Turn Inaction into Action with The Ready Retreat Workbooks

The blog has been dark over the weekend as I traveled and prepared for today’s panel discussion at New Media Expo in Las Vegas. I’m excited to be part of the Productivity Power Panel, featuring Craig Jarrow (Time Management Ninja), Brett Kelly (author of Evernote Essentials), and Leo Widrich (Buffer). Those of you that can’t […]

3 Things for the Next 3 Days

While I often suggest that you shouldn’t start your new year as of January 1st (in fact, I’ve written a book that suggests that you should start it anytime you want), I do think that January is a month where reflection and recharging is in order. With that in mind, here are 3 things a

The 2012 Persons of Internet

Every year since I started this blog, I’ve been naming several people every year as my Persons of Internet. These are people who have made a strong impact on me during the year (Persons of Internet is a play on Person of Interest, after all), and also people who I expect to see and hear

A Case for Getting Personal with Productivity

Productivity is a very personal topic for me. At times it has gotten too personal, but that has helped me develop such a close understanding with the art and craft of personal productivity. It’s what has helped me become a productivityist. Task management apps have simply helped me along the way. Now I’ve made no

The 2012 Productivityist Holiday Gift Guide

We’re almost two weeks away from Christmas, and now’s the time where we’re racking our brains trying to figure out what to get that particular person that’s on your list who is difficult to shop for each and every year. Well, if this person is a productivityist — or at least needs to look at

A Productivity Podcast Revisited

Today is the Canadian National Day of Podcasting, so in recognition of that I’ve gone and done something with today’s post that was inspired by something that fellow 70Decibels host Stephen Hackett did over at his blog: I’m presenting the entire history of my retired solo podcast ProductiVardy. Below you’ll find all of the episodes

The Black Friday Plan for The Productivityist

To be honest, I don’t really do Black Fridays. I’ll probably do this today instead. But I do prepare throughout the year and set myself up for gift-giving success in the process. The key for me just isn’t preparation, it’s a mindset of consistency that starts on December 26 and lasts for nearly another 365

Postbox: A Powerful Cross-Platform Email Client [Review]

It turns out that when I decided to search for a new e-mail app of choice, that Postbox won out. But I neglected to go into deeper details as to why this was the app I went with. So, to give you a better idea why Postbox isn’t just right for me but also might

The Search for My New Email App of Choice: The Winner

A couple of weeks back I started my search for a new email app of choice. I had several options I was weighing: Notify Postbox MailPlane MailMate Mail.app After spending some time with each app (and some somewhat wasted time with one of these apps since it has been discontinued), I’ve rendered my decision…

The Apps on My Launch Center Pro Wish List

I’ve been using Launch Center Pro like a madman since it came out. Unlike Brett Terpstra, I’ve gone a step ufrhter and created a folder that holds all of the apps that are launchable and put it on the last page of my iPhone. And despite David Barnard’s post that may have hinted at the
