It’s no secret that realtors wear a number of different hats throughout their day, and can often feel pulled in so many different directions as they try to balance the myriad of roles they play in both their personal and professional lives. Employing analogies such as channels on a television or cars in a garage, Matt and Garrett are here today to help you figure out some ways to use your time effectively and transition between these different roles, beginning by looking at the critical concepts of schedule and routine. They explore the art of task switching and unveil the pivotal role of strategic scheduling and batching activities, noting that, by acknowledging the multitude of "cars" in your garage and consciously selecting the perfect vehicle for each moment, you'll unlock unprecedented levels of productivity and bid farewell to wasted time. Our hosts go on to emphasize the profound impact of taking control of your calendar, and share some practical advice on batching similar activities and minimizing transitions in order to help you navigate the various ‘vehicles’ in your life.
