Pastors worldwide struggle with time management, often leading to burnout and strained relationships. This article explores the importance of effective time management strategies which are crucial for sustaining pastors' ministry and well-being.

If you haven't listened to Part 1, pause this episode and go back now. This is a two-part conversation, and the context matters.In Part 2, I'm talking about the moment most people get stuck: when you don't feel like it. When motivation is low. When you're tired, distracted, traveling, overwhelmed—or telling yourself this just isn't the right time to push.I share a real example from being in Mexico and asking myself a hard question: Am I the kind of person who doesn't want responsibility right now… or am I becoming the kind of person who can hold responsibility anywhere? That shift changed everything.This episode breaks down the difference between designing your life around your limitations versus becoming the version of yourself who can handle more—with less stress. Counterintuitively, it's more exhausting to live a life of constant accommodation than it is to build capacity. When you slow down the right way, you actually speed everything up.In this episode, you'll learn:How to move from “I don't feel like it” to becoming someone who doesThe actions that create real momentum (not fake motivation)How your environment and mental “soundtrack” drive your productivityWhy procrastination isn't a character flaw—it's a solvable patternHow to stop negotiating with yourself and start following throughThis is about time management at a deeper level. Not hacks. Not tricks. Identity, momentum, and decision-making that compounds over time.Join Me Live This WednesdayI'm teaching a FREE live workshop this Wednesday where I'll help you apply these ideas directly to your business—so you can create momentum, close more deals, and stop stalling out when it matters most.

Do you struggle with planning because you feel too busy, find it tedious, or rely on your memory to hold everything together? In this episode, I walk through three common time management and planning mistakes I see lawyers make and explain why they quietly create more stress, reactivity, and lost time than you might realise. We look at what actually happens when you skip planning and dive straight into your day, why avoiding planning because it feels boring often leads to more work later, and how relying on a strong working memory can overload your brain and undermine your effectiveness. I share practical ways to approach planning that are realistic for busy legal practices and designed to support focus, clarity, and follow-through.   Get full show notes and more information here: https://thejoyfulpractice.com/245   Click here to grab my procrastination protocol checklist: https://mailchi.mp/0c249b28750c/procrastination_protocol   Click here to grab my time management podcast roadmap: https://mailchi.mp/d267dabde299/time-management-lawyers-podcast-roadmap

**BEST OF** In an effort to make time for ourselves, many of us fall back on using To Do lists and time blocking. But often these strategies can end up with the same result: getting lost in chasing productivity. So how do we make time for the things that truly count? Oliver Burkeman is a New York Times bestselling author of books such as ‘Four Thousand Weeks: Time Management for Mortals’ and ‘Meditations for Mortals: Four Weeks to Embrace Your Limitations and Make Time for What Counts’. Oliver is also a regular columnist for The Guardian. If there is anyone who truly understands the philosophy and psychology of time management and happiness, it’s Oliver. Oliver shares: The mindset you should be using when you first approach a task if you want it to be achieved easily How you can free up time by minimising time spent on worrying The strategy you should be utilising instead of a to-do list to actually create a sense of achievement Why being open to distractions can actually be beneficial Key Quotes:"Don't start from the position that unexpected things happening must be bad." “There is this tendency to set things up in your mind so that you can never feel like you’ve done something well enough."

