I think the challenge most people have is to “Eat the frog” in the morning. We tend to put off the most uncomfortable task for later.

Around 4 months ago, I committed to the “52 books in 52 weeks” challenge. But I was struggling. Forcing myself to read first thing in the morning solved that! Now “reading” has been pushed into my comfort zone and I’m 22 books in 19 weeks! (I was even able to compile a Reading List for entrepreneurs/business enthusiasts : Categorized Reading List for Entreprneurs )

The garden is the perfect place for a break from work. I miss having a garden!

Used to think starting with the most difficult start might end up leaving you exhausted to do the simpler ones. I usually start out with the easiest one first then progress to the difficult ones. Looks like i’ll be changing my strategy to see how well it’ll increase my productivity.

I’m with you there, Jake. My dad had a saying ~ Too many meetings is corporate suicide. He told me on more than one occasion to share that with my CEO. I passed (although I totally agreed). 😉

Great infographic, John. Thanks for sharing.

Anne, I only have a home office, but I often find that the right coffee shop is the most productive place for me.

Meetings can suck up so much time and energy. I just finished a draft post that addresses how to have productive meetings (and when to have no meetings at all). It should run within the next three months or so.

Jake, over the last few months I’ve noticed that many blogs have problems with CommentLuv. Often no blog post shows up at all.
