## Resource

In this episode of Virtus in Action , Genaro Torres explores a quiet but powerful trap: postponing what is important but not urgent . Inspired by the ideas of leadership thinker Marshall Goldsmith , this conversation challenges a common illusion—the belief that tomorrow will somehow be calmer than today. The truth is that urgent matters always demand attention, while the most meaningful things in life—health, relationships, personal growth, and strategic thinking—often get postponed because they don’t shout for attention. Your dreams live in that space of the important but not urgent , and without intentional scheduling, they remain only good intentions. Genaro shares practical insights on how to break this cycle, protect time for what truly matters, and move from wishful thinking to disciplined action. Because the urgent will always find you… but the important requires your decision. Genaro Torres GTC Leaders — gtcleaders.com LinkedIn: @genaro-torres
