How to Boost Your Productivity

I really don't like the title of this week's episode because we're talking about so much more...

First of all, we bust a few productivity-boosting myths: like you should do the (apparently) important things first or you should do the task you'd prefer not to have to do at all before you do anything else; like you should have a "To Do List" or have a plan or, God help us, an Action Plan; like multi-tasking, otherwise known to cognitive psychology as trying to half do a load of things badly simultaneously. Ah... Myths!

More importantly, this episode provides you with a step-by-step Blueprint that will boost an awful lot more than your productivity.

Because, essentially, we're talking about focus and flow in this episode. And we're talking about the importance of focus and flow in everything - focus is not just a work thing, obviously.

Allied to that Blueprint is an exploration of "compartmentalisation" - actually another aspect or attribute of Flow.

In short, this episode is longer than usual (bit of a paradox there!) because there's so much in it - so much that will change your life.
