“An uncluttered life is an abundant life, and that seems very counterintuitive. We tend to think of abundance as a lot of whatever, and therefore we clutter up our lives. But truly, when we have a life that is not cluttered, we can really live the abundant life that we were designed to live.” – Angie HycheToday's featured bookcaster is a mom, wife, speaker, veteran community theatre actress, retired certified professional organizer, and the owner of Shipshape Solutions, Angie Hyche.

Send us a textI'm tying in with the wonderful "Adolescence" program on Netflix this week as I did an interview that I think a lot of people will love on a subject that the program touches on.A couple of years ago I had the pleasure of talking to Daniel Sih; Daniel is an award winning author has written a tremendous book called "Raising Tech-Healthy Humans". It's a practical handbook to help parents reset their children's tech-habits and give them a great start to life. If you're concerned about your kid's social media/phone/tablet habits then this is the interview to listen to!We're talking about many things including;How to get an 8-year old off a tablet is a different process from teaching a 4-year old to use devices sensibly.The difference between "lean-back" and "lean-in" technology and why it really matters.How YouTube on the television is completely different from family movie night.Why family technology time is a positive whereas spending time on the phone maybe isn't.How to spot when your kid's tech-habits are becoming a problem.How the technology, and social media, is DESIGNED to keep your child online so you as a parent have to be aware of what you're really up against.YouTube is different when you're not signed in!The physical, and developmental, effects of certain tech on your child.The easiest ways to progress your child through the different forms of technology, and why you should slowly build up their exposure rather than just giving them access all in one go.And much, MUCH, moreDaniel is a tremendous speaker and is very knowledgeable on this subject, if you're at all interested in what YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok and everybody else online is doing to make sure your child is an avid consumer of their products, and how to make sure you teach your kids to use these tools properly, you will want to listen to this.

In this episode of The Spacemakers, Daniel Sih and Matt Bain discuss the “mid-life money reset.” Drawing from the fable of The Ant and the Grasshopper, they explore the complexity of making wise financial choices during the mid-life squeeze. When is delayed gratification wise, and when is it foolish? When should we shift from saving to ‘dissaving'? And how do we juggle the demands of saving for the future while enjoying the present?

One common piece of career advice is to “follow your heart”—that is, pursue what you love and chase your passions. While this may be great advice at 40, it can be downright misleading at 20, as what works in one season of life may not apply in the next. In this episode, Daniel Sih and Matt Bain continue their exploration of career resets as the years go by. We'll discuss the importance of building career capital through deliberate practice and the value of “actively doing nothing” to uncover your life's meaning.Resources: GET A FREE SUMMARY OF SEASON 2 with print-ready activitiesLIFEPLANSTRENGTHSKAIROS MOMENTS VIDEODiscover more:SPACEMAKERS WEBSITEYOUTUBERAISING TECH HEALTHY HUMANSThis season is made possible with support from our sponsors: Banjo's Bakery CafesThis podcast is recorded and produced by Production Farm StudiosMentioned in this episode:Banjo's Bakery Café's - FRANCHISEES 1A warm thanks to our sponsor, Banjo's Bakery Café's, who are expanding across Australia and looking for new franchisee's!

While career resets are challenging at any age, they are particularly so in mid-life.

In this episode of The Spacemakers, hosts Daniel Sih and Matt Bain look at the topic of Making Space For Quiet In A Loud World.Blaise Pascal once wrote: “All human evil comes from man's inability to sit still in a room”. While perhaps an overstatement, it speaks to the importance of silence, deep thought, and self-reflection. Without space, we become frantic, caught up in meaningless busywork, living according to someone else's script.

In episode #124 chat with William Wadsworth, a memory and productivity psychologist, author, and host of the Exam Study Expert podcast.Highlights: 1. If you feel overwhelmed, confused, or frustrated – you are likely simply cognitively overloaded. 2. When you understand Cognitive Load Theory you can combat procrastination and be a more effective learner.3. Optimize intrinsic load by breaking tasks into manageable components and applying full cognitive power to each step.4. Identify and address external distractions like technology and environmental factors (use headphones as a signal for focused work and create a tangents list for future exploration)5. Externalize “to-do” lists to minimize mental clutter and stay focused on the task at hand.6. Recognize the role of germane load in fostering creativity and insights and embrace spaces for idea generation, such as walks or shower time.Connect with William YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@examstudyexpertTwitter: https://twitter.com/examstudyexpertFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/examstudyexpertInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/examstudyexpertExam Study Expert podcast via https://examstudyexpert.com/podcastThe Scholars Way (30 day mindset / productivity program for scholars): https://william-s-school-4d20.thinkific.com/courses/the-scholars-way?ref=8cdb35Sounds of the Bodlein: https://www.ox.ac.uk/soundsofthebodleian/Six Pillars of Study Success (free download): https://examstudyexpert.com/PillarsProductivity Episodes#81 Productivity Hacks with Scott Miller; https://www.buzzsprout.com/1547113/episodes/11089338#87 Increase Your Productivity and Decrease Stress with Dr. Frank Buck: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1547113/episodes/11526361#89 Technology Addiction vs. Technology Mindfulness: How to Put Humans First with Rob Krecek: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1547113/episodes/11545822#92 How to Make SPACE for Things that Matter with Daniel Sih: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1547113/11832398Support the showSupport this free content: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1547113/supporters/new Get The Happy Doc Student Handbook: https://www.amazon.com/dp/0578333732Other resources at: http://Expandyourhappy.com Treat me to a green tea: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/expandyourhappyWant to make my day?

