Summary

Time is the canvas of your entire existence.

Thinking about time design as life design, and using the metaphor of time being the canvas on which you get to paint your life however you want it to be, opens up unlimited possibilities. You are the artist, and by designing your time, you have the opportunity to create the life you desire. It’s not just about efficient scheduling day to day. It’s actually much broader. If you look at your time more holistically in the past, present and future, you can actually begin to design the evolution of how you spend your time, which equates directly to your quality of life. What percentage of your life do you want to spend working, or devoting to family or health ten or fifteen years from now? It may seem impossible to predict, but if you design it, and create a deliberate path to achieve it, then such goals are absolutely within your grasp.

0:12.3	Time is actually the canvas of your entire existence and you get to paint your entire existence the way that you want it to reveal itself to you
0:24.8	by designing your time.
0:36.6	Welcome to Build with Rob. It is your boy Rob Deerdeck talking about one of my favorite subjects, which is time.
0:45.3	You know, and again, I love talking about the same things over and over as I continue to experience them and understand them in different and unique ways
0:55.9	for myself that I can turn around and share with you on this show and just get you thinking
1:03.5	about what I'm thinking and how this new perspective or shift in perspective may add clarity to you trying to be more efficient
1:16.7	with your time and more optimized in your life the same way it has affected me.
1:21.7	And really something lately that I've been on is this idea of like, man, time is so much different than we actually look at it.
1:30.1	We really look at time as like, oh, it's limited and we've got to make sure we use it efficiently.
1:38.0	And if you're going to design your time, that means you're going to design your schedule and all the things that you want.
1:44.3	When it's much broader than that, it's so much bigger than that because, you know, time,
1:50.6	when you think of it more of like, you know, your entire existence, everything that's happened before
1:57.5	and everything that'll happen in the future and it being this thing that you
2:02.9	get to paint and you essentially get to create it changes the perspective you know for for me
2:11.4	you know i think a lot about when i shifted over to looking at like my entire existence and then putting a number
2:19.8	to it, how much my life changed.
2:22.5	And really seeing everything in every moment, every hour, every week, every month, every year
