The 2% with Eric Partaker

All of the great successes I’ve achieved in my career and life have been the result of time spent in the trenches fielding challenges, sometimes succeeding and sometimes failing - but always bouncing back stronger as a result. For this first episode of the podcast I reflect on some of the key moments that have changed the course of my life and give you some practical takeaways for each of them.

The average person loses 28% of their work day to multi-tasking ineffectiveness, which applied to 46 working weeks amounts to a massive 13 weeks lost every year! No wonder people feel behind and over-worked. Instead of playing the game with 4 quarters per year, they're trying to do it in 3. Now imagine if you could add back these 13 weeks? What would it do for you, your family, your team, and your company if you had a whole extra quarter? In this episode I'll show you how to do just that with one simple habit - single-tasking. 

Have you ever felt unmotivated to complete you work? Or a sense of dread when you think about certain projects or tasks? Have you ever worried that your bouts of procrastination are holding you back in life? I've felt this way too.In fact I used to think of myself as the world's #1 procrastinator. I had my successes, but they came so painfully - with far too much effort, wasted time, and all the stressed-out cramming that comes with leaving things too late. But after reading the The Now Habit by Neil Fiore I discovered a simple little phrase that changed everything for me.
