The Wholistic Productivity Podcast #11 Why We're Not Productive, Part Two
Productivity struggles often come down to two big factors: skills and time. In this episode of the Wholistic Productivity Podcast, Chris LeBrun continues the series on why we aren’t productive by exploring these two critical areas—and how you can strengthen them.
You’ll learn:
- Why the rapid pace of technology creates a constant skill gap—and how to keep learning without overwhelm
- How lack of proficiency slows you down (and why finding a who is often better than figuring out how)
- The danger of being unwilling to learn new ways of working—and how that stubbornness can sabotage progress
- Classic time management pitfalls, from unclear priorities to overscheduling, and how to fix them
- Practical strategies like Sunday Strategy planning, time blocking, and building margin into your schedule so unexpected challenges don’t derail you
If motivation and organization are the foundation of productivity, then skills and time management are the framework that help you thrive. Master these, and you’ll free yourself to focus on what matters most.
🎧 Listen now to learn how to close your skill gaps, take control of your time, and create the balance you need to dream big, plan smart, and live fully.
