Summary

One of the most compelling reasons to be a student of your calendar is that while the amount of time spent on scheduling grows with the amount of appointments that people have, the time needed to actually schedule meetings decreases. This means that the more meetings you schedule, the better you get at scheduling them. Contrary to popular belief, people that schedule or have many meetings during the day are not busier than other people. There's only two determining factors whether you're busy; whether you're accessible and how productive you are. You want to focus in on your accessibility and productivity when you look at your calendars. Create your own rules and your own philosophies and you will be, not only a student of your calendar, but you'll be able to manifest accurately and rapidly whatever it is that you want to accomplish.
