On Sketchnotes from Alpha Efficiency
by
So about Sketchnoting: I like to call sketchnotes notes plus because they’re just like the notes you take now, with drawings, icons, and lettering added for emphasis. The addition of visual elements help you remember ideas more clearly and make note-taking more fun. Sketchnoting is all about being in the moment and relying on your…
Getting your business to stand out
by
Jeff Brown has a great podcast on standing out. I use one of these strategies to serve his book group well by participating extensively in it. I’ve even produced audio reviews for member only. What are you doing to stand out?
Paper doesn’t just have to be words
by
Jamie Todd Rubin on Journals: One thing I love about these journals is that they are multimedia. Read the post about the British diarist made me realize that what I put into the journal doesn’t have to be exclusively writing. So there are many pages with photos I’ve taken, pasted in. I realized this week…
The “never work a day in your life” dream
by
From John Westenberg: Why wouldn’t we want to have a life without work? A life without the pressure of getting shit done, a life where we don’t have liabilities and responsibilities that demand time and bandwidth and emotional and physical and intellectual labour? It sounds like a dream come true, but it really is only…
Our Chameleon Screens
by
Steve Leveen on Well-Read Life: From what I’ve seen, our chameleon screens are distracting many of us much of the time. To actually get work done, some of us, including me, try to apply some discipline. We may try to check email only at certain times of day. We may intentionally go offline. We may…
Time Energy and Attention

Great discussion from Asian Efficiency on time energy and attention. Like today, I had the time to do a bunch of stuff but no energy due to a late night and my attention was pulled all over since my wife was out on a course. You need to make sure you have all 3 sorted…
Find your productive hours
by
The most useful method? The real “secret” to productivity? Its really quite simple…Learn when you are productive. From dadlife. I’ve never said it like that but I’ve gravitated to early mornings because those are my productive hours. After 3pm I hang out with kids and do house stuff. There isn’t much left in the tank…
Bear is now 2

Bear is now two and I recently renewed my year of membership. Bear has come to be many things for me. I don’t use like I used to use Evernote but I do use it a bunch. If you watch my YouTube channel then I’ll talk about it in the future. For now I do…
Freelance Friday 030 – Nov 2 2018
by
This week was a solid week with more iOS Productivity videos recorded. I’m seriously looking at what it means to be successful on YouTube and how I can measure that. Jason and I also announced a course we’re doing in a few weeks. It’s like a reverse Black Friday sale…it’s cheaper now than it will…
A Freelance Interview with Gaya Kessler
by
It can get lonely at times, but it helps to have a client who wants you to visit their office. In the beginning it has also quite stressful for me since I gave up the “financial security” I used to have. I put quotes around it because nobody really knows for sure if the job…
