Samantha Lane talks about how a near-death experience showed her that you don’t need to overwork to find your value. Her realization that she shares with others is not to wait to live the life you want. She talks about three pillars: (1) prioritization, (2) plan, and (3) protecting. She encourages people to plan their upcoming week on Fridays.
Samantha shares the quote that changed her life: “How we are spending each day is how we are spending our lives”
She encourages you to ask yourself: “Does my calendar line up with what I feel is important?”
How to protect your plans
She encourages to see time, less as a concept and more as a measurement. For nonfiction writers, Samantha talks about telling your story for others to see themselves in your story and that it’s not actually about you, it’s about the person experiencing your story. Time management is energy management.
