Ep 294: Tackling Stress and Managing Open Cycles with Jason Duncan
Stress is a natural part of life. But when it begins to take its toll, it's important to find ways to alleviate anxiety and pressure. Time management plays a huge role in managing stress as it helps to break big tasks down into smaller chunks that are easier to mentally digest and complete. Jason Duncan revolutionized responsibilities with the Open Cycles concept, which prioritizes tasks to stay on top of your workload.
Stress can be an incredibly difficult obstacle to overcome, but with the proper approach, anyone can tackle it head-on. Dedication and increasing mindful awareness while managing stress can have a tremendous positive impact on overall wellbeing and goal achievement. Tune in to Jason to discover the key strategies and effective techniques for improving productivity!
Episode Highlights
00:32 - There's always pain in change. It may not be immense pain, but there's some pain in change. I mean, I'm right-handed and brush my teeth on the right hand everyday. But if for some reason my right hand is not available and hurt and I have to brush with my left, that change is painful, and can be because I might hit my gums, or anytime we change, there's pain in it. But when the pain of staying the same outweighs the pain of change, that's when change occurs.
