Description

Accomplishing More by Managing Your Time, Attention, and Energy

It’s a common refrain: “If I only I had more hours in the day, I’d be able to get everything done.” But since finding more hours isn’t an option, we search for ways to be more productive—to better use our limited time to not only complete our required tasks but also accomplish our loftier goals.

Chris Bailey, author of “The Productivity Project,” spent a year of his life conducting productivity experiments on himself in order to discover the secrets to living the most productive life possible. He’ll share his most insightful lessons on how to work deliberately rather than reactively, manage your energy better, avoid excessive procrastination and have more time to do what you find meaningful in life.

In this class, you’ll learn how to:

Slow down and work more deliberately.
Shrink or eliminate the unimportant from your life.
Focus on your highest-leverage tasks that give you the greatest return.
Schedule less time for important tasks.
Distract yourself from inevitable distractions.
Develop productive procrastination.
Use a healthy diet, sleep and exercise to be more productive.
Strive for imperfection.
Form good habits so your productivity is automatic.
Motivate yourself by understanding why you want to get something done.

Instructor's Courses

When Chris Bailey graduated University, he received two full-time job offers, but decided to decline them both to dedicate a full year of his life to exploring his weird passion: productivity. For a full year he did anything and everything to become more productive. That included conducting dozens of productivity experiments on himself, like living in total isolation for 10 days, only using his smartphone for an hour a day, waking up at 5:30am every morning, and working 90-hour weeks. Over his project and over the last decade, Chris Bailey has researched and experimented with every productivity technique under the sun to discover what works and what doesn’t. His work has received national and international media attention from outlets like The New York Times, Lifehacker, Fast Company, Fortune, New York Magazine, and countless others. Every month his work is read by about 200,000 people from almost every country around the world, and in a recent interview, the prestigious TED Talks blog said that he “might be the most productive man you’d ever hope to meet.” You can read Bailey’s work at ALifeofProductivity.com. Bailey is on a mission to share the lessons of his year-long journey both with his new book, The Productivity Project, and in his lectures, where he offers and insights and best practices that will help everyone from college students to CEOs accomplish more.
