Productivity 101

This week has been such a productive week! It’s true that a Sunday well spent brings a week of content 🙂

I’ve been focusing on productivity and checking off my to-dos; not easy when the day is jam-packed with meetings and new jobs.

A few podcasts I’ve been enjoying:
-Any podcasts with David Allen talking about his method (and book), Getting Things Done – great tips: if something takes less than two mintues, just do it (don’t add it to your to-do list), write everything down, define your action steps and take action! By writing things down, we free up mental bandwith so we can be more creative – I love this!! And I feel like it works!
-The Entre Leadership Podcast – really great discussions about how to improve our performance at work
-Enwaken Radio – ok, I feel a little cheesy recommending this one, and some of the episodes are cheesy, but they have good food for thought. It’s described as the “source for waking up and thriving in life”. One of my big takeaways for the week is trying to be more aware and present in daily life.

These web sites have inspired me too:
Mind Tools – cool resource for productivity, with different ways to approach problems and projects
Life Hack – a kind of empowerment blog for all areas of your life

I’m finding that activity breeds more activity…and when it comes to thinking things through and getting things done with purpose, that’s a good thing.
