Decluttering Your Schedule: Time Management Tips for Busy Entrepreneurs

"I think one of the big things, too, is having some sort of routine. I mean, routine is for everyone, really helps a lot. And so morning and evening routine, especially for entrepreneurs, is huge." — Heidi Mills

A well-established system involves focusing on recovery time and separating tasks into lower energy periods. This allows for a more focused creative space. It's crucial to stick to these blocks and avoid letting other tasks interfere with your time. White space in your calendar is also essential for ease of flow. Having a little space in your schedule allows for a more manageable and productive day.

In this episode, Heidi Mills, a professional organizer, shares her journey from childhood enthusiast to successful entrepreneur, emphasizing time management, routines, energy management, and decluttering. She introduces her "time map" concept, practical tips for entrepreneurs, and offers valuable strategies for productivity and organization.
