9 Steps to Manage Your Productivity and Time Like a Pro! | Larua Vanderkam and John R. Miles
Laura Vanderkam joins me to discuss her new book Tranquility by Tuesday, where she lays out 9 steps to manage your productivity and time. Brought to you by Indeed (https://www.indeed.com/passionstruck), Amazon Pharmacy (https://www.amazon.com/passionstruck), and MasterClass (https://www.masterclass.com/passionstruck). Laura Vanderkam is the author of several time management and productivity books, including her latest book, which releases today, Tranquility by Tuesday: 9 Ways to Calm the Chaos and Make Time for What Matters. She is the host of the podcast Before Breakfast and the co-host, with Sarah Hart-Unger, of the podcast Best of Both Worlds. Laura and I discuss why everyone needs to recognize that you have some identity that is apart from work and apart from family. And we've put a lot of effort into work and family. They require a lot of responsibility and very meaningful things, but they take a lot of energy. And how do we get energy? She challenges people to take one night for you one night a week or the equivalent number of weekend hours. Do something that is not work. That is not family that you personally find fun. --► Purchase Tranquility by Tuesday: https://amzn.to/3ViQAjQ (Amazon Link) --► Full show notes: https://passionstruck.com/laura-vanderkam-on-make-time-for-what-matters/ --► Subscribe to My YouTube Channel Here: https://www.youtube.com/c/JohnRMiles --► Subscribe to the podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/passion-struck-with-john-r-miles/id1553279283. *Our Patreon Page: https://www.patreon.com/passionstruck.
