You Don’t Have a Time Problem

Why attention—not effort—is what runs out first

When work feels heavy, time is often blamed. Not enough hours. Not enough space. Not enough margin to think.

But most people don’t run out of time. They run out of attention.

This episode explores how constant switching, low-level urgency, and unfinished thinking quietly drain focus long before the clock does. And why protecting attention—rather than adding more effort—is often the first step toward real clarity.

A calm reflection for moments when you’re busy, capable, and still struggling to focus on what matters most.
