4-Hour Work Weeks, Flow States & Quality Family Time with Ashao Freesky

Ashao Freesky is passionate about helping parent-preneurs create more time and reclaim magic moments with their family as they build their businesses

He talks with Angela about some of the ways you can effectively change your work pattern and be focused and present for activities and time throughout your day when you have the right mindset

Key Takeaways

  • We are energy-based beings and when we deplete our energy, time becomes depleted because of our lack of energy
  • Time without energy and attention is meaningless
  • Being intentional about time and not fracturing it, giving yourself time for renewal is crucial
  • Context switching brings a new set of rules that you need to reorientate yourself to and attention residue happens when you continually switch from one task to another
  • It’s being intentional about how you structure your day and schedule activities
  • When you have scheduled a time for each activity it means you can be focused, intentional and present for the task you are working on
  • The concept of diminishing and negative returns means more time can lead to less output because of your depletion of energy
  • You can start small with any new behaviour and build a habit that can grow
  • When you have larger amounts of time that are not fractured you can achieve more
  • I plan my week to include maker time and manager time, maker time is high-value deep work time and manager time is communication and meetings that support the high-value work
  • Making sure you get an adequate amount of sleep is crucial along with movement throughout the day as this keeps your energy high

Best Moments

‘It starts with having the right mindset’

‘I like to front load my day with the most important tasks’

‘I’ve learned to flow more in the middle and start the day with a chunk of time for myself’

‘You are going to build your business by creating a team and not thinking you have to do it all yourself’
