Lifehacker is a great site. The bulk of its content can directly improve your daily productivity. A lot of it is quite technical, in terms of how to use technology to be productive, but there’s plenty of “general interest” discussions as well. I think our Ultimate Guide to Productivity would do the Lifehacker team and […]

Are you a super productive person? Do you slice through to-do lists like a crazed ninja? How do you do it? ploop has a very nice little diagram showing his “zone of productivity.” And don’t worry it’s kid friendly. We all struggle with too much work and too little time, and while some of us […]
The Secret To Being Productive
Um…how should I know? Luckily, I don’t have to know all the answers. All I had to do was ask everyone else for their productivity tips and let the magic happen. On Tuesday, April 24th I launched the Ultimate Guide to Productivity Group Writing Project. The idea is simple (and on-going, so feel free to […]
