Boundaries are your friend

- Repeat after me, rules are my friend. It's true, having rules or boundaries will make all the difference when it comes to your productivity and happiness. My name is Paula Rizzo, and I'm the author of two books about productivity, "Listful Thinking," and "Listful Living." I'm also a media trainer and speaker. So how do I know so much about boundaries and protecting your time? Well, I have tested it time and time again, and believe me, I'm not perfect. In fact, the true test happened a few years back when my appendix burst, I waited too long to get to the hospital, and it took over a year to recover. From that time forward, I was much more intentional about what I let on my to-do list. Each item had to earn its place. I needed to learn the value of saying no, and it has changed my life. In this course, we'll cover why you should be protecting your time, how to track your time so you can get the right things done, how to set personal boundaries, and how to stay accountable. Don't worry, it's actually pretty fun once you get started. So come on, let's do this.