In this episode of the Acting Business Bootcamp Podcast, I sit down with James Robbins to talk about listening to your inner voice, building resilience, and what happens when you stop ignoring the signals that something needs to change. James shares stories from his life as a climber and leadership coach, including what he's learned from climbing mountains, facing fear, and doing hard things repeatedly. We talk about burnout, discernment, anxiety, and how these lessons apply directly to actors navigating uncertainty in their careers. This episode is about courage, self-trust, and staying engaged in your acting career even when the path forward feels uncomfortable or unclear. About James James Robbins is an international keynote speaker, leadership advisor, and author of Nine Minutes on Monday and The Call to Climb. He helps people uncover purpose, build resilience, and lead with clarity and heart. His work has inspired leaders and teams around the world, blending storytelling with practical strategies for growth. Don't Ignore Your Appointment With Your Soul James shared a phrase in this conversation that stayed with me: most of us ignore our appointment with our soul. He talked about how this often shows up when everything looks fine on the outside, but internally something feels off. You might have stability, validation, or a life that makes sense to other people, yet still feel restless or disengaged. Ignoring that inner voice does not make it disappear. Over time, it usually leads to exhaustion or burnout. That deadness is often the signal, not the problem. Doing Hard Things Repeatedly Makes You Wiser A major theme of this episode is the value of doing hard things on purpose. James described climbing at high altitude and how mountains wear you down mentally before they wear you down physically. Your mind wants to quit long before your body actually needs to. The more experience you have doing hard things, the better your judgment becomes. You develop discernment. You learn when to keep going and when turning back is actually the wiser choice. This applies directly to acting. Staying in the work long enough builds perspective. You stop reacting to fear and start responding from experience. The Mind Quits Before the Body One of the most powerful lessons James shared is that the mind gives up before the body does. On the mountain, this is obvious. In acting careers, it's quieter. It shows up as procrastination, self-doubt, or the story that nothing is happening. Learning to recognize when fear is mental rather than physical allows you to keep moving forward without forcing yourself into burnout. Creating Your Own Weather James talked about the idea of creating your own weather, choosing an elevated emotional state instead of reacting to circumstances. Rather than letting fear, stress, or frustration dictate your day, you learn to orient toward peace, purpose, confidence, and clarity. That internal state changes how you make decisions and how you show up to your work. For actors, this means grounding yourself internally before auditions, self-tapes, and long stretches of waiting. Facing What You Really Want A recurring theme in this episode is how difficult it is for people to answer the question, what do you really want? Often, it's not confusion. It's fear. Wanting something fully means risking judgment, failure, or change. Ignoring that question keeps you stuck in noise. Slowing down enough to listen gives you direction. James Robbins and Call to Climb James's experiences inspired his book Call to Climb, a fable about answering the deeper call in your life when you've been avoiding it. We've included links in the show notes if you want to learn more about his work or pick up a copy of the book. Time Management and Alignment This episode connects closely with the work I do in my time management workshop. We talk about how burnout often comes from misalignment. When your days don't reflect what you actually want, frustration builds.

I used to think "time management" meant constantly optimizing my time and extracting every last minute of productivity out of myself.But this wasn't time management - it was self-punishment. Like running a military bootcamp in my head.And when you approach time and productivity through this lens, it ALWAYS ends in one of two ways: burnout or complete paralysis (or both).Here's what changed everything for me: I stopped treating time as a commodity to be optimized. I stopped treating myself like a machine. And I learned a human approach to managing my time.In this episode, I'm introducing the first of two tools that completely revolutionized my life - and how I think about time. This is how I've been able to accomplish more than I ever thought possible in business and in life, without burning out.This is part one of a two-part series. Episode 2 drops next week.If you've been struggling with productivity, overwhelm, or the constant feeling that there's never enough time - this episode will change how you work.Royalty Free Music from Tunetank.com Track: Urban Legend by Musical Bakery https://tunetank.com/track/3362-urban-legend/

Are you constantly interrupted by household stuff all week long? The emails from school, the forms that need signing, the bills that aren't on autopay, the portals that need checking. For years, I was handling these things every single day, either stopping what I was doing or carving out time each afternoon to stay on top of it all. But here's what I finally figured out: most of that stuff didn't actually need to be done that day. It just felt urgent because I didn't have a system for it.Today I'm breaking down what I call my Household COO time.

In this episode of the Relational Recovery podcast, Wes Thompson and Austin Hill of The Refuge discuss the importance of time management, the fallacy of "needing more hours in the day", why it's important to plan and prioritize, and more. 

