Our most precious resource isn’t money. It’s time. Everyone is allotted just twenty-four hours a day, and we live in a culture that keeps us feeling “time poor.” Since we can’t add more hours to the day, how can we experience our lives as richer?Based on her wildly popular MBA class at UCLA, Professor Cassie Holmes shows how to improve our lives by changing how we perceive and invest our time. Our podcast provides empirically based insights and easy-to-implement tools that will allow you to spend your hours and feel confident in those choices, sidestep distractions, create and savour moments of joy, design your schedule with purpose and look back on your years without regrets.⏺️ Voics: https://www.voics.co/🎙️ Podcast University: https://bit.ly/3Dqip2S🎤 Podcast Accelerator: https://bit.ly/3f1ir81📞 Schedule Free Call: https://bit.ly/3GsNyTU⭐ Leave a Spotify Review: https://spoti.fi/36RrL9Y Leave an Apple Reviews: https://apple.co/3uCwViF(00:00) Introduction(03:46) How to live a richer and more fulfilling life(05:18) Time poor versus time abundance(11:03) Having a lack of purpose and the busy trap(15:08) How to optimise the time you spend working(22:00) The five why's of doing what you do(29:41) Seeking discomfort for a life of happiness(34:40) The metrics of success and social comparison(37:10) The link between money and happiness (40:09) Hedonic adaptation and emotional impact(45:45) Savouring moments and enjoyable experiences(52:30) Bundling activities with enjoyable activities (55:40) Prioritisation of life activities Socials:- LinkedIn: https://bit.ly/3FCS3JA- Twitter: https://bit.ly/3ExJ26Z- YouTube: https://bit.ly/3HleVy2Support the show
