Aligned Planning offers a transformative approach to time management, shifting the focus from mere scheduling to creating a life aligned with your core values and aspirations. It addresses the common problem of feeling dictated by your calendar, rather than having it reflect your true desires. The book argues that traditional time management often fails because it doesn't address the root cause: a disconnect between our actions and our core beliefs. One intriguing fact is that understanding and prioritizing your values can lead to a more fulfilling and purpose-driven existence. The book is structured in three parts, guiding you through self-discovery to uncover your values, setting achievable goals, and integrating work commitments into your life. It provides a step-by-step guide to implementing Aligned Planning, complemented by case studies. This approach is unique because it combines personal values clarification with strategic goal setting and practical scheduling techniques, emphasizing effectiveness over mere efficiency, helping you to do the right things rather than simply doing things right.