Are you tired of feeling stuck, unstable, and unsure about your future? God has a perfect plan already scripted for your life—and it's time to take control by surrendering to His priorities.In this life-changing message, Pastor Jerry Dirmann reveals the biblical keys to moving from instability to stability, from floundering to flying. Drawing from Ephesians 2:10, you'll discover that you are God's masterpiece, created for good works He prepared in advance for you to walk in. But here's the challenge: "Something's got to go." You cannot serve God and chase money (Matthew 6:24). You cannot reach your destiny while clinging to distractions, unhealthy relationships, time-wasters, and wrong priorities.Pastor Jerry teaches the power of pruning using John 15:1-2—God cuts away what's unnecessary so you can bear more fruit. Whether it's excessive social media, overworking, hobbies that drain your time, or relationships that pull you away from God's purpose, pruning is essential for fruitfulness. Using Stephen Covey's Four Quadrants of Time Management, you'll learn to focus on Quadrant 2: the important but not urgent things that build a solid life—prayer, discipleship, family, health, and preparation for your calling.But what holds people back from God's best? Two powerful hindrances: REGRET and RESENTMENT. Pastor Jerry shares how the Apostle Paul (who murdered Christians), Peter (who denied Jesus), and David (who committed adultery and murder) all experienced restoration and fruitfulness after major failures. There is no sin too great for God's forgiveness. If you've been carrying the weight of past mistakes—even abortion—this message includes a prophetic word of complete forgiveness and healing."Your past will not hinder your future in Jesus' name." God is declaring over you: "I am He who restores the years the locust has eaten" (Joel 2:25). It's time to forget what is behind and press toward the prize (Philippians 3:13-14).KEY SCRIPTURES:• Ephesians 2:10 - We are His workmanship• Matthew 6:24 - You cannot serve two masters• John 15:1-2 - The Father prunes for fruitfulness• Matthew 6:33 - Seek first the kingdom of God• Psalm 90:12 - Number your days wisely• 1 Thessalonians 4:4 - Possess your vessel in sanctification• Romans 8:1-2 - No condemnation in Christ Jesus• Philippians 3:13-14 - Press toward the prizeTAKEAWAYS:✅ God's perfect plan for your life is already prepared—surrender to it✅ Time management is really self-management—prioritize what matters eternally✅ Pruning is necessary for fruitfulness—let God cut away distractions✅ Regret and resentment will sabotage your destiny—receive God's forgiveness✅ "You have to give up to go up" (John Maxwell)✅ "There's a place on top if you're interested"—commit to God's prioritiesThis message is for anyone ready to stop drifting and start building a solid life on the solid rock of Jesus Christ (Luke 6:47-48). Whether you're struggling with time management, past failures, financial stress, or unclear direction—this sermon will equip you with practical, biblical wisdom to take control of your life God's way.

Or quit a goal and felt like you failed - even though it never fit your season to begin with? That's not a discipline issue, it's misalignment. In today's episode we're diving into what misalignment is in order to help us better see and understand what true alignment looks and feels like, why it's important to filter all of our goals through the core of who we are, and how to make it happen. So if you have found yourself caught in the trap of guilt, comparison, pressure and more… don't worry friend, you're not alone - we all face these challenges when setting goals each year. Listen closely - goals simply just don't stick when they aren't directly connected to our IDENTITY. When we start setting goals that are identity focused and NOT for us to become just like “Suzie down the street” - that's where the magic happens. So if you're ready to get in alignment, true alignment with the core of who you really are and the woman you're striving to become - then grab that pen and paper, pop those ear buds in and let's dive into the second episode in the “Simple Goals That Actually Work for Moms” Series. P.S.

