In the latest issue of the Productivityist Newsletter (which you can view here), I discussed how I was taking things to the next level. I’m in the midst of making some big changes here at Productivityist, but I’m also in the midst of working on several projects. And I’m working on them all at once. […]
There’s a reason I keep a folder called “Travel” on my iPhone. I like the ability to move it to the home screen, which is usually bereft of folders, whenever I go on a long trip away from home. I like that there are certain apps that resonate more with my on the road than
I’m writing this as I prepare to head off on a week-long business trip, and it’s the first thing I’ve really written in the week leading up to this point. I’m not going to suggest that it hasn’t bothered me that I haven’t written in a while — it has. But it hasn’t bothered me

In the third part of this four part series, I discuss what happened during the final two weeks I worked with my new virtual assistant.

This results in slower than desired improvements in what we need to do and, more importantly, what we really want to do. Here are three things that
Note: I’m nearing the end of my virtual assistant experiment, but I’m taking a break from sharing my results this week so I can have more data next week. We can’t do it alone. Even if we’re working independently, we need help in some form or another. That help doesn’t necessarily have to come from
