@Vicky Salisbury @Tia ColemanCarr @Donna Bjurlin @Simon Sharpe @Dorothea Habtamu @Mary Christou @Joan Jones @Linda Hernandez @Mads Munk @Heather Jensen you all mentioned task initiation, motivation, procrastination, or feeling overwhelmed by everything on your plate. We covered this during the Q&A so here's the breakdown. The main message: most productivity advice is way too simplistic. A new Notion dashboard or switching to a different app is not going to fix it. That's putting a bandaid on a broken system. The Harmony Productivity System works in layers, and skipping layers is why most approaches fail. Also see the attached image for reference. Layer 1: Regulation first. You can have the best system in the world, but if you sleep badly, you won't be productive. Period. The first domino is always: optimize sleep, add some movement (releases dopamine naturally), improve nutrition. Without a regulated nervous system, nothing else works. This is why so many of you feel like you "can't start." Your brain literally doesn't have the fuel. Layer 2: Purpose & Alignment. Once regulation is handled, figure out what actually lights you up. You don't need your full life purpose right now. Just arrange things so what you do is at least somewhat aligned with who you are. @Heather Jensen this is your situation. If your current job drains you, that's okay, but have a plan for what you're working toward. Knowing the "why" behind the grind makes the grind bearable. Layer 3: Two Big Rocks. Don't set 10 goals. Pick two. Mine are my health and my business. Everything else follows from keeping those two on track. @Mary Christou , this is the answer to "what should I focus on?" Fewer priorities means more follow-through. Pick two, let everything else be secondary.

Today was the day that I was scheduled to join and student/graduate meet and greet. They meet every 6 weeks in Northland, NZ. Today took me out of my safe comfort zone to meet a group of people that I may or may not get along with. It was challenging as I was the only newbie there and I felt as though I was out of my depth completely. But I did it and I will persevere in order to help me achieve some mid term goals (in the next 6 months) 🤩