What's the toll of silence deprivation on our ability to solve problems? How might our widespread adoption of MS Teams and Slack be hindering our focus at work? And most importantly, what practical steps can we take to retrain our minds to concentrate on what truly matters, for our health, relationships, and quality of life.These are big topics, but the goal is simple – to leave you with more space to focus on what really matters in work and life.

In this episode of "A Magical Life" podcast, host Magic Barclay interviews Daniel Sih, the author of "Spacemaker: How to Unplug, Unwind, and Think Clearly in the Digital Age." Daniel shares his journey of discovering the impact of digital overuse on our mental health, relationships, and overall well-being. He emphasizes the need to create intentional space in our lives by setting limits on technology use, planning patterns of unplugging, assigning rest before work, cultivating face-to-face relationships, and embracing silence for deep thought. Daniel's book provides practical tips and strategies to help individuals live a more balanced and holistic life in the digital age.Key Takeaways:The messages embedded within our devices shape the way we think and act. We need to be aware of the impact of technology on our worldview and habits.Digital power is inherited and requires intentional use for positive impact. We should consider how we can use our digital power to help others.Too much freedom and unlimited choice can be problematic. Setting life-giving limits on technology use leads to long-term freedom.Adopting patterns of rest, relationships, and deep thought creates space for the things that matter in our lives.The SPACE principles (Set Limits, Plan Patterns, Assign Rest before Work, Cultivate Community, Embrace Silence) guide us in creating intentional space in the digital age.Daniel is an award-winning author, TEDx speaker and productivity expert with 20 years experience working in senior leadership and strategic consulting roles across Australia and the UK.

In this episode, I distill four themes gleaned from interviewing my first 100 guests.#1: Self-care is non-negotiable & yes you do have time. #2: There is joy to be found in exploring new & different ways of thinking.#3: Productivity is a choice. Where you are going to be productive & how productive you are going to be is in your hands.#4: Curiosity makes life way more interesting.Practical tips:1. Start your day with a morning routine - even 10 minutes will have an impact (see episode #3).2. Delete all Social Media apps from your phone.3. Articulate a philosophy around technology by asking how it aligns with your values & then make changes - like #4 & #5.4. Delete social media accounts that aren't serving you.5. Claim an honest day of rest (Daniel's book: https://amzn.to/3iEzHkT) 6. Learn to say NO (episode #71).7. Remember that productivity is a choice.8. When memories take precedence over school/work goals enjoy those times - don't beat yourself up for not meeting goals that can wait.9. Set a schedule that capitalizes on your personally productive hours10. Get curious when you are triggered and ask “Isn't this interesting?” Or, “I wonder what I might be learning here?” My Mantras:1.

Monique is a Happiness Strategist who teaches students and corporations around the world how to master their lives. Are you ready to transform your well-being? Highlights1. The primary source of suffering is your mind – this means you can take control of your happiness (yay!)2. You are not alone – most people are struggling with anxiety, depression, and feelings of overwhelm3. Consider our environment – currently there are things socially/culturally working against us 4. Your “smart” phone is designed to keep you in a state of anxiety – what behaviors around electronics could you change to increase your well-being?5. What other ways can you change your relationship around technology? See links below for podcasts that may help you dig deep into this question (they transformed my life!) 6. Exercise is key to being happy - move that body (bonus if you do it outside)7. Ask yourself (really stop and think): Where am I living? Am I in the stressful fantasy worlds of the past and future?8. Meditate (see links below for more on this) so you can spend more time in the present and therefore dissolve much of your anxiety, depression and stress9. Meditation also allows you the opportunity to know your mind (this is HUGE!)10. When starting a meditation practice, find someone who can mentor you (Monique's info below)11.

