Set boundaries to protect your time from "summary" of 365 Days With Self-Discipline by Martin Meadows

One of the most important things you can do to improve your self-discipline is to set boundaries to protect your time. By establishing clear limits on how you spend your time, you can ensure that you focus on what truly matters to you and avoid getting sidetracked by less important tasks or distractions. Setting boundaries involves being assertive about what you will and will not allow in your schedule. This might mean saying no to invitations or requests that don't align with your priorities, or setting specific time limits for certain activities so that they don't take over your day. When you set boundaries around your time, you are essentially setting limits on how others can access and use your time. This can help you avoid overcommitting yourself and ensure that you have enough time and energy to devote to the things that are most important to you. It's important to communicate your boundaries clearly and consistently to others. This might involve politely declining invitations that conflict with your priorities, or setting expectations with colleagues or family members about when you are available to help or engage with them. By setting boundaries to protect your time, you are taking control of your schedule and ensuring that you have the time and energy to focus on your goals and priorities. This can help you avoid burnout, improve your productivity, and create a sense of balance in your life. Remember that setting boundaries is not about being selfish or inflexible, but rather about respecting your own time and priorities. By establishing clear limits on how you spend your time, you can create a sense of structure and purpose in your life, and ensure that you are making the most of your time and energy.
