Everyone has calendars to logistic (I know that’s not right, but I like it), and for certain people, seasons, families, those logistics feel like they’re going to eat you alive. Right now, my Google calendar has so many blocks in it, some of which overlap and I haven’t quite figured out how to reconcile those overlaps yet. It’s a whole thing, and maybe your calendar looks or at least feels like that.
So let’s talk about how to do this like a Lazy Genius. How can you manage calendar logistics in a reasonably efficient, intentionally kind way?

We’re into compassionate time management around here, but it’s not just pep talks and high fives. We’re practical and kind, but we’re also educated. We are trying to understand why we struggle with time management, why we own so many planners, why we never feel like we’re doing enough, and even if we finally have let that go, we still struggle against the tide of everyone else making us feel bad for our beliefs.
Basically, the problem is not you, and today I’m going to show you why by reading you the first chapter in my new book, out October 8, called The PLAN.

When you feel overwhelmed without knowing what to do, the overwhelming feeling stays big and might get bigger which then feels like a problem. So here you are, overwhelmed, unsure of what to do about it; the feeling gets bigger, the problem, even though it’s unnamed, also gets bigger, and so you start throwing big solutions at an unnamed problem that don’t work, which then causes you to feel even more overwhelmed.
Instead, today I want to share with you seven ways to meet overwhelm.

As often happens when we go through life, we learn things along the way. And sometimes we learn things that we so desperately wish we had learned earlier. Does that negate their value now? No. Is learning part of the process? Of course. But I think we can learn a lot about ourselves now by acknowledging what we have already learned. Since it’s middle of summer energy, this felt like a great time to share ten things I wish I’d known in my 20s. Let’s jump right in.

This episode is for those of you who would classify yourselves as readers and those of you who would not. I want us to look at the aspects of summer reading that are all over the Internet right now and decide if they are in or out for us as Lazy Geniuses. Are we paying attention to the best things? Are we telling ourselves the kind truths? Reading has some weird layers, and we’re going to address those today.

My first book The Lazy Genius Way introduces 13 Lazy Genius principles that help you name what matters, ditch what doesn’t, and get stuff done. The first of those principles is Decide Once. Decide Once means you make one decision about one thing and you keep making that decision over and over until it doesn’t work for you anymore. Today, I’m sharing 20 decisions I keep repeating.

Sometimes life feels like a fire hose, a constant stream of events or tasks or humans or needs or stimulation that wear you down, metaphorically soak you through, and create an environment where what you need keeps getting pushed to the back of the line. In those times, what do we do?
