#13 Productivity with ME (Joshua C Liston)




Braver By The Day: Habit Change, Persistence, and Grit show

Summary: #BBTD Podcast Episode #13: Productivity with ME, myself and I [ Habit Change | Grit | Health | Fitness | Mindset | Creativity | Productivity ] 5 Ways To Get More Done: Make a must-do list in your phone and take a screen-grab and save it as both your background image and lock-screen image (you will see it a few times per day - believe me, ha) When first putting ideas down on paper don't fuss at all about spelling, grammar, neatness or anything outside of getting the idea down as quickly and as organically as possible (I call this the A3 Paper and a Big Texta technique) Choose 2 trackable metrics and record your findings in an App such as Evernote - work on one habit at a time and one set of comparable metrics at a time (for example White Carb Intake vs Weight Gain/Loss - all recorded in an App such as Evernote for iOS) The 85% solution! Unless you're building jet planes or pace-makers 85% finished and happening is far better than 0% and not happening. If you find yourself not doing something because you don't think you can execute with 100% perfection remember the 85% solution ;) Try unsubscribing from one mailing list per week! The rule I use is as follows: If I haven't opened an email from a given list in more than 90 days I remove myself from the list.
