About this episode
We live in a culture obsessed with maximizing personal productivity and we dream about a 4-hour work week but, we’re also a culture that wastes, on average, 32 hours a month in meetings deemed “a waste of time” and use busyness as a status symbol. In our quest to be more productive, we seem more distracted than ever before. Learn why motivation is really the answer to getting more done and three actionable tips you can implement today to increase your productivity.
