TMBA 207 - Working More Doesn't Always Pay Off

A picture of an airport with airplanes parked

Back in the day, becoming productive-- for me-- meant locking myself in the house and putting the coffee maker on overdrive. We've learned since then a lot about the frameworks that empower exceptionally productive entrepreneurs, and in this episode we'll share which ones we use, which ones we've discarded, and of course, which ones we disagree on!

On the show this week:

  • The "I gotta go the airport at 5 PM principle."

  • How to categorize tasks by priority and when to work on them.

  • The (pyramid scheme-ish!) Rule of 6.

  • The most influential productivity system Ian ever implemented in the business.

  • How to center your focus to "the one thing."

People on this episode:
