Time Blocking My Way to Productivity – Plus, My New Live Show Starts Saturday! - 2025 - Week 39 Update


Journal Entry:

This week has been a game-changer for me, thanks to diving headfirst into time blocking. I’ve started using it for my entire life—not just work, but everything from family time to side hustles—and I’m feeling incredibly productive because of it. It’s like I’ve unlocked a new level of focus. I realized time blocking is exactly like budgeting in finance: if you don’t have a plan for where your money goes, it just disappears. The same goes for time—our most valuable asset. Without a "time budget," days slip away on distractions or low-priority stuff. Now, I’m mapping out my hours intentionally: slots for WinCo shifts, handyman gigs, blog posts, and even rest. Get a time budget rolling for yourself, and watch how it transforms your days.

Invest that asset wisely—it’s the one thing you can’t get back.

On that note, I’m excited to announce I’m starting the "Life with Justin Stephens" show this Saturday at 6 PM! I’ll be going live, sharing my beliefs and feelings on life, world news, and whatever else comes up in the moment. This marks the beginning of my structured video content—no more winging it, which I’ve proven doesn’t work well for consistency or impact. It’s all about using my voice to drive change, tie into my mission with America’s Holding Company, and connect with you on a deeper level.

Mark your calendars and join me—I’d love to have you there!

I’m also ramping up promotion for my blog across all my channels, investing real time into making it profitable and running as designed. It’s not just a side thing anymore; it’s the hub for sharing my journey, lessons, and the bigger vision. I’ve got quite a few people in the works who’ll be signing up with me soon, and hopefully, someday you’re one of them. This program is designed by the middle class for the middle class—it’s all about learning how life works, building ownership, and creating lasting impact.

This has been my dream in the making, and I’ll keep sharing the highs, lows, and everything in between as we go along. Here’s to growth, chasing dreams, and making every moment count!

Have a great week, everyone.

Here’s my challenge for you this week: try time blocking for one day. Block out your hours for priorities like work, family, or a passion project. See how it feels, then tweak it.

Hit reply and share your experience—I’d love to hear!

With focus and fire,

Justin

Journal Entry: This week has been excellent, and I feel like I’m really getting honed in on explaining and launching America’s Holding Company. I’ve started writing my blog directly about the mission I’m on and what I’m trying to accomplish—laying it all out there to inspire and invite others in. I’m starting to really use my voice to drive change, working on getting people to participate in that change, whether through ownership, action, or just engaging with the ideas. I feel very blessed...

Journal Entry: It’s been a week since my last update, and I owe you an honest explanation: I’ve been sidelined by intense pain in the wake of the public assassination of Charlie Kirk. May he rest in peace. It hit me harder than I could have imagined—a gut punch that left me reeling, questioning everything. In the quiet aftermath, staring at the void his loss carved out, I saw my own life reflected back: how small I’ve been playing the game, how I’ve let a victim mentality creep in and hold me...

Journal Entry: This week’s update is all about getting real with my life—gains, gaps, and the grind to make it all work. I had a great meeting with my parents, diving into the hard truth that I can’t juggle two full-time jobs forever. There just aren’t enough hours in the day, and it’s been wearing me down. So, we talked scheduling (something I’ve slacked on lately) and zeroing in on what’s truly important. It was eye-opening to list out my priorities and commit to them: Being a dad and...
