Designing Your Life: How to Focus on What Matters Most

Rob Shallenberger discusses his book "Do What Matters Most," explaining how implementing three key habits—creating personal visions, setting specific goals, and practicing pre-week planning—can dramatically increase productivity while reducing stress. These practices help people design intentional lives rather than defaulting to reactivity and chaos.

 

TAKEAWAYS

• Creating written personal visions for each key life role provides direction and meaning, transforming how you approach priorities (only 2% of people do this).
• Pre-week planning (spending 20-30 minutes weekly) allows you to accomplish 800-1,000 additional priorities annually with less stress.
• The "Do What Matters Most" matrix helps identify high-value quadrant 2 activities that lead to peace and fulfillment rather than constant firefighting.
