39. On Rethinking & Shaping Your Time with Kathy Oneto
Overview
In today’s modern world with its never-ending demands, we can be left feeling like time controls us more than we control our time.
But what if time is an illusion as Albert Einstein said? What if we can rethink our time to support us rather than control us? What if we shift our modern perspective of time and see it as simply a construct that can be reshaped? Because our current ways of working with time can often shackle us to unproductive ways of being and living our lives.
That’s what host and founder of Sustainable Ambition, Kathy Oneto, explores in this solo episode, offering three ways of thinking about time to shift it from something with negative associations and a sense of grasping for time towards one that’s more positive, playful, and powerful and puts you back in control.
Play with these concepts as we close out the year and start 2022, because your time is yours. How can you rethink and reshape it to make your life+work more sustainable?
Topics Covered
In this episode, Kathy Oneto, host and founder of Sustainable Ambition, talks about the construct of time and how to rethink and shape time to make your life+work more sustainable.
She explore three areas:
Where do you want to focus your time? Are you clear on this? What do you want to be busy about? What do you want to make time for?
How can you make the most of your time? What might you do from the lens that time is precious? What if you didn’t let important things go? What if you made the most of small amounts of time?
How do you want to shape the experience of your time? What if you could change the pace of time, the quality of time spent, or how your time and experiences feel?
Kathy encourages you to play with these ideas as we close out the year and start 2022 so that you can shift time from something with negative associations and a sense of grasping for time towards one that’s more positive, playful, and powerful and puts you back in control. Your time is yours. How do you want to rethink it and shape it to make your life+work more sustainable?
