So you want to be more productive, huh? I think I have just the guy for you. Each day, Craig Ballantyne gets things done—a lot of things. And he helps others do the same. In fact, he literally wrote the book on being productive in The Perfect Day Formula: How to Own the Day and Control Your Life.

Craig also finds time to provide business- and life-coaching to entrepreneurs around the country, and today you’ll get great tips from him on simple, actionable ways to make the most of each day!
