Yesterday, posted in her community asking 'What's up with Tuesdays?' and it got me thinking...I'll share how I intentionally design my calendar/week. I schedule my Tuesday's with back to back calls (mostly clients, some networking/relationship building). 50 minutes each (so I can get 10 minutes to stretch and reset). And I record using Fathom. This lets me be present in the conversation and go back later to review it. (Fathom is free to start!)
I do this intentionally. A mid-day call doesn't just derail your big thinking for the 30 mins to 1 hour you commit to the call. It derails it for appx 27 mins before and after. It disrupts any chance you had at a flow state and your ability to get things done.
Yesterday was Tuesday and I had 7 hours of calls 🤯
At the end, something else showed up for me. 4 of the 5 clients I spoke with prefer to be outside over being in front of the computer. There is nothing wrong with this and I love that they are so clear in it. But, if that is the preference, then we have to intentionally design your business to allow for it. Your $1M+ Ideal Role. It's entirely possible, it just requires a design.
So - happy day after Tuesday!
Do you time block or set your schedule in a way that allows you to find the 'flow' state when needed? Or is it a free-for-all on the calendar?
P.S. Some of you may not know that I travel full-time with my family. I absolutely work more than 40 hours per week - but it is on my own terms. An intentional calendar is all part of the plan. My kids, who are homeschooled, do all of their extra-curriculars on Tuesdays via Outschool 🙂
