Transcript

My name is Tom O’Leary and this is the Time Academy podcast.

My work involves coaching and educating people to unleash the power of each moment. This basically means having the most impact by managing –

– “What you do, when you do it, where you do it and indeed how you do it.”
Let me repeat that – “What you do, when you do it, where you do it and how you do it.”

Now this sounds reasonably simple and yet, if we’re honest, how many of us achieve this throughout our day?

For starters, how can you have impact unless you’re working on something that is important to you? This means that before we can truly start exploring the what, when, where and how we are brought face to face with our sense of purpose on this planet and the question Why do we do what we do? I have worked with clients with busy lives, long to-do lists and yet no clarity around why they were doing what they were doing or indeed what their priorities might be. And yet, if you’re not working on your priorities, whose priorities are you working on?

These can be uncomfortable conversations at first and yet are full of infinite possibility. And it is this infinite possibility in our relationship with time, productivity, creativity, accomplishment and much more that this podcast will explore.

Season 1 will have a series of reflections released every 2 weeks. I’ll share some of my own insights but most importantly I’ll leave you with some questions that might offer a slightly different perspective. If you are not comfortable with questions this podcast may not be for you. Likewise, if you are just seeking ready answers you’ll probably find insight elsewhere. For me, possibility comes not from seeking answers but from learning to ask better questions – possibility comes not from seeking answers but from learning to ask better questions – and that ultimately is the purpose of this podcast.

Each episode will cover one topic and, as befits a reflection on time, will only last a few minutes but will hopefully echo for some time thereafter! If you find it helpful please share! I’d also love to get your feedback and hear your stories so please feel free to email me. Thanks for listening!!
