“So tell me a time you failed at something?” This is a common question you may tried not to roll your eyes at when you were asked this during an interview.

While going paperless seems to be the ongoing trend of being productive, it’s still beneficial for that to exist. I use both a journal and note taking software to be on top of things where ever I go. With a phone in your pocket, a computer on your coffee table, you’re always within reach your calendar and to do list. […]

I’m going to be talking about the things mediocre people do, think, and feel.

If there’s one important resource in our life it’s time: Makes sense, there’s only a finite amount so we have to make best of it. Say you got a full time job that easily goes over 40 hrs/wk, a profitable side business, and hobbies that could also be profitable. Not to mention if you got a spouse and kids, it’s […]

What do you want to be when you grow up? As children, we were always asked this question, and we used to think that getting what we want is as simple as wanting it. As adults, we realize that it isn’t as simple as that. We have to make decisions, stand by them, and work hard to get what we […]

Employees are more aware of productivity too. Considering everything that happens in our lives, it only makes sense to maximize our limited time and energy. Like with all my past episodes, […]

There’s quite a difference between being productive and being busy. The thing about being busy is that it can feel productive because it’s familiar and makes us feel good. In order to get results, productivity may need to for go any positive feeling. By doing things we have to do – and that means less busy work. does it make […]

If you got a gym, I’m sure you’ll see someone is really strong because he or she can move a lot of weight.

Why getting fired was the best thing that happened to me.   – “You’re a nice guy, and a good leader, but we’re letting you go”.   – “I don’t think you’re a good fit because you’re too much of a Hilton guy, so we’re going in another direction”.   – “The owner doesn’t think you’ve done a good job […]

Most define success by our bank account, or family, or accomplishing goals. This is standard in what we want to do with our life. It’s what a lot of people would consider the point of life.

People like Einstein has said a lot of great things like the theory of relativity. But one of the lesser known is about creating.
