Start Noticing How You Spend vs. Invest Time


Every moment you live is either spent or invested.
Spending time often happens in reaction—chasing urgency, checking boxes, people-pleasing, or avoiding discomfort. It burns energy without creating alignment.

Investing time is intentional. It honors your values, restores your energy, and moves you toward what actually matters.

Most people aren’t aware of how much time they’re spending just trying to escape pressure. Until you pause and observe your patterns, you’ll keep leaking time in places that leave you depleted—and calling it “being productive.”

 



What I Want You to Start Noticing

  1. Begin noticing when your time is used from urgency versus intention.
  2. Are you choosing your day—or just surviving it?

 

Tiny To-Do

  • Pick one full day to track your time in real life.
  • At the end of the day, review and mark each block as either:
  • Spent (reactive, draining) or Invested (intentional, aligned).
  • No judgment—just notice the ratio.

 



 

Reflection Prompt

  • Where are you currently spending time that leaves you disconnected or resentful?
  • What would investing time look like in this season of your life?
  • What’s one small shift you could make this week toward alignment?
