Summary

Joe Sanok, licensed counselor, speaker, entrepreneur, and author of Thursday is the New Friday, provides insights on how the 40-hour workweek became popularized, as well as why that hundred-year-old approach needs to be questioned. Sanok and host of #ThePlaybook, David Meltzer, discuss topics including why shifting your perspective on the measurement of time is essential, how testing your weekend schedule can lead to finding out which activities mean the most to you, and why tacking habits leads to a natural trajectory for progress. Sanok also shares how his own personal experiences have taught him the importance of setting a schedule that aligns with your values.
