<p>Support the author and consider buying their book HERE: <a href="https://amzn.to/3FkoUTd">https://amzn.to/3FkoUTd</a> <br> <br> Cheapest place you can buy this book (at time of writing) AND quick to deliver, both of which agree with my ethos, a 'Humming' productive life should be accessible to everyone. As an Amazon Associate, I also get something little from Amazon when you purchase from this special link. It's not much (4%, which is like 40c on a $10 book) and costs my listeners nothing, but powers me enough to continue to deliver the best possible content. Deepest thanks... if only you can just see how grateful I am right now :) I feel financially silly for saying this, but you can, of course, even borrow from your local library! Or just buy a cheap copy for yourself for now and maybe pay it forward to someone else whom you think might benefit. Good things become better when shared, right?<br> <br> Transcript*:<br> Let’s face it. You have 8 hours in your workday. Are you productive throughout the whole 8 hours? Unless you’re superhuman, I’m going to put my money that no, you’re not. At best, like most people, you’re good at the beginning until maybe 1 pm and your motivation falls off the cliff.<br> <br> Try the Pomodoro technique to push yourself beyond 1 pm and get more shit done. Something I picked up from a book called the Pomodoro Technique by Francesco Cirillo <br> <br> It’s got nothing to do with Pomodoro for tomato. Invented by what I’d consider an Italian genius with practicality in mind, you can maintain your energy, willpower, motivation (whatever you might call it) if you do you work at 25min sprints and, rest for 5. Repeat. <br> <br> For me? I’ve definitely lasted beyond 1 pm, maybe 4-ish pm. While it did slow beyond 1 pm (because after all, we’re all human), I’ve gotten more shit done and I still have the energy to play with my son at the end of the workday. Give it a try today, but I'd say try it with a timer as I have with my Fitbit watch. If you’re a little over 25 or less, that's ok. You're human. Either way, you will get more shit done. Now, let’s hustle the day with a bit of Pomodoro and get shit done together.</p> <p><br> Disclaimer:<br> *This podcast episode is intended to be a very short summary of mentioned books and an analysis of my personal experience with their thought content- not a replacement for the original work.

Good things become better when shared, right?<br> <br> Transcript*:<br> Work hard and play hard.<br> <br> I would agree except we go through wear and tear - we play too hard, get too tired and probably rather stay home and enjoy Netflix before dozing off to sleep within 15min of the movie starting.<br> <br> If you want to last a little longer, as Stephen Covey says in his book 7 habits of highly effective people, don't forget to 'sharpen the saw'. Sharpen yourself physically, spiritually, mentally, and socially.<br> <br> I sharpen the saw throughout my day. It's ever more important for me as a dad in his 30s with a demanding child. What do I do? I have what some would call a weird routine I must do every half-hour to sharpen the saw. I work hard for 25min while listening to soothing piano on Spotify and then mix it with 5min of exercise. I finish my workday strictly at 4:30 to go for walking meditation for 30min so I can then be most present with my son when I pick him up from school from 5. Does it work? Well, put it this way. it's 6:34 pm and I still have the energy to play hard with my energy-demanding boy.<br> <br> Work hard. Sharpen the saw. Play hard.</p> <p><br> Disclaimer:<br> *This podcast episode is intended to be a very short summary of mentioned books and an analysis of my personal experience with their thought content- not a replacement for the original work.

Good things become better when shared, right?<br> <br> Transcript*:<br> Think about your last video meeting where they're not actually 'video' meetings with moving faces but rather meetings with frozen faces or the stick figure's face?<br> <br> It's hardly engaging, right? Now, we've all been told that we should seek first to understand, then to be understood, wisdom shared by the legendary Stephen Covey. But how can we, when we can't see them and read their body cues? I think, in today's new reality of zoom meetings, Stephen's quote should be now prefixed with show you want to understand, then seek first to understand, then to be understood.<br> <br> In a recent experiment with video conferences, I tried having my video on even if I'm not in the most flattering clothes, curiously messaged in questions about what they've said, using emojis to give my words dimension, and reacting to meetings with heart emoji here and there. While it's not the same, doing everything I can and show I want to understand has given me an edge. It's almost like permission if you will, where I can later reach out easily to understand more, and I could be understood.<br> <br> Give it a try. experiment and let me know how it's working for you.</p> <p><br> Disclaimer:<br> *This podcast episode is intended to be a very short summary of mentioned books and an analysis of my personal experience with their thought content- not a replacement for the original work.
