It’s important to protect your time. If you don’t protect your time, nobody else will. Your calendar will be full of meetings and obligations that you don’t want to attend. You need to block off time so that you can work on the things that actually matter for your career, for your success, and for the people that depend on you.
Protecting your time is not selfish. It’s actually what allows you to dedicate your time and attention to the projects that actually matter. It’s really easy to spend your entire day in your inbox or in meetings, but in reality, that time is not as important as the time you could use just blocking it off and focusing on something important (like writing a proposal or working on a project that’s necessary for everybody in the office).
Try blocking off time proactively to work on things that are important to you and see if it helps. If you have any questions, feel free to add them to the comments, and we’ll happily respond as soon as we have a chance. Thank you so much.
