Looking at 2Do as an OmniFocus Replacement
by
While we all need to be careful about succumbing to shiny object syndrome when it comes to applications and workflows, but there is often something to learn from them. Case in point is my experience with 2Do as I was trying out SetApp. By default, 2Do filters out tasks that are set to start at…
The Quality of Your Life Is NOT Dependent on The Quality of Your Productivity

Stop purchasing crap
by
In a sense, marketers know us better than we know ourselves. They feed on our insecurities and feelings of inadequacy. Society hijacks our passion and directs it toward material things. But nobody gets to the end of life wishing they had bought more things. – The More of Less I’ve actually seen the quest for…
Kids are the worst clients
by
While talking with a friend recently (HI TimTim), I came across the idea that kids are the worst client.

The Big Brash Leader Lie!
by
It’s a faulty assumption that you need to be big/loud/obvious to lead an organization. This faulty assumption is brought on because that’s the story websites love. The founder that was brash, a bit harsh, and oh so brilliant. Hey, Steve Jobs. Far more of the successful teams out there are run by a quiet manager…
