Mindful Productivity Podcast

The Simple Standard


Listen Later

Productivity is often overcomplicated. Build a giant system, find the perfect online tool, make it look appealing. There's an expansion in coming back to simplicity, an allowance that encourages us to escape the never-ending cycle of perfectionist planning and instead, lets us surface the tasks we need so we can take sustainable action.

In order to be productive we must be aware of 5 things which we'll be covering in this podcast episode, they are:

The Simple Standard is simply this:

  • What is taking up space in your mind? (Clarity)
  • What do you want to accomplish? (Outcome)
  • What are the tasks needed to reach that outcome? (Actions)
  • What kind of effort will those tasks require from you? (Energy)
  • When do you need to complete them by? (Time)

I can't wait to walk you through this process and remind you of how simple productivity can actually be.
