Ten Productive Questions

How Does My Day Look Like?

Listen Later

When we intentionally create order and structure around what is going on around us on a daily basis, true productivity happens. With the many distractions around us, especially our social media apps, we tend to find ourselves all over the place not knowing where to start and without accomplishing our tasks.

In order for us to stay focused and have clarity with our routine, there needs to be a structure and we can only have that when we have a schedule. And we start by looking at what your day looks like. It looks simple right, but in reality, it is easier said than done. In this third episode of the Ten Productive Questions podcast, Christian Alan Vibar and David Angway take us closer to the realities that we need to reconcile within ourselves. Make sure you pay attention to the entire podcast and better yet, take down notes.
