188: Creating Space and Productivity with Daniel Sih

Creating Your Encore Career

We’re constantly bombarded with distractions and notifications in the tech world, and it takes bravery to make space in our lives, no matter which stage we’re in. In fact, an average American male has spent 10,000 hours of online gaming by the time they're 21. 10,000 is the magic number for self-mastery of anything, yet what we're mastering is online games or social media.

It’s time we stop becoming over-reliant on technology and allowing low-value digital activity to shape the texture of our lives, and intentionally create that space to grow and become our best selves.

In today’s episode, I’m speaking with Daniel Sih, an award-winning author, productivity expert, and TEDx speaker. His company, Spacemaker, teaches people how to make space, and to think, rest, plan, and live differently by shifting the way they work.

We'll dive deeper into these concepts:

• The business of teaching productivity
• The material that led to his book, “Spacemaker”
• The skill of “Resetting” in life
• Why Space is important in every stage of life
• Why tomorrow’s leader should train their brains to focus and not be distracted by tech every few minutes
