Do you feel like your to-do list never gets done? Do you strive to be focused and productive, but never seem to get your head above water? You might be working with a broken productivity system, or worse- no system at all. What if there was a way to outsource anything and everything that you don’t personally need to do?
Well, it turns out there is! On today’s show, I interview world-renowned productivity expert Ari Meisel. Ari shares a host of various apps, techniques and hacks you can use to deal with some of the tedious day-to-day tasks & minutiae that tend to bog us down so that we can be our best, happiest and most productive selves.
Ari Meisel is an achievement Architect, Author, Speaker, and Teacher. He launched his speaking career with a TEDx talk in 2008. Since then, he has spoken to thousands of high-end executives in all industries showing how they can recline their time so that they can live more. He teaches personal and organizational productivity, health and wellness, entrepreneurship, biohacking and human performance. Ari has developed a fantastic system of productivity and a book called Less Doing More Living, which is broken down in 9 fundamentals. He’s also the host of one of my favorite podcasts called Less Doing.
Enjoy a more productive you, and share share this show with someone who needs it.
Blessings to you and yours,
Luke Storey
