You have an additional 72 waking hours per week. &amp;nbsp; What are you doing with this time? &amp;nbsp; That’s the question today’s guest, Laura Vanderkam, tried to answer by analyzing more than 1,000 time logs kept by full-time professional workers. Our collective narrative says that Americans are overworked, sleep-deprived and don’t have enough time for family or personal lives. That’s our emotional truth. But statistics paint a different picture. When more than 1,000 professionals track their time in 15-minute increments over the course of a 168-hour week, the data doesn’t point to time deprivation.&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; In today’s episode, Laura describes this surprising fact: we have more time than we think. &amp;nbsp; She also shares tactics on how to reduce chores and errands, stay focused and productive at work, and recognize the difference between efficacy and diminishing returns.
