How to Manage Fear of Missing Out at SXSW

Dr. Dawna Ballard has spent her career focused on time and how it relates to communication. We featured her session in one of our preview blogs about her conversation surrounding work, life balance. It only seems fitting to talk to this pro about time and how it relates to fear of missing out. The topic of conversation this morning amongst the Texas State graduate students was all about missing out on the best session or panel to see. Which is a real thing here at SXSW when sessions, panels, and experiences abound and the amount of sheer volume to see, hear, and do is intense. Check out our post all about data surrounding SX to get a sample of how many opportunities you are dealing with when it comes to content. Aside from being the most charming individual, Dr. Ballard gives us all hope on how to better align our thinking surrounding time and the fear of missing out.
