Today I’m tackling a subject which I think every one of us faces at least every now and again. It’s one of a series of episodes where I TELL IT LIKE IT IS. The SERIES 1 TIMEWASTERS episode was in the same vein and hugely popular and generated a lot of activity on social media and I suspect that my episode of a few weeks ago – COLLABO-HATERS will go down just as well. Today I will be talking about all different forms of TOXIC people, advising you how to SPOT them, how to AVOID them and how to get rid of them.
For a full transcript of this episode please go to the official website https://www.filmproproductivity.com/
 
Quotes:
“Toxic people attach themselves like cinder blocks tied to your ankles, and then invite you for a swim in their poisoned waters.” I found that quote on Tumblr and it’s by John Mark Green.
“An energy vampire can never “steal” energy from us unless we consciously or unconsciously permit them to.” ― Mateo Sol
“Just because some people are fuelled by drama doesn't mean you have to attend the performance.”  - Personal coach Cheryl Richardson
“Manipulators use diversion tactics such as, not giving a straight answer or steering the conversation to another topic.” - Author, Sarah Nielsen
"Watch out for those types who deliberately tear other people down. One day, they will tear you down too," cautions writer Nurjean Chaneco.

On this week’s show, I talk about RUMINATING. I mentioned it in passing on THE INNER CRITIC episode 6 but I expand on it here and offer solutions. Rumination can take over your mind, kill your creativity, bring you down, make you paranoid and kill your love for life. It’s a nasty, nasty piece of work.

“I’m tired of being inside my head. I want to live out here, with you” - author Colleen McCarty

This week I’ll be talking about another topic which every one of us likely suffers from, from time to time - PROCRASTINATION. We’ll look at what it is and its causes and list a few techniques and tricks that can be used to burn it to the ground and let you move forward with what you have to do.

On today’s show, I will be talking about a subject that no one ever seems to discuss but it’s one that creatives have to endure perhaps more often than most. Whereas I can admit that sometimes collaborating on a venture can be awesome, there are times when it just ISN’T a good idea for productivity or for your sanity or career or goals or bank balance to do so. I’ll also discuss specific types of collaborator that you MUST learn to avoid.
For a full transcript of this episode please go to the official website https://www.filmproproductivity.com/
 
Quotes:
“When I was a kid, there was no collaboration; it's you with a camera bossing your friends around. But as an adult, filmmaking is all about appreciating the talents of the people you surround yourself with and knowing you could never have made any of these films by yourself.” - Steven Spielberg
Harry Truman once said that "It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit."
James McAvoy - “Filmmaking is a miracle of collaboration.”
Indian spiritual master, Amit Ray - “Collaboration has no hierarchy. The Sun collaborates with soil to bring flowers on the earth."

Today we’ll be delving into a business productivity system called the 4 DISCIPLINES OF EXECUTION aka the 4DX which I believe will be applicable to the world of creatives like film pros.
For a full transcript of this episode please go to the official website https://www.filmproproductivity.com/
 
Quotes:
“Stay focused - go after your dreams and keep moving toward your goals.” - LL Cool J
The book THE FOUR DISCIPLINES OF EXECUTION says “The real enemy of execution is your day job! We call it the whirlwind. It’s the massive amount of energy that’s necessary just to keep your operation going on a day‐to‐day basis; and, ironically, it’s also the thing that makes it so hard to execute anything new. The whirlwind robs from you the focus required to move your team forward.”
And it goes on to say that “The whirlwind is urgent and it acts on you and everyone working for you every minute of every day. The goals you’ve set for moving forward are important, but when urgency and importance clash, urgency will win every time."
Jim Huling says that “Execution starts with focus.” and Jim Rohn said “Discipline is the bridge between goals and accomplishment.” - Discipline #1 is THE DISCIPLINE OF FOCUS. The first discipline requires sustaining the whirlwind at its current level while you advance towards what it calls one WILDLY IMPORTANT GOAL or WIG - W.I.G. A Wildly Important Goal, it actually says one or two but let’s keep it simple –remember the more you try to get done, the lower the odds of success of each of the goals you seek to achieve.
The book says “Once you stop worrying about everything else going backwards, you can start moving forward on your WIG.”
The book also says If you ignore the urgent, it can kill you today. It’s also true, however, that if you ignore the important, it can kill you tomorrow.
Dwight D. Eisenhower said that “What is important is seldom urgent and what is urgent is seldom important.”
Author Catherine Pulsifer said “at the end of the day we are accountable to ourselves - our success is a result of what we do.
“Productivity is never an accident. It is always the result of a commitment to excellence, intelligent planning, and focused effort.” - Paul J. Meyer

Today I am going to be talking about Mental Energy and why ABOVE ALL THINGS it must be protected. I’ll talk about what it is, how to ensure it isn’t wasted and the huge difference that protecting it will make to your life.
For a full transcript of this episode please go to the official website https://www.filmproproductivity.com/
 