In this conversation, Karl Vaters talks to Daniel Sih about the information in his recent book, Spacemaker: How to Unplug, Unwind and Think Clearly in the Digital Age. Specifically, we address three areas that are having a massive effect on our lives and ministries: Clutter Neuroplasticity The stories we tell In our increasingly tech-driven world, the technology that used to be (and still can be) so helpful is now causing significant changes to the way we work, worship, live, communicate and even the way our brains are wired. And many of these changes are not good. But the news is not all bad. Daniel offers great Bible-based insights into how we can acknowledge these challenges, offer a far better alternative, and minister in ways that answer people's deepest needs. But first, we need to get and stay healthy, ourselves. Stop living by the world's stories, and find ourselves immersed in the bigger, better story God is telling.

“Productivity changes as you get older and what you really want to aim for and how you do it shifts as well.” – Daniel Sih In this episode of The Modern Man, I welcome Daniel Sih, an award-winning productivity author, speaker, entrepreneur, father, and husband. Daniel teaches people how to rethink their relationship with technology and shift their work and life habits to be more productive. Essentially, he focuses on how to get the right things done in a meaningful, directional way. Daniel believes that none of us should justify resting and living well through an economic or productivity lens. There's value in being human. There's value in setting aside your devices, prioritizing non-tech habits and hobbies, and observing how technology impacts you and your family's happiness. Are you suffering from “digital overuse”? Are you mastering your tech tools or are they mastering you? Regardless of your answer, it's likely time for you to begin making pace and making space in your life. Tune in to learn how to do that as well as how pace and space can transform your relationship with technology, productivity, and happiness. Key Takeaways / What You'll Learn: [01:02] About Daniel Sih & Spacemaker. [03:00] How do you stay productive while parenting, running a business, or nurturing a marriage? [05:32] How a slower pace and rest can help you be more productive. [08:35] The true relationship between technology and productivity – How does our productivity and happiness suffer when we use technology? [12:33] The two skillsets of being a Spacemaker. [14:47] What you practice changes your brain… How does our use of technology change and even harm our brains? [20:40] Daniel breaks down the pros and cons of using social media. [25:48] Tips for boosting productivity, better manage your technology use, and build the life you really want. [34:10] How to set your kids up with good tech habits & When is the right time to give a kid a smartphone? [42:09] How to connect with Daniel & Access his free resources.

We need space in the whirlwind of life to live our best life and to fully experience the world 2. Seasons (6 months to a year) of intentional imbalance are a part of life (note the word “intentional” and the concept of a “set period of time”; being stretched thin for more than a year will not serve you)3. Remember: You are more than your work/doctoral program!4. Learning how to rest is an investment, not just in terms of productivity and creativity but in terms of a meaningful human experience5. Mind wandering is important (give those “ah-ha” moments a space to appear), and if being alone with your thoughts is difficult, explore unresolved trauma with a professional6. Resting takes practice (be compassionate with yourself as you develop this skill)7. Implementing a day of rest can be a game-changer (see free downloads above)8. Know when technology is working for you…and when it is mastering you! 9. You do not need to be anti-tech to find value in unplugging from it 10. Don't forget you are human and you don't need to justify having meaningful human interaction, enjoying the sunshine, reading books, and feeding your mind with joyful thingsSome questions to ask yourself:· Have you taken time to develop a philosophy around technology?· Are you OK with letting your mind just wander? (remember the averse shock study?)· Are you ready to live life from the inside out (rather than the outside in?)· What small thing can you do to start making space in your life?Get The Happy Doc Student Handbook: https://www.amazon.com/dp/0578333732Other resources at: http://Expandyourhappy.com Support this free content: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/expandyourhappyWant to make my day?

Screen time. It's the new currency utilized when measuring how our children spend much of their time interacting with the world. With the holiday season upon us, many of us will be giving the gift of technical access to the young ones throughout our lives. Spreading accessibility to gadgets, games, and even communication or learning devices. Yet, with this gift comes empowering access to a connected world of data, influence, and interaction. A world that inevitably might also contain what is sometimes more adverse and insidious in nature - Childhood Screen addiction. The present world is now largely digital. From checking social media on our phones to gaming or binging a new show -it's hard to escape this cultural norm.

What would our lives be like if we had time everyday where we disconnected, not just from our phones, but from our computers, our televisions, our iwatches. Would we feel a sense of relief at the ability to disconnect and just be present in our non digital surroundings? Think about all the things we do with our phones- calling, texting, emailing, navigating, booking ubers, listening to podcasts or audiobooks or the news, watching youtube, listening to music, playing video games, taking photograms, and, not least of all participating in social media. It's tied to everything we do, and don't do - it's by our beside when we sleep, we never leave the house without it - because if we did we'd certainly miss it and stress out about not having it. So. How do we establish annual, weekly and daily practices of self-care by unplugging from technology as a habit? Listen in as I talk with Danieh Sih, a trainer, coach and an author of Spacemaker - How to Unplug, Unwind and Think Clearly in the Digital Age", a book which won the Australian Business Book Award in 2021, to talk about how to establish healthy digital boundaries.
