My favorite resources to help maximize productivity.
blinkist & getabstract
Business books, and non-fiction books in general, often contain a few good nuggets surrounded by fluff.
Blinkist and GetAbstract allow you to read or listen to short summaries of non-fiction books, allowing you to get the gist, without wasting your valuable time.
Adobe Scan
iPhone and Android app used to scan on the fly and produce great looking PDFs that you can save or share.
Monday & Clickup
There is a lot of project management software out there, but these two are at the top of my list for ease of use and functionality.
If you find yourself spending a lot of time chasing down projects or reminding your team about the thing you already reminded them about, project management software is a great way to create accountability and save leaders and managers time.
Remarkable
I like the feel of writing on paper, so I had lots of legal pads lying around in my office, car, house, and everywhere else, which caused me lots of anxiety, because that’s where my important notes were! Enter Remarkable - feels like paper, which helps my brain, and has tons of functionality. Use this link for a $40 discount when you purchase yours.
Headspace
I know meditation benefits me and am also loathe to actually do it, as are many of my clients. I love this app, because I can quickly find exercises that take just a few minutes and ground me during the day or at night when my head is swirling.
