Today’s episode is dedicated to the topic of efficiency. Now, before you tune out and say, “Oh, my God, she talks about Crushing Chaos all the time! Do we really have to go there again?”I'm not going to go there on my own. 

 

I brought in a special guest who is a productivity coach. I learned about the role of a Productivity Coach some time ago. When Mridu, our special guest, approached me and we talked about her coming on the show, I was really intrigued by her particular perspective! Stay tuned because she has a simple and easy framework that we're going to end the show with!



In this episode we discuss:

  • Seeing positive changes by taking control of demands and distractions at home and at work.
  • Recognizing that willpower alone as a superpower isn’t enough to get it all done.
  • Developing the non-negotiable habit of a Professional Power Hour to begin your day.
  • Building back your confidence by being organized and productive in small chunks of time. 
  • Putting timeframes and being realistic about what can get done on the To-Do List each day.
  • The power in controlling your thoughts.
  • Intentionally scheduling buffer time to prepare or de-stress before or after a meeting.
  • Applying a 4-Step framework to successfully identify, schedule, systematize and complete a task or project.
