I hope this post will synthesize the ideas that I’ve discussed in the last several weeks. Because productivity is largely about identifying priorities, executing those priorities, recognizing urgency, but making time for things that aren’t necessarily urgent so they don’t…
I haven’t posted my favorite podcasts lately. So here are some thought and hopefully some wisdom. I don’t think we understand why, completely. But it is pretty clear that, if we choose the right media, we are more productive and…
The aforementioned interval timer is a great tool. But it depends on how you use it. As its essence, it is an external reminder to be mindful of the passage of time. Whether you are distracted or hyper focused, the…
