Are you struggling to make time for your goals? Do you keep putting the things that you work on off to the next day, week, or even month? What can you do to shake up your schedule to get to the things that inspire you?
In this podcast episode, Joe Sanok answers the question about how you can make a better schedule.
Podcast Sponsor: Apply!
Whether you’re starting a solo practice, thriving in solo practice, getting a group going, or thriving in a group! Or launching a big idea, or thriving with your big idea, we have a consultant that can help you.
With our team, we continue to grow to have consultants that will help you at every single phase of practice.
If you want to apply to have a 30-minute pre-consulting call with me, I would love to chat through where you’re at.
The goal is to just hear where you at, where you’re headed, and where you want to change things, and then to say, “Here’s where I’d spend my time and money if I were in your situation!”
We have enough people applying at every phase of practice, so we don’t need to squeeze you into anything. In fact, we would hate that.
We would rather say, “Here’s where we can join you and offer some consulting to help you reach your goals faster”.
So, apply over at practiceofthepractice.com/apply if you want some help with one-on-one consulting today.

Delay is information
Remove the emotional aspect, and look at the situation purely as data. What does this cycle tell you about your time, your schedule, and your energy?
What is the input and the output? Can you change something small to experiment with your energy, and see if it makes a difference in the way that you show up for yourself?
The quality of the energy that you have for that particular task does not line up with the energy that’s needed for that task.
Joe Sanok
Quiz yourself and reflect on these questions
Ask yourself:
- Is this task needed for the practice?
- Do you specifically have to do this task, or could it be outsourced or delegated?
- Is this task aligned with the future goals and aspirations that you have for your practice?
Maybe you didn’t get the outcomes you wanted, maybe it didn’t launch as you wanted, maybe the topic doesn’t matter anymore to you, [and] that’s okay!
Joe Sanok
What is going to help you?
Sit with your schedule, and a pen, and work through it.
Are there things that you can reschedule, cancel, or delegate?
What do you know that you need to add in for your mental, physical and emotional well-being?
Are you making time for yourself?
Are your boundaries strong between working and unwinding?
Take the time right now to text the support [structures] in your life to say, “Hey, would you be up for watching my kids every Wednesday [evening]? I want to, for eight weeks, try to do something for myself on Wednesday nights where I can connect with people.”
Joe Sanok
Fill out your ideal life into your calendar, even if it’s not fully real yet, to sketch out what your ideal life would look like on paper. Then, take small steps to make it happen.
