TED Talk Tuesday: Take Control of Your Time

Hey Leaders,

Ever feel like there just aren’t enough hours in the day? Laura Vanderkam challenges that mindset and offers a powerful truth: we have more control over our time than we think.

In this eye-opening TED Talk, she explains that instead of saying “I don’t have time,” we should say, “It’s not a priority.” That simple shift puts ownership back where it belongs—with us.

Leadership Insight: Great leaders don’t just manage tasks—they intentionally design their time around what matters most.

Here’s the challenge:

- Track your time for a week.

- Identify what truly aligns with your goals.

- Eliminate or delegate what doesn’t.

Because how you spend your time ultimately shapes your impact.

Key Takeaway: "You have time for what you choose to prioritize."

So, what are you choosing?
