Terms come in and out of popularity, and right now the word system is having a moment in the productivity, goal-setting world. I'm here to demystify this word. A system is just a collection of actions that you do to get a desired result.⚙️ Like following a recipe to bake a cake.In this episode, I talk about the importance and value of setting up a system for your self-care, because only when you take care of yourself can you show up as your best self in all parts of your life. ☺️⚙️Resources mentioned in this podcast:-Start my life design course "Harness the Power of Planning" now! http://tinyurl.com/hpopondemand-Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠BYWDreams.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ (http://⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠BYWDreams.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠) -Our books: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TinyURL.com/BYWDbooks⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ (http://

At the top of every podcast, I pull a card from a deck of inspirational quotes I have. This week's was from Edgar Magnin: "You are the one who can stretch your own horizon..."I spoke about how my passion for stand-up comedy has stretched me in so many ways.

In my opinion, one of the hardest parts about parenting is knowing when to give your kiddo an extra push and knowing when to "back off". There's not a lot of black and white here, just lots and lots of gray!In this episode, I chat with my friend Kim, mom and college admission counselor, on one of the biggest days of her professional (and personal) world: College Decision Day. Plot twist: her eldest son is still making up his mind and may end up choosing a different school than the one he'd planned to accept just a few days ago.

I saw this great illustration on LinkedIn (see link below) that distinguished between two types of burn-out. The first illustration was straight forward and you can see my reply to it below, but the second one depicted a phenomenon I would characterize as "living a life without purpose/passion". I will refer to this as feeling "extinguished" since the flame goes out in the illustration.If you are feeling "extinguished" or like life doesn't have purpose, I would suggest you consider the words of Socrates who said, "The unexamined life is not worth living." How can one life a life full of joy, purpose, and passion if one hasn't examined what one needs to feel those things? That's like getting into a boat and expecting it to get you somewhere you want to be without a course or a compass and maybe without even a destination (gasp!) What are the odds you would end up somewhere good without any of those things.What's the solution? Life design which I discuss i

Camping is GOOD FOR YOU! It's been shown to help improve sleep, breathing, and reset from the business of modern life. Even better? Camping with friends!

Most people don't achieve their goals (92% footnote 1). Perhaps it's because they don't set them at all. I've heard that most people don't set goals (perhaps as high as 80%) and that even fewer write them down (I've heard from 3-10%).In my experience, the big disconnect between what people want to achieve and actually achieving it centers around the fact that people haven't learned how to think strategically about the steps required to work towards their goals.In this 100th episode (!) of my podcast, we address this issue with examples to help you understand how you might break a goal down into its parts.Part 3: My friend Christine shares her thoughts on the first two parts and then we talk about her goal to raise resilient children. I love this goal not only because it's very relatable, but also because of it's "ephemeral" nature. I give her some ideas on how to make it more concrete and easier to implement on a daily basis.Website:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

My goal is not to turn you into a productivity robot. I don't want to show you how to do more things, I want to show you how to do more of what matters to you. In part two I explain the 70% rule of success. In our world of excess, it's a common assumption that you have to "give it your all" to be successful. I've found this not to be true and -- in fact -- counterproductive. Seventy-percent is accessible and sustainable!

My goal is not to turn you into a productivity robot. I don't want to show you how to do more things, I want to show you how to do more of what matters to you. That's what I mean by "kind productivity".

This is a rebroadcast of one of my most listened to episodes ever, episode 10 from March 2017. Time flies. The format of my podcast was a little different back then, but I think this episode has something for everyone.In part one I discuss an anger management strategy I came up with that has helped smooth over our family's communication for over a decade.
