On this episode of the podcast, I spoke with Carl Pullein. Carl is a personal productivity specialist, presenter and author of Your Digital Life and Working With Todoist: The Book. We spoke about the term âproductivity,â how to get the most out of applications and more. Here are a few highlights from the show:
What productivity means
Why itâs so important to capture quickly
How culture affects perspective and productivity
What âhard edgesâ are and why itâs so important to productivity
Using tools for their designed purpose
The problem with having too many choices
Why it can be great to stick with one app that has a specific purpose
Why approach is more important than application
We tend to overcomplicate applications
