In today’s episode, I sit down with Nic Glazer to talk about what happens when even a well-oiled machine has an off day. We break down how small mistakes, missed details, exhaustion, and unexpected changes can quickly create interference, along with the importance of adaptability and personal accountability. I share how I use “stop, drop, and roll” to recognize my reactions to fear and respond with greater intention. We also discuss the value of studying your calendar, protecting non-negotiables, using non-time to increase efficiency, and recognizing the clues and patterns that help shorten the distance between an emotional reaction and a productive response.
