018: Cushioning Your Time: Build Buffers Into Your Life The Intentional Advantage

    • Self-Improvement

Sometimes life can be unexpected, and the only way we can prepare for that is by creating and building in cushions to our time so that we can slow down and do our best. In today’s episode, I’ll go over how and why we need to stop underestimating our time and instead adjust to it. Once we have these cushions, or buffers, in place we will stop wasting time and money and start giving ourselves the space to plan.
 
What’s In This Episode:
• How to build in buffers to your life.
• Real-life examples of how buffers allow you to adjust to unexpected events.
• Why sometimes it’s not the best idea to be overly optimistic.
• How to calculate the time it will actually take you to complete a task.
