There is a common belief that you shouldn’t compare yourself to others. Instead, you should compare your current self to your self in the past. This belief is one of the obstacles holding people from thinking out of the box. More in the episode.
There are people who hate tomato juice, and there are others (like me) who love it. Similarly, some people love sweet potatoes, and some (like me) don’t. This is the case for everything from books to websites and politicians to Hollywood stars. We, humans, have different tastes. Whatever you create, there will be people who love it, hate it, or just don’t care about it. Here is my strategy to deal with haters and negative criticism.
Let’s say you want to change your career. You’ve been working as an accountant, but you are not happy with your profession. You want to be an actor. You want to move from corporate life to the entertainment industry. Once you talk to people about your plan, you will probably get two types of feedback. More in the episode.
If months and even years have passed, but you still haven’t started working on your big idea, it’s time to take three days off. I explain the strategy in the episode.
Your comfort zone is your challenge. Run away from it as soon as you get a chance. Getting used to your comfort zone is one of the biggest obstacles on your way to accomplishing your dreams. More in the episode.
Seriously, it’s okay to leave things unfinished. Unlike what your parents or elementary school teacher may have said, you don’t have to finish what you started. You also don’t have to start from the beginning. More in the episode.
We all receive dozens of emails every day. You may skim through the new emails while waiting for your coffee at Starbucks or filling the tank at a gas station. Oftentimes, you will come across an email that will require your attention, but you don’t have time to take that action at the moment. When this happens, the majority of people think, “Oh, I should get back to this email later.” which never happens. I explain the solution in this episode
I have a friend who had about 30 thousand unread emails in her inbox. One morning, she called me. She actually woke me up. She was very frustrated because her website was down and her business was losing money. Guess why...
Would you consider yourself successful if the startup company you built from scratch was acquired by a tech giant for 10 million dollars? More in the episode.
I can’t comprehend how Mercury, Mars, or any other planet has a role in the decisions we make. More in the episode.
Imagine… You are in a hospital bed. The heart rate monitor regularly beeps to indicate that you are still holding onto life despite that terminal disease... I will explain how this exercise helps with productivity.
You don’t have to go to the gym every day unless the shape and strength of your body make you a living.The approach is the same for other daily activities. You don’t have to watch the news, cook, or walk your dog every day. More in the episode.
Before I tell you the ultimate productivity hack that will allow you to get every project done in the shortest amount of time, I will tell you what not to do: Please do not plan every minute of your day. More in the episode.
Is it good to have a to-do list? No. Please don’t create a to-do list. You might be saying, “Are you kidding me? Why do you suggest not having a to-do list? I thought they were useful?” I am not kidding. To-do lists don’t work. In this episode, I explain why.
I can hear you creating a million excuses for not starting that thing you have had in your mind for a long time. What is it? Building a website for your photography portfolio? Writing a poem? Applying for a new job? Recording a social media video for that brilliant idea? Making a song? Painting your dog’s portrait? Whatever it is… When there is something new we want to do, we unconsciously start making excuses to postpone it. I explain my tested way to stop postponing in this episode.
I am starting a 24-episode productivity series. I converted my YouTube videos to audio files, so please ignore it when I say "this video" :)Feel free to skip this episode if you are part of a Royal Family in any country. Otherwise, I have to remind you that you are not a prince or princess. The change starts by accepting where you are in life right now. Many people live in a bubble that is comfortable for them. They think this is the best they could get in life. Even worse, some people think their dreams will come true naturally. There is even another level: Some folks have too much pride that makes them think they are a star that everyone envies. Let’s face the reality in this episode.
