Abigail Barnes On: Turn Your Time Into P...

John R. Miles
About this episode

Do you know how to turn your time into productivity? This search for a more productive life has led to a particular miscategorization about what time management is and how it relates to productivity-- the simple truth is that it is far more than simply having a to-do list and checking this off of it. 

The most productive people do not concentrate on doing more things. This is actually the opposite of being productive. If you really want to be effective, you've got to make a point of doing the right things with your time. This starts by realizing It's Your Time.

Turn Your Time Into Productivity

Thank you for listening to the Passion Struck podcast. In this powerful interview, John R. Miles and Abigail Barnes discuss Time Management and how to use this vital resource to increase your productivity in your career and your life. 

It begs the question, why are we all so obsessed with productivity? It's probably because staying on task and avoiding distraction is more challenging to accomplish than your actual work in this digital age. Not to mention the feeling of having a productive day is somewhat euphoric. 

New Interviews with the World's GREATEST high achievers will be posted every Tuesday with a Momentum Friday inspirational message!
