1. Address why - Do not do things simply to kill time.
2. Allow slack time - Leave time for spontaneity.
3. Know your calendar mindset - Is it time to move on to the next event or do events shape the schedule?
4. Create intentions - Make action statements like “I will use my commute to listen to audiobooks.”
5. Rewards & punishments - Reward if things go well. Penalize if they don't.
6. Engineer defaults - Automatically dismiss distractions like email and notifications.
7. Fight urgency - Schedule or delegate tasks that are not urgent and important.
8. Make leisure leisurely - Appreciate time you gained even if it cost you.

Start here. Which do you value more – time or money? There is no wrong answer, and your response can change over time.

But research shows that people who value time are happier, healthier, and more productive.
