Have you ever reached the end of the week wondering where all your time went?
In this video, I share the Default Diary, a powerful productivity and time management system developed by my business coach, Peter Wrench. Rather than simply focusing on work tasks, this approach helps you intentionally design your week around what matters most: health, family, personal growth, business development, and meaningful work.
By assigning colours to different priorities, you can instantly see whether your calendar reflects your actual goals and values.
🔵 Personal health, fitness and recreation 🔴 Family and relationships ⚪ Essential operational work 🟢 Client and prospect meetings 🟠 Deep work, strategy and business growth
The Default Diary isn't just a scheduling tool. It's a framework for creating a healthier work-life balance, improving leadership, reducing burnout, and ensuring you're working towards the life you truly want.
If you feel like your calendar controls you instead of the other way around, this simple system may completely change how you plan your weeks.
