Mind Set in Stone Podcast
First Things First by Stephen Covey
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
What if being busy isn’t the same as being effective, and slowing down is actually the key to getting the right things done?
In this episode, Dave and Poppy explore First Things First by Stephen R. Covey, a powerful rethink of time management that shifts the focus from doing more to doing what truly matters.
They unpack Covey’s core idea that life works best when values lead and schedules follow.
The conversation looks at why urgency often crowds out importance, and how living reactively leaves you feeling productive but unfulfilled.
Dave and Poppy discuss how to identify your true priorities and make decisions that align with your purpose, not just your to-do list.
You’ll hear insights on balance, boundaries, and integrity, as well as why saying yes to everything is often the fastest way to lose focus.
Dave and Poppy also explore how putting first things first improves relationships, reduces stress, and creates a deeper sense of control over your time and energy.
This episode is thoughtful, practical, and grounding. If you’re tired of feeling rushed, overwhelmed, or stretched too thin, this conversation offers a calmer, more intentional way forward.
