Time, productivity and stress are key issues that affect our work. Get it right, and you'll be in flow, productive and happier. However, poor time management means reduced efficiency, increased stress and takes us in the wrong direction.With my guest, Matt Pattison, we discuss these challenges and areas to provide insights and answers. Using Matt's skillset of design thinking, combined with my knowledge of psychology and human behaviour, we endeavour to give you practical steps to take away and apply.The main points you'll learn are:Design is a way of thinking and seeing the world and you can apply it in your world and work to.Connection - real world connection with other people.Human behaviour - reactions, responses and we are influenced by our mind and our environment. Working with both will positively impact you.Design your day - it's your life and your calendar so design it in a way that is aligned to your natural body's needs. Stress - it's how we respond to stressors that is vital. Understand yourself and your needs and how you respond to events.Matt Pattison BIOMatt's eclectic career has taken him from clinician to researcher, designer to film maker.

Growing up, I wrote a self-development list at the age of seven, believing that it contained everything I needed to do to fit in. Over the years, I managed to check off many items from that list, but despite my efforts, I didn't feel like much had changed on the inside. I went on a quest to answer the many questions I had about myself, the mind, and the whole experience of life. This journey has taken me to many places, from self-help to therapy, philosophy to yoga, psychology to performance coaching.Through my experiences, I've learned that our beliefs, emotions, lifestyle, and physicality are all interconnected with the story we hold about ourselves. And the good news is that we all have the power to change that story.As sensitive, intelligent, and motivated individuals, we all have things we want to improve about ourselves that we believe will change something fundamental. But sometimes, when our efforts to change the world around us fail, we get frustrated and stuck. The key is to recognize that our opportunity lies within ourselves.Hi, I'm Sal Jefferies, and I help people free themselves from negative beliefs and old ideas while developing a new, deep confidence in themselves. In my new podcast, Mindset, Mood, and Movement, I speak with specialists from the fields of health, psychology, movement, performance, and leaders like you. Together, we'll uncover how finding coherence between our mental, emotional, and physical wellbeing can help us move beyond anxiety, build a deep conviction, make an impact in life, business, and the world, and generally, be happier in the process.Don't miss an episode.
