intention: putting the fire out. Fire prevention officers: pause, look at the bigger picture, and seek ways to prevent the fires from starting in the first place.  In all companies, you need both types of people. You're not going to prevent every crisis or urgent issue. Yet many can be prevented.  I gave one example in last week's episode.  If you have ten equally urgent messages to reply to, you're going to have to choose which one to respond to first.  If you don't have a process or a strategy for handling that situation, you will panic. Panicking slows you down because the act of panicking creates a lot of activity, yet nothing happens to deal with the messages.  The strategy I suggested was to use the first-in-first-out approach. Deal with the oldest first. This way, even if the last message you received is from your angry boss, at least you won't have to deal with eight angry customers as well.  And let's be honest, if you were to give yourself fifteen minutes to deal with these messages, nobody would be waiting more than fifteen minutes for your response.  There is one trick you can use every day that will help you slow things down. That is to protect the first thirty minutes of the day to get a handle on the day.  Hopefully, you won't have a crisis every day, but those first thirty minutes give you a chance to review your Teams messages, emails, and your plan for the day. You can also speak with your colleagues to see what's happening and deal with anything urgent that popped up at the start of the day.  More often than not, you won't need the full thirty minutes, but you have it protected, and on the days you don't need it, you can make yourself that lovely cup of tea.  Another trick is to give yourself a proper screen break between work sessions.  Now, this will depend on the kind of work you do. If you were a graphic designer, an accountant or a journalist, a lot of your work would be spent sitting in front of a computer screen.  If you were to stop after ninety minutes, get up, and walk somewhere for ten minutes without a screen, that screen break would give you time to stop and think. That thinking might be what element you can add or remove from the design you are creating, or where to place a particular paragraph in the article you are currently writing.  Getting away from your screen allows your brain to relax. It's when your brain is relaxed that you make better, more rational decisions.  Yet, when we are under deadline pressure, stepping away for ten minutes is often the last thing we feel we should do.  When you return, allow yourself 20 minutes to address any messages that may have come in while you were locked away doing focused work.  Sometimes I find it helpful to look at the messages before I take the ten-minute break. That way, I can think about the responses while I'm relaxed.  If you've found yourself reacting without thinking all the time, and from the moment you wake up, it feels like you're go-go-go, that may be a sign you need to retrain your brain to slow down.  The best way to do this is to set aside 30 to 45 minutes each morning. This time must be focused on you. Not your partner or kids. It's time dedicated to yourself.  You could write a journal or develop a slow, deliberate morning coffee ritual. Perhaps you could add some light stretching or go out for a morning walk.  As long as it's focused on you and the things you enjoy doing, you'll find that this morning routine helps to rewire your brain to slow down.  Now for an unusual one.  Avoid unnecessary conveniences.  Part of the Reason we all feel rushed today is the speed at which things can be done. We can order home-delivered food, have our laundry picked up and delivered clean and ironed, order our weekly supermarket shop online, and have it delivered straight to our door later that day or the next.  Convenient, yes. Good for us, no. I recently saw a video about why people in the UK began gaining weight alarmingly from around the late 1970s onwards.  Yes, there was a shift in our diet. In 1979, Marks and Spencer introduced their first ready meal. It was their famous chicken Kiev, and it sparked a revolution in how families cooked.  The M&S chicken Kiev was introduced at around the same time microwave ovens began taking off, and suddenly people were eating ready-made meals.  No more “real” cooking. Boiling vegetables, cooking meat, it was pre-packaged and additive-riddled food that could be cooked in less than ten minutes.  Then there were more and more convenient ways to travel. People stopped walking to the shops. People working in offices would walk the two metres to their car in the morning, drive to their office, park in the underground carpark, and walk the five metres to the lift (elevator) to arrive at their office, having walked no more than ten metres.  Then to spend the rest of the day sitting behind a desk.  All in the name of convenience.  Yet, this convenience is causing us to speed up.  Walking is one of the best ways for us to slow down. It's one reason why studies show owning a dog can reduce stress and improve health. Dogs need walking. For me, walking Louis is one of my favourite times of the day. I get to think without a screen, get some fresh air and relax.  And given that Louis will stop and investigate every tree and lamp post, it's a slow walk.  And the final tip is to plan your day before you finish the day.  In other words, give yourself ten to fifteen minutes before you close out the day to review your appointments for tomorrow, curate your task list for the day based on how much time you have between meetings, and allow for the unknowns—there are some.  Then pick your two must-do tasks, make sure they are highlighted and stop.  You cannot do everything in one day, but doing a little often moves things forward, and soon things you thought would take hours are almost complete.  Yet, in my experience, the most significant cause of our feeling that we have no control over our day or time is the way many people are chained to a screen.  The current statistics indicate that over 7 hours a day are spent in front of a screen (and that does not include TVs).  The problem here is that messages, emails, news alerts and much more are a constant stream. The more time you spend looking at your screen, the more anxiety you feel that you are falling behind with everything. When this happens, you are no longer in control; instead, your devices are controlling you.  Yet if you were to go out for a twenty-minute walk after lunch, or do your own grocery shopping each week, you would find yourself slowing down naturally.  Add that to perhaps reading a real book in the evening and spending 30 to 40 minutes in the morning doing yoga, meditation, or journaling. You'll find that much of the speed anxiety many of you feel will start to disappear.  As for walking into your workplace and getting caught up in the rush of things, take a deep breath, make sure you know what your two most important items of work for that day are, and between sessions of work, get up, move around, make yourself some tea or coffee and think about what one thing you need to do next.  I hope that helps, Hanna. Thank you for your question, and thank you to you too for listening. It just remains for me now to wish you all a very, very productive week.