Time management struggles are often about priorities. In this episode, we explore why intention is essential for managing time well and how Christian women can align their schedules with God's priorities instead of pressure, expectations, or endless to-do lists. This conversation breaks down key principles of effective time management, the difference between activity and intention, and how clarity and confidence grow when priorities are ordered biblically. We also look at what Scripture teaches about stewarding time wisely and why obedience to God's instruction brings freedom, not restriction. If you are a Christian woman who carries responsibility, influences others, and wants to lead with clarity, confidence, and purpose, this episode will help you rethink how you manage your time and refocus on what truly matters. In This Episode, We Cover: Why time management problems are often priority problems The importance of intentional leadership in daily decision-making Key principles of productivity and focus for leaders How proper priorities bring clarity and reduce overwhelm Biblical instruction on stewarding time wisely Why obedience to God's Word simplifies leadership and life How aligning with God's priorities brings peace and confidence Key Takeaway: Effective time management begins with intentional leadership. When priorities are aligned with God's Word, clarity increases, confidence grows, and leadership becomes lighter — not because life is easier, but because it is ordered wisely.   Your Next Step If this episode resonates and you're craving deeper clarity, confidence, and intentional growth, I would love to walk alongside you.

After seven years of weekly podcasting, we felt it was time to pause, reflect, and make a thoughtful shift.In this episode, we talk honestly about change—what it is, what it isn't, and how to recognize when it's time to realign rather than quit. This isn't about ending something. It's about pruning, tending, and creating space for healthier growth.We share why the podcast is shifting to an every-other-week rhythm, how our two sister podcasts will now work together, and what this kind of discernment has looked like for us as coaches and leaders. We also talk about capacity—how honoring it isn't failure, but wisdom.If you've ever found yourself wondering:Is it time for something to change… or are we just tired?How do we honor our capacity without giving up on meaningful work?What does healthy growth actually look like in this season?This conversation is for you.Our hope is that as you listen, you'll feel permission to slow down, notice what needs tending in your own life and work, and trust that change—when discerned well—can be a gift.FREE RESOURCES:Take the FREE Intro to Needs & Values AssessmentReady to discover what uniquely matters to YOU?

Minimalism promises peace. Calm. Control. A home that finally feels manageable. But for busy families, minimalism often becomes just another guilt trap. In this first episode of my decluttering series, I explain why minimalism is not the answer to clutter, why homes exist to serve people (not aesthetics), and what homemakers actually need instead.Register for the Free Workshop: Decluttering Made Simple: 3 Surprising Ways to Get Organized WITHOUT Tossing Everything - simplyconvivial.com/declutterWe talk about:    Why minimalism and over-shopping are two sides of the same problem    Why clutter is not a moral failure    What it really means to manage a home well    Why hospitality requires equipment and use    How to think about stuff as a tool, not an enemyDecluttering matters. But it only works when it flows from ownership, competence, and purpose — not shame or image-management. I also share details about my upcoming workshop and what's coming next in this series, including real-life decluttering in my own home.This is episode 1 of a 5-part series on decluttering.Christian homemaking takes deliberate practice, not perfect systems. Every week on Simply Convivial, I share practical mindset shifts and small, steady habits that help you build a home anchored in truth and run with cheerful consistency.

There's this weird pressure to go fully digital with your planning and note-taking, like using paper somehow means you're falling behind. But despite spending over 20 years working in tech and running a digital business, the two most critical tools for staying on top of time and maximizing productivity are actually paper and pencil. It's not about being old-school or resistant to technology. There's actual neuroscience behind why your brain works differently when you write things down versus typing them out.Today, you'll discover the three brain benefits that make paper planning superior for retention, memory formation, and focus. You'll also learn when digital tools are the better choice and how to use a hybrid approach that gives you the best of both worlds. If you've been trying to force yourself to go fully digital but something just isn't working, you're about to understand exactly why.In This Episode, I'll Cover:The neuroscience behind why handwriting creates deeper retention than typingHow motor memory and spatial anchoring help you remember betterWhy paper reduces distractions and helps you prioritize informationWhen digital tools actually win and when to use them strategicallyThe hybrid approach that combines the brain benefits of both methodsJoin the FREE One Notebook Challengeand Kiss your Notebook Clutter GoodbyeFebruary 2-6, 2026www.megansumrell.com/onenotebook________________________________
