What if freedom wasn’t a thing you had to work toward one day having, but it was a choice?
I suppose the first step is deciding what freedom means to you. For me, I defined freedom as not having all my time taken by checking emails or messages.
So instead of waiting till that magical day when somehow I’d outsourced my emails and messages… I just decided to check them less.
I created a structure around when I would check these things. I check social media on a Wednesday and I check email twice a day.
Instead of hours dripping away minute by minute across the days because I was repeatedly and constantly checking these things, I was spending concentrated time blocks on them.
Now I have that ‘freedom’ I was after, and I didn’t have to wait.
What if you didn’t have to wait, but just had to choose?
