What you'll learn

  • Describe the power of a schedule in helping you organize your day to focus on important tasks, and explain how simply getting started can be the key to tackling your biggest to-do items.
  • Explain how accountability partners and systems can help you avoid blame and shame and instead learn how you spend your time, and how to improve it.
  • Describe how practicing forgiveness for your coworkers and having a short memory for your own mistakes can not only improve productivity, but also provide a wealth of health benefits.
  • Master the “Graceful No” to help you clarify priorities and focus on productivity over being busy.
  • Describe how decluttering your workspace and minimizing distractions can create a productive work environment, and how automating some of your decisions can limit Decision Fatigue.
  • Reframe the stories you tell yourself about failures and setbacks so they stop holding you back and instead help you move forward.
  • Explain how to make the most of your time spent on communications like email, and how small changes can make for better, more productive meetings.
  • Describe how perfectionism is often due to fear of failure, and how embracing “good enough” can actually lead to better results.
