143. Getting Out of the House in the AM

In this episode of The Bright Method Podcast, Kelly Nolan riffs on a question from a friend: why does it always take so long to get out of the house in the morning, and what do you actually do about it? She walks through three things – embracing how long getting out the door actually takes (it's probably 15–20 minutes, minimum), calendaring that reality instead of your aspiration so the scramble-y feeling has somewhere to go, and the one firm rule to hold in your head as you're moving through your morning. It sounds almost too simple. But if you regularly leave the house feeling behind before your day has even started, this episode is for you.Related episodes to check out:Episode 111 (time management is really about stress management, not efficiency)Episode 25 (calendaring your current reality, not your aspiration)Episode 71 (how to do things faster)Episode 32 (capturing to-dos in a realistic way)Episode 112 (includes discussion of running late)Resources mentioned in this episode:Join the waitlist for the 10-week Bright Method program here: https://kellynolan.com/bright-method-waitlistCrowdsourced Morning Tips from Working WomenLinks you might enjoy:🌿 Free 3-Day Time Management Program: Get five short, practical video lessons packed with realistic strategies to help you manage your personal and professional life with more clarity and calm.📱 Follow me on Instagram: Get bite-sized, real-life time management tips for working women – like reminders to set mail holds before travel, anonymous day-in-the-life calendars from other professional women, and behind-the-scenes looks at how I manage my own time.✨ The full Bright Method™️ program: If you're ready for a full time management system that's realistic, sustainable, and dare I say… fun, check out the Bright Method program.