With 11 years of experience and an incredible ability to generate over $200,000 annually working just 20 hours a week, Stephanie shares how living intentionally, staying in flow, and focusing on relationships has completely transformed her life and business. Episode Summary Stephanie Peterson, a long-time Ninja and real estate professional with Windermere City Group, has built a highly efficient and relationship-driven business centered around a select group of 100 people. Rather than expanding endlessly, she focuses on depth by tracking her productivity, staying in consistent contact with her top clients, and living a well-rounded, fulfilling life outside of work. Her systematic and intentional approach enables her to balance a high income with meaningful free time. This episode delves into Stephanie's annual business planning method, including how she calculates the value of her time, schedules her week around her top priorities, and makes every decision based on ROI, both financial and emotional. Through quarterly pop-bys, annual reviews, and handwritten notes, she has made her business a hub of authentic relationships and genuine care. She also explains the art of managing her time into productive (P), indirectly productive (I), and eliminated (E) activities (she has zero E-time in her calendar). Listeners will also learn how Stephanie cultivates strong connections with fellow agents through intentional networking, hosting events, and thoughtful follow-up strategies. Whether you're seeking to streamline your business or increase your joy in your career, Stephanie's insights offer a powerful model of simplicity, connection, and purpose. Key Takeaways Focus Beats Volume: You don't need thousands of contacts to succeed; Stephanie generates six figures by serving 100 people with depth and care. Work Smarter: She works only 20 hours a week by scheduling her time with precision and tracking income per hour — over $2,000/hour for client time. Pop-By Strategy: Personalized quarterly gifts (like homemade salsa or Dad's Root Beer kits) strengthen relationships and generate referrals. Annual Reviews = Relationship Gold: She uses annual real estate reviews to provide value, deepen connection, and identify new business opportunities. Efficiency Through Systems: Everything, from gift inventory to CRM input, is systematized, allowing her to stay creative without being overwhelmed. Intentional Realtor Networking: Stephanie nurtures a nationwide referral network through memorable follow-up, event hosting, and meaningful gifts. Living Beyond Work: Embracing creativity, travel, and personal connection, she has built a life where work supports but doesn't define her. Memorable Quotes "The system is simple if you work the system." "I work 20 hours a week, earn over $200K, and focus on just 100 people." "If I want a big crop, I have to take care of my plants: I weed, water, and prune. That's how I treat my database." "Real estate has given me some of the best friendships in my life." "Don't just brush your teeth once; don't just go to one Ninja Installation. Keep brushing your business." "Busy doesn't equal productive. It's the right activities that bring results." "Who are your vital few? And what are the vital few activities?"

