Why have we been exhausted through the shutdowns? I think it's because we've all been running on fumes. Today we talk about sharpening the saw and filling the well - activities to get us back to productivity without exhaustion.

Joshua Galinato of Galiway.Blog and Lifelong Learning podcast interviewed me about productivity, burnout and deliberate living. He has been gracious in allowing me to share the interview with my audience.

Today I talk about the importance of making a daily agenda - and why writing it out is key.

Today we talk about handling the three types of distractions when working from home: pets, children and other adults.

For a long time people have been talking about the new normal. But everyone had the expectation that this is how things would be until they go back to the way they were before COVID. The thing is, I don't think they will ever go back to the same. And I wonder how much we will be able to steer it to build a better normal for ourselves. Today I'm going to do a quick podcast on what we should be thinking about as we shift once again in our lives.

COVID has completely uprooted just about everyone's lives. We're working, schooling, shopping, exercising, and socializing differently. Every aspect of our lives has been turned upside down and shaken - HARD. Three months ago life balance meant a completely different thing. Today we'll take a look at the new balance - and I'm not talking about shoes. Today we will look at the three types of boundaries that made it easier to have a balanced life, and how to apply them to the new normal.

We have a lot of information coming at us these days. And the fewer spots you have to fetch that information from means the more time you will have for other things. Today we're going to look at what your collection points are, and how to minimize them.
