Whether you're a quick starter who jumps in with enthusiasm, a perfectionist who gets caught in endless planning, or a researcher who loves gathering information but struggles to take action, this episode is for you!

A few quotable moments:

“Time is really my passion because of my history of feeling as if so much had seeped through my fingers... out of all the resources that God gave us on this earth, time is the only thing we can never make more of."

"If you don't have the systems and the structure set up in the background to help you, you're going to stay trapped in that reactive mode."

"It was just almost an addiction to busyness... we get so much satisfaction of accomplishing so much by being so busy. But so often at the end of the day, we sit down and feel as if we've accomplished nothing."