Are you living in that $2–4M purgatory? Busy, but not really breaking through? You're not alone. Most remodelers never make it to a stable $5M+ business, and it's almost never for lack of skill or effort. In this episode, Spencer unpacks the five core reasons remodeling companies fail to reach (or sustain) $5M in annual revenue. From underinvesting in marketing and selling free “me-too” estimates… to weak follow-up systems, fuzzy numbers, and owners who can't let go. Spencer walks through the patterns he's seen across hundreds of remodelers nationwide.

In this episode, the topic every litigator must deal with at some point: effective business development strategies. Guests Maureen Cruz, Ph.D., and Tracey Salmon-Smith, both with the firm of Faegre Drinker Biddle & Reath LLP, share tips for new business development. Waiting for the phone to ring and a client to drop into your lap isn't a strategy. Running a practice and serving current needs take up a lot of your time. But if you can carve out at least 10%-15% of your time to network, follow up, and put yourself in front of new clients and new environments. Client and business development is a deliberate process. Start by setting some time aside on your calendar. Keep those touchpoints and connections up. Talk with colleagues across your firm. Read something that might impact a client's interests? Pass it along. Whether it's through publishing, speaking, networking, ABA involvement, or pro bono work, hear how you can mindfully build your business.

Lucy and Karen get honest about one of HR's toughest challenges: helping leaders and managers actually change how they behave. Drawing on their own “humiliations” as former HR Directors, they unpack why influencing senior leaders can feel so hard – from fear of getting it wrong, to loss of status, to simple overload – and introduce four familiar resistance types: the Defiant, the Intellectual, the Busy Operator and the Reluctant. They share ten practical ways to shift behaviour without a 50-slide deck. You'll hear how to start with sharp, leader-focused questions instead of programmes, use commercial numbers to earn attention, set clear people outcomes rather than more process, offer genuine choice, and make change feel tiny and doable through simple nudges. They also explore how to swap “HR as trainer” for peer-to-peer learning, use more human language, and tailor your message to different decision-making styles – from fast-moving Drivers to cautious “steady hands”. Finally, Lucy and Karen show how to stop pouring energy into the hardest resistors and instead “go with the energy” – working first with early adopters, then using their success to win over results-focused pragmatists.    Chapters 00:03 – Setting the scene: Why influencing leaders feels so hard for HR 03:31 – Four types of resistance: Defiant, Intellectual, Busy and Reluctant 08:48 – Ten practical tips: Questions, data and focusing on outcomes 16:35 – Making it easy: Choice, tiny nudges and peer-to-peer learning 28:23 – Personas, packaging and next steps: Olivia, Jessica, Michael and a simple plan for your next leader conversation Useful Links Find out more about Disruptive HR: www.disruptivehr.com Get in touch: hello@disruptivehr.com Check out The Disruptive HR Club: https://disruptivehr.com/ https://disruptivehr.com/the-club/

In today's episode, we're stepping into the lost art of thank-you's — and the Real Simple advice column that sparked quite the conversation. After a woman wrote in wondering why her nephew never acknowledged a generous monetary gift, the columnists told her not to take it personally… because "life is busy." But is life truly too busy for basic graciousness? Inside this episode, we explore: why being acknowledged matters more than we admit how modern culture has confused convenience with connection what etiquette actually is (hint: not rules — but relational beauty) simple, elegant ways to bring gratitude back into your daily life This isn't about rigid formality or perfection. It's about presence, refinement, and the tiny rituals that make life feel more lovely.

Do people constantly tell you, "You must be so busy"? Maybe they mean it as a compliment, like you're so productive and accomplished. But here's what I've discovered: being busy is exhausting, and it's no way to live your life.   In this episode, I challenge the cultural badge of honor we've made out of being busy and offer you a different way to approach your life - one where you can do all the things you want without the exhaustion, stress, and overwhelm that typically comes with a full life.   Listen in this week to discover how to create a better-than-busy life, and practical strategies for shifting from a depleted, frantic energy to one that actually energizes you as you move through your day. I'll show you how to work with your brain instead of against it, why you should plan your own needs first (not last), and how changing your thoughts about everyday situations can completely transform your experience.   Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://jodymoore.com/541   Follow me on Instagram here: https://www.instagram.com/jodymoorecoaching/
