Working Hard with Grace BeverleyGive me 20 minutes to make you dangerously mentally strong (so you can achieve your goals) with Maya Raichoora | Future Self Series Ep.5So episode 5 of the Future Self Series is all about mental fitness. We’re all very used to the idea of keeping our bodies physically fit, but realistically, when was the last time you actively trained your brain in the same way? (I had a Nintendo brain training game as a child, but I fear that may have been the beginning and end of my efforts). I’ve always loved Maya’s approach to mental fitness as something we can actually work on and train, rather than just talking about our mental health as something we all have. So this episod...

Working Hard with Grace BeverleyThe 5 systems that changed my productivity & my life foreverToday I thought we could go through the five systems that have had the biggest impact on both my productivity and my happiness. And I want to say both of those things deliberately, because I think we talk about productivity like it's separate from how we feel. In my experience, it really isn't. When the systems are right, you feel better. And the whole reason I like productivity is that it leaves more space for not working, and the fun bits!!The other episodes I mentioned: - The calendar bonus episode: https://open.spotify.com/episode/3YUDprqI5UKB2...
