How to take Fridays Off – My interview on the AllThings Productivity Podcast

I had a blast recently being interviewed for the AllThings Productivity Podcast with hosts David Hay and Maria Drummond. The episode is now live and you can listen on-line or via iTunes or Stitcher Radio.

AllThings Productivity Podcast

Many of the readers of this blog will be familiar with the AllThings app as the productivity tool of choice for many IT Solution Providers, so it was great fun to talk with my old friend David Hay about our shared history in the IT industry.

In our interview we talk, amongst other things, about:-

M y love/hate relationship with email.
My experiment in reducing my emails by a quarter.
My Experiment in using the Telephone instead of E-Mail.
Systemising and automating your business. Or as I call it “being devoted to being a lazy, lazy man”.
The Managed Service Provider “Bible” – The E-Myth Revisited
Meditation with the Headspace app
Why You Should Create a To NOT Do List
The importance of Sleep and 3 Ways To Worry Less and Sleep Better as a Business Owner
My constant struggles with procrastination and how to end procrastination with the Pomodoro technique.
My Daily Productivity Routine.
How I’d survive a Zombie Apocalypse (no, really).

How to take Fridays off

We also talk extensively about the fact I no longer work of a Friday and how I manage to achieve this status quo, yet still remain as productive as when I worked a standard 5 day week.

The 4-day week, impossible for you? Listen to our interview to hear how to take Fridays off and how you could do the same yourself.

Thank you David and Maria for inviting me on to the Podcast and for giving us extended time to chat. I hope you enjoy our conversation!
