Pos 2 : Akar Waktu

Time Management Philosophy: Starting from the Finish Line
📌 The core philosophy emphasizes starting the planning process from the end goal or target (the finish line) rather than the initial starting point to gain clearer direction.
👩‍🏫 This approach, taught by the founder, is intended to prevent wandering aimlessly or simply "following the flow" without conscious direction.
💼 The session focuses on introducing one specific time management method: the "Kandang Waktu" (Time Cage) method.

The "Kandang Waktu" (Time Cage) Method
📌 The "Kandang Waktu" method focuses on structuring time around activities one likes and can do (Suka dan Bisa).
⏰ Initial Time Frame (for mothers with young children): 7:00 AM to 2:00 PM (7 hours) was dedicated to focused activity time, excluding sleep time from the 24-hour day.
💼 Second Time Frame (Be Professional): 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM (12 hours) emphasizes working professionally during this block, symbolized by "Gantung Daster" (hanging up the house dress), signifying a serious approach to tasks, regardless of the work domain.

Activity Quadrants and Planning
📌 Participants must list all daily activities and group them into four quadrants: 1) Like & Can Do, 2) Like but Cannot Do, 3) Dislike but Can Do, and 4) Dislike & Cannot Do.
🚧 Identify and document challenges or procrastination triggers (e.g., watching K-dramas, excessive TikTok scrolling) associated with tasks, especially those in the "Dislike but Can Do" category.
🎯 Prioritization Strategy: Allocate the longest continuous block of available time (after sleep and work/duty hours) to the "Like & Can Do" activities.

Actionable Time Allocation
➡️ Allocate subsequent time for "Like but Cannot Do" activities, emphasizing that passion and talent are developed through struggle and process, not inherent gifts.
➡️ Delegate activities that are "Dislike but Can Do" if financially possible (e.g., outsourcing cooking or ironing when Bu Septi was focusing on children).
➡️ Eliminate activities categorized as "Dislike & Cannot Do" and those identified as procrastination triggers, limiting them to rare exceptions (e.g., streaming only on weekends or once every two months).

Key Points & Insights
➡️ The session does not conclude with a summary because participants are expected to use the provided framework immediately and discuss findings in the next session.
➡️ Everyone has time; the key is taking control of how that time is managed; only the deceased person has "no time."
➡️ To increase self-capacity, focus efforts on practicing activities one likes and is capable of within the core allotted time frame (Kandang Waktu).
