It's time. To separate from:

38: Creating Time Freedom at Work

Episode 38

Tuesday, May 10, 2022 • Duration 20:34

Default thinking says, "I just need to suck it up at work." That's nonsense. You can take control of your corporate job and create Time Freedom — right where you are.

Learn the biological reasons why we feel overrun at work, plus 3 strategies (plus tactics) for creating Time Freedom.

Break free of the Corporate Cage: join the Uncaged Academy.

TIMESTAMPS

03:03 The Time Freedom mindset

03:53 That caged feeling

04:45 Why work overtakes us

07:00 How Henry Ford screwed us

09:30 Freedom framework (5 types)

10:19 Intro: 3 strategies for Time Freedom

10:36 ONE: Know thyself

12:19 TWO: Learn their game

14:57 THREE: Design your game

18:36 Recap

***

TAKEAWAYS

1. You don't "find" time; you must create it.

2. Freedom is what you're born with. It's also a choice. Choose it, and then begin to manifest it.

3. Within corporate, must adopt an "outcomes over hours" mindset.

4. Understand your personal Point of Diminishing Returns at work.

5. Much of the upfront work involves identifying and confronting your limiting beliefs.

37: Should I Choose Safety or Passion?

Episode 37

Tuesday, April 26, 2022 • Duration 13:45

What path should you take? The Safe Path is predictable and comfortable. But then there's the Passion Path, where you know you'll encounter a life of adventure and excitement. This question applies equally to life and career.

Listen up to discover a mental model for approaching safety vs. passion.

TIMESTAMPS

02:35 A question of two paths

04:28 Contemplating passion

05:39 Truly, what is safety?

07:00 Too much safety = masochism

07:22 A framework for action

11:29 Recap of big ideas

***

TAKEAWAYS

1. Starting down the Safety Path gets a relevant foothold early on. But soon enough, you'll wrestle with a burning desire for passion.

2. We're never really safe if we feel continually terrible in the process.

3. Someone else's Plan A is inevitably your Plan B

4. Understand your personal Law of Diminishing Returns — the point at which it no longer makes sense to go "above and beyond" at work.

5. Use regret as a forecasting tool — think forward to your deathbed. What anticipated insights can you pull from the future to the present?

36: My Journey in Leaving Corporate

Episode 36

Tuesday, April 19, 2022 • Duration 31:12

This is a personal and emotional episode. In the months leading up to quitting corporate in March 2022, I recorded my thoughts and feelings. This episode is a compilation of those recordings — a personal journal, if you will.

I discuss why I needed to make the leap, including the strategy and mindset that made it possible. I hope it helps you identify the “leaps” worth making in your life.

Ready to take ownership of your career and life? I’ve got something next-level for you: the Uncaged Academy.

TAKEAWAYS

1. After life fell apart for me, I took control of my corporate situation over recent years and found ways to operate on my own terms.

2. Soon, I was helping others do the same, and I discovered the seeds of a new entrepreneurial business.

35: Outcomes Over Hours

Episode 35

Tuesday, April 12, 2022 • Duration 18:27

We're still battling remnants from the Industrial Age. One of the most notorious (and life-limiting) features is the standard workweek, including the cultural pressures to operate in a "standard" way.

Matt argues that one of the keys to time freedom is to let go of the "participation points" mentality where we show up to every meeting and take on an immense workload. The solution? Focus on outcomes, not hours.

***

TIMESTAMPS

02:23 Topical overview

03:00 Battling an antiquated belief system

05:42 Negative effects of "playing their game"

07:40 Establishing a contract (with yourself & others)

11:10 Five steps to implement "outcomes over hours"

***

TAKEAWAYS

1. The traditional workweek is antiquated, and if you fall victim to its trappings, you're trading off a lot for very little in return.

2. At performance review time, no one talks about the hours you put in — they analyze the "impactful" outcomes you delivered.

3. Choosing "outcomes over hours" is a philosophy for valuing your time — being hyper-efficient with how you protect it at work while redirecting that conserved energy to your actual life priorities.

4. We must understand corporate jobs from a "utility" standpoint to maximize our income and opportunities while not senselessly going "above and beyond" because of peer pressure.

5. Identify the core outcomes you must deliver and ruthlessly adjust your calendar and habits to deliver on these.

34: Welcome to Uncage Yourself (Rebrand)

Episode 34

Tuesday, April 5, 2022 • Duration 11:29

In this episode, Matt announces the rebrand of his podcast (formerly The Rising Digital Leader). In line with his new entrepreneurial mission, Matt describes the rationale for rebranding the show. He discusses his professional journey since COVID began, what he learned in the process, and what his personal reasons were for saying goodbye to corporate.
