The work ‘Productivity’ is not something I like to use, not because I don’t think people should be productive, but I think it’s being overused and for the wrong reasons.

When I’m using an app, or better still, when I’m searching for an app to use, I always look for that killer feature. Now don’t get me wrong, I always figure out what I need the app for first, but if there were one or two (or three) to choose from, I always go with the one that has a killer feature!

There is this tendency to just work, work, work and not step back to understand why we're working 27 hours a day! I put this down to not improving the steps you take to run your business efficiently or anything else for that matter. Improving your workflow and the way your business operates can and will help you iron out the issues and make things better in the long run.

Simple answer: YES! Today, I did some research on how others did their workshops online, and I was amazed! It's so simple, so 'virtual' and I learned a BUNCH of stuff on topics I was interested in. I'm planning to do a virtual workshop, so I'd love to know If you'd be interested in a Tech Minimalism Workshop.

I often hear from my clients that adding yet another subscription to use a tool for their business is getting to a tipping point, and to an extent, I agree. However, what they don’t think bout is how much time they waste by tot choosing the right app or service. As I said, you get what you pay for, and if you want smoother and less friction when working with your clients, then it’s time to think more about how the tools are going to help you rather than the cost.

If you’re working in your business and find you have no time for anything other than client work, then you might need to start thinking about working on your business. We often forget why we became freelancers or business owners.

We did it because we wanted more time for ourselves. However, this has gone by the wayside due to working all the hours given to us. I believe the main reason for this is the lack of workflows and systems to help you auto-magically!

Both Basecamp and Notion are amazing apps. However, they do things quite differently, and if you're thinking between the two, I know what I would choose. With today's rush for working remotely, we don't have the time to 'play' with tools and apps. We need to get a tool that works for up out of the box. In today's episode, I do a quick walkthrough of what I think is the best choice.

Overcoming your fears is not an easy thing to do, but there are always people who can help you with whatever you’re fighting with. Recently we have all been pretty much confined to our homes. However, we still need to work.

Remote work is a massive deal at the moment, but some are finding it hard to do video calls due to not being comfortable being in front of a camera, for one reason or another. The one person I know who can help is Rudi Goldman. Go check out his website, and maybe he can help you too.

A few weeks ago, I made a 'Reset' video going through and resetting my tools and the apps I use to run my business.

But with the crisis at the moment, I started thinking more about my personal life, and the quote I use for my business; How much is enough?

In this episode, I talk about how I started thinking that less is definitely more in terms of what you need to live, and maybe it’s time we all start thinking about 'How much is enough?'

 Online courses and 'help' articles are all over the internet. However, they don't always help (at least 99% of them) are virtual ’stings’ to sell you something else.

If you want to sell a product, sell it, don’t hide behind the 'help' article or post saying you want to help people when all you’re doing is just selling your product.
