Ep #15: How to Be More Productive


This week, we’re taking a deep dive into the topic of being more productive. In today’s culture, productivity is a way of life. So what happens when we don’t feel like we’re meeting society’s standard of “productive?”

The market is saturated with tools to help us meet the demands of productivity. There are different workflows that you can follow to help you structure your work and be more organized; however, you will more than likely not stick with any of them if you don’t get your head “in the right place.”

In this episode of The Lawyer Stress Solution, we’re talking about the mental aspects of improved productivity such as anxiety, cultivating productive thoughts, and reducing shame around the subject. I also teach you what you can begin practicing in your own daily life to help you be more productive.
