What we do have however is a box of tools and plenty of knowledge that we’re not even tapping into.
The difference between someone who can seem to move mountains and you is knowing how to maximize productivity.
While we currently have an excellent 30 day program that has helped thousands of people see remarkable results, today’s episode is actually going to really keep it simple for you. It won’t be as advanced as the program, but it will help you get the very basics down getting stuff done.

Let’s dive in and get focused on the 4 W’s of Productivity:
- Who are you most productive when you’re around?
When you are working with this person it’s almost as if all the stars have aligned and you’re absolutely unstoppable. The energy, focus, and action just oozes from your fingers to your toes! - When are you most productive?
Some people believe the early bird gets the worm, but others say it’s all about burning the midnight oil. Do you crank out the max work flow in the morning, midday, or night?

- Where are you most productive?
Whether it’s at Starbucks, around your team, hiding out in your office, or the comfort of your own home, what environment do you find to be the best for you to ‘get in the zone’? - What projects allow you to be the most productive?
For some crunching numbers makes them weak in the knees, for others it makes them weak in the stomach. Whatever it is, find the projects that you not only love to do, but you feel energized to start and complete. Make sure you able to work on them throughout the day and week to really see and feel max progress.
Take these answers and really focus on ways to align them to maximize your productivity.
If you’re not sure the answer, work backwards. The more answers the better to help eliminate distractions and productivity killers:
- Who are you NOT productive around?
- When are you least productive?
- Where are you least productive?
- What projects drain all your energy, focus, and productivity?
Now that you know what productivity kills exists in your life, eliminate them asap. If that’s not possible, it’s time to start doing some serious cleanup. Perhaps that means leveraging out some jobs or tasks to others who do thrive in that environment at that time, with those people, on that project.
Sometimes the important stuff isn’t the easiest stuff. Make a decision to get creative and figure out a way to make those 4W’s align.
