July 08, 2025 Ep 4: Why Adaptability Is Your Hidden Productivity Power
You start the day focused. But then… chaos. A sick child, crashed Wi-Fi, or an urgent work crisis. Suddenly, your to-do list doesn’t matter anymore.
If that sounds familiar, this episode is for you.
In this episode of Making the Shift, I talk about how adaptability, not control, is the real key to sustainable productivity. You’ll learn how to use a 3-step mental model called The Adaptivity Loop to respond calmly and effectively when your plans fall apart.
Because life is unpredictable. But your ability to adapt? That’s the power that keeps you moving forward.
