Mindsets seem to be the macro filter that guide the rest of our actions. You can’t be productive if your mindset is all set for a lazy day.

Hi Nathan, he he ha ha.

The trick for me to survive through the lists and accomplish more with less is weed out unimportant things and then just delete it.
I delete a lot, so what’s left is very few action items that gets me REAL results – the accomplishments. And that is why my recycle bin explodes too often

Hi Nancy, duct tape can do anything. I’ll definitely check out Steve’s book.

Hi Pearl, it does look like a great resource. A whole package of good stuff. Maybe I can do a review on it because the price tag is a little steep.

Hi Stacey, following the heart instead of the mind is a great way of putting it. When we take the time to do what feels good instead of being a big bully we can actually be more productive. We just need to make sure we keep doing tasks that help us accomplish great work.

As for productivity. I find I feel most productive on days when I follow my heart rather than my mind. I can recall a recent Saturday – I woke early, meditated, enjoyed a workout, some yoga, cleaned a bit around the house, did some writing, took a nap, worked on my jigsaw puzzle. I ended that day feeling incredibly satisfied with how I spent my time. I was guided my my heart, values, beliefs and the things I wanted to do, not what I thought I should do…like fix a ripped pillow (if I may borrow your example).

I’m on track to feel that way again today!

Nathan
