Set Boundaries and Protect Your Time

19m · Armed and Dadly · 24 Nov 11:00

“You've got to protect your own time because you’re not going to get it back,” says host Eric Portwood. After missing out on too many opportunities to spend time with his son, Eric realized that he needed to make a change. In today’s episode, Eric discusses the importance of setting boundaries and giving your time to what matters most. 

According to Eric, it is important we protect our time because it is the only asset we can’t get back. In order to effectively do this,  Eric explains that we need to set boundaries and say no to things that don’t help us progress towards our goals. By holding ourselves accountable and being realistic with ourselves, it will become easier to reprioritize our lives in positive ways. After all, when we protect our time we protect ourselves. 

Tune into this week’s episode of Armed & Dadly to learn how to set effective boundaries, so you can dedicate more time to being the best husband, father, and entrepreneur you can be.

Stop Overthinking

I've been MIA for sometime now from the Podcast. So many of us stay stuck and directionless because we over think every single detail of our lives. Stuck in the should haves or could haves. Paralyzed from taking action on where we want to be or go out of fear of what others may think of us. Ultimately leading to our own demise and self sabotage. Making ourselves physically sick due to the constant storm in our own heads.

In todays episode I talk about the symptoms of overthinking and some solutions on how to stop it once and for all.
