2. Your Calendar Is Lying to You: How to Outsmart Task and Calendar Management and Actually Get Things Done

This week on How to Hustle
If your calendar is packed but nothing’s actually getting done — you’re not broken. You’re just planning in a way your brain doesn’t agree with.

In this episode, Vishakha Abbi breaks down what really causes time blindness, why we constantly underestimate how long things take, and how to design your week using behavioural strategy instead of blind optimism.

You’ll learn:

• Why energy matters more than time when planning your day

• How “fresh start” moments can be powerful productivity triggers

• The problem with back-to-back meetings (and how to fix it)

• Tools to make time more visible

• How to plan around non-negotiable meetings or deadlines without burning out

If your calendar’s lying to you — it’s time to change the way you plan.
