• An Hour: When you finish one thing and have an hour before your next thing, do you think there’s nothing to do but scroll Instagram. Not so! There are a ton of productive things that can be done in 1 hour or less. Do your dishes, pitch that next client, organize your underwear drawer. Stop taking your hour for granted and start valuing it for the treasures it is.
