Overview

The secret about people who are super productive? They don’t have any more will-power, self-discipline, or self-control than you. You’re not a lazy person. It's not fair to beat yourself up because you’re ‘not productive enough’. People who are super productive have simply discovered ways to arrange their life so it’s easier from them to do the things they want to: it takes them less effort. And there are techniques and tricks that can help even the most disorganized of us.
