Slow Down To Do More: “Use a Surgeon’s Schedule” With Author Don Maruska

A successful approach that’s worked for me and the thousands of people whom I’ve coached is what I call the “Surgeon’s Schedule.” Surgeons succeed with laser like focus on the highest and best use of their talents in the time when they are at their creative best. Those are their surgeries. They bunch everything else into office hours, often juggling multiple demands as they catch up on patient visits, communications with colleagues, and office administration that don’t just line themselves up in simple serial order.

As a part of our series about “How to Slow Down To Do More” I had the pleasure to interview Don Maruska, the Chief Development Officer of Take Charge of Your Talent.

Thank you so much for joining us! Can you tell us the “backstory” about what brought you to this specific career path?
