Speaker 1: over the years from listeners like you. I care about

10
00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:36,920
Speaker 1: time because life has lived in hours, and what we

11
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:38,920
Speaker 1: do with our lives is going to be a function

12
00:00:38,920 --> 00:00:42,040
Speaker 1: of how we spend our hours. I've reviewed thousands of

13
00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:44,440
Speaker 1: time logs in the last ten years since i started

14
00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:48,879
Speaker 1: exploring people's habits. I'm fascinating by people who are successfully

Speaker 1: combining rewarding careers with fulfilling personal lives, whether that's raising

16
00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:57,000
Speaker 1: happy families, being involved in their communities, doing some sort

17
00:00:57,040 --> 00:00:59,720
Speaker 1: of crazy athletic endeavor on the weekend, or all of

18
00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:03,000
Speaker 1: the of what I've learned from studying the schedules of

19
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:07,680
Speaker 1: successful people is that life is not either or you

20
00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:10,640
Speaker 1: can throw yourself into work you love, doing what you

21
00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:13,480
Speaker 1: can to make the world a better place, and nurture

22
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:16,119
Speaker 1: your relationships with the people you love and take care

23
00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:20,640
Speaker 1: of yourself too. Everybody's life is different, but I believe

24
00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:22,760
Speaker 1: that in the hundred sixty eight hours we all have
