  • I Tried Time Blocking for 30 Days...and Here's What Happened.
    Aug 2 2022

    This week, Allie shares a helpful time management strategy she’s been loving. When it came down to it, she noticed she was doing the same reoccurring tasks every day and frequently having to rewrite for the next day. These were simple 5-to-10-minute tasks but in rewriting them every morning she knew there was a better way to optimize this time.

    She decided to get intentional, and for 30 days she time blocked out segments within her day for maximum efficiency and peace of mind. Her time scheduling tactic of opening and closing daily tasks have transformed how she does business and shows up for her clients.

    If you have questions about time blocking drop them in the comments or DM me on Instagram @thealliemartin I would love to hear from you!