Quotes:
“Mental energy is the world’s hottest commodity. People are going to try to steal it, drain it, and suck it up every second you’re awake. Yet very few of us protect it. Few of us know how.” - Isaiah Hankel
“Our fatigue is often caused not by work, but by worry, frustration and resentment.” - Dale Carnegie
“Mental energy is YOUR MOST VALUABLE ASSET. Without it, you won’t have the enthusiasm, motivation, drive, and physical energy to live a full rich life. - The problem is this asset DEPRECIATES RAPIDLY every day.” - Isaiah Hankel
“Taking back your mental energy is not a cakewalk. It’s a dogfight.” Says Isaiah Hankel
“Your mental energy is going to plummet throughout the day, certainly. But that’s not a bad thing. It’s only bad if it’s being wasted on people and activities that are pivoting you away from true success. Be selective and start saving your most valuable resource—mental energy—for the best things in life, not the worst.” Isaiah Hankel
Arthur Somers Roche - “Worry is a thin stream of fear trickling through the mind. If encouraged, it cuts a channel into which all other thoughts are drained.”

Frank Lloyd Wright was quoted as saying “I know the price of success: dedication, hard work, and an unremitting devotion to the things you want to see happen.”
“If you don't drive your business, you will be driven out of business.” said the Scottish-born American founder of Forbes magazine B. C. Forbes

Hello and welcome to this preseason mini-episode of the show which continues to do well and today the figures say that it’s actually up 11.8% over the previous 14 days of downloads. I’ve been working very hard to ensure that the new season is filled with awesome, mind-expanding and motivational PRODUCTIVITY ADVICE, not just for film pros, but which is largely accessible to all.
I have been preparing  12 new episodes which will officially launch on the 24th of this month with episode 17. That show looks at what fuels our INNER DRIVE and gives us momentum.
The season will as before be released at 7pm on Sunday nights we will run right through till mid-May.
Episode 18 is called Protecting Your Mental Energy and looks specifically at how protecting that finite resource will make a vast difference to your life.
Episode 19 investigates how to act on the plans and strategies that you have put together to move forward. Many of your strategies will fall down in their execution but there are ways to combat this.
Episode 20 talks about how sometimes, collaborating with other creatives can be a complete nightmare. It details the problems that can arise and how to get around them.
Episode 21 tackles that most common of productivity problems PROCRASTINATION. It talks about what it is, why it happens and how to deal with it.
Cracking on with Episode 22 I raise a subject, not often discussed but one which can really mess up your creativity and your mental health. That episode is all about the nasty piece of work we call RUMINATION.
In Episode 23 I dive headlong into a top which is plaguing the modern age and is known as the MICROWAVE MINDSET. I’ll talk about how the fast and furious way of doing things is not always the best strategy and why slow and steady, oo err missus, wins the day.
Episode 24 is all about TOXIC PERSONALITY TYPES and is another in my very popular series of TELL IT HOW IT IS episodes. Just like my season 1 episode TIMEWASTERS and HOW TO DEAL WITH THEM and Episode 21 BAD COLLABORATORS (Which I laughingly call collabo-haters btw) shows, I’ll investigate 6 archetypes of toxic personality and give you a foolproof solution on how to deal with them.
Another popular episode from last year was my one on productivity apps. Episode 25 follows this up with a number of suggestions for browser plugins which will strengthen your productivity at absolutely no cost.
I think I’m going to change my Episode 26 topic to that of SHOOT WITH WHAT YOU’VE GOT. I’ve still to record episodes 25-28 so I reserve that right as I batch record these episodes before the season launches to ensure their delivery. At the moment it’s on my board as Jealousy, Anger and Regret, but I think that may sit better in Season 3.
Episode 27 is a follow up to the season one Episode 5 Awesome Apps to make you more productive and is called, wait for it, 5 more awesome (and mostly fee) apps to make you more productive. I didn’t know how those eps would be received but they are remarkably popular so I’ll keep on going with them.
The season will end with Episode 28 in which I think I’m going to present a good old motivational speech. Now I reserve the right to change my mind and I have a Plan B backup topic of the 16 Laws of Success. You’ll just have to wait and see.
John Green says in Paper Towns that “The pleasure isn't in doing the thing, the pleasure is in planning it.” It’s a total party here at my end making some 3 and a half hours of solo content, NOT, but I do it all for you.
Please stand by for the new season. It’ll be with you before you know it.
Mark Twain said that to succeed in life you need two things. Ignorance and Confidence. I have both in spades.
And Abraham Lincoln’s perhaps most famous quote, as I see it anyway, is “Give me six hours to chop down a tree and I will spend the first four sharpening the axe.”
I’m still sharpening the axe here, but the 1st episode of episode of season 2 will be my first swing at the tree. I hope you’ll join me by spreading the word, subscribing and leaving an awesome review.
You can follow the show on Twitter @filmproprodpod and on Facebook @filmproproductivity. You can also get in touch using the filmproproductivity.com contact page. If you have any requests for future episode topics please do drop me a line or use the speak pipe recorder on the contact page and leave me a voice mail.
I should probably end this episode by saying something positive.
I’ll use the words of Lyndon B. Johnson
“Yesterday is not ours to recover, but tomorrow is ours to win or lose.”
Now take control of your own destiny, keep on shootin’, get your productivity socks on and stand by for Season 2, of film pro productivity!
