• The 10 Time Eaters & controls: crisis management/shifting priorities; phone interruptions; lack of objectives/planning; attempting too much; drop-in visitors; ineffective delegation; personal disorganization; lack of self-discipline; inability to say “no”; procrastination—with practical ways to minimize each.

Outcomes

• Clear daily structure with priorities protected and far fewer “urgent” fires.
• Higher follow-through, better pacing, and reduced stress and guilt.
• More time and energy for meaningful work — and the results to show it.
