We all use email every day. It’s hard to imagine work and personal life pre-email technology. And, while it serves many functions, it also tends to multiply in numbers--literally, the number of accounts we create and manage over time. In this episode, the ProductivityCast team discusses how many email accounts we have, and the purpose of each email account in our productivity systems. Enjoy! Give us feedback! And, thanks for listening!

gentlemen to the show thank you great to
15
00:00:31,289 --> 00:00:37,670
be here hey guys how's it going pretty
16
00:00:35,910 --> 00:00:41,820
well pretty well how's it going with you
17
00:00:37,670 --> 00:00:43,770
I've discovered that I've managed to do
18
00:00:41,820 --> 00:00:47,250
something unfortunate to my Chromebook
19
00:00:43,770 --> 00:00:49,110
there's a setting in most of these that
20
00:00:47,250 --> 00:00:51,660
allow you to change your trackpad to
21
00:00:49,110 --> 00:00:53,760
what's called Australian mode and I'm
22
00:00:51,660 --> 00:00:57,690
thinking oh that would be cool no it
23
00:00:53,760 --> 00:01:03,210
turns the trackpad upside down like the
24
00:00:57,690 --> 00:01:05,100
toilets right roll is now upside down
25
00:01:03,210 --> 00:01:07,680
now so my prod productivity is
26
00:01:05,100 --> 00:01:12,060
officially half today because every
27
00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:14,400
scroll is taking twice so yep yep I
28
00:01:12,060 --> 00:01:16,830
totally get that that's like the on max
29
00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:19,380
you can you can scroll two finger scroll
30
00:01:16,830 --> 00:01:21,810
up or down on the touchpad and of course
31
00:01:19,380 --> 00:01:24,930
I'm very skeuomorphic so I believe that
32
00:01:21,810 --> 00:01:26,759
the pad should be you should push up in
33
00:01:24,930 --> 00:01:28,200
order to push a piece of paper up and so
34
00:01:26,759 --> 00:01:30,540
therefore that should be the way the
35
00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:33,000
browser and all browsing should take
36
In today's world, it's impossible to remember everything we can know. From passwords to tasks to calendar appointments and more, there are data out there that simply don't belong rolling around clouding up our focus. And, thankfully, we have the ability to externalize this information from retention to recall. In this cast, the ProductivityCast team looks at the concept of the external brain as a productivity enabler. Enjoy! Give us feedback! And, thanks for listening!

25 episodes! Thank you all for listening and helping us grow the ProductivityCast community!
As we grow and change in our personal and professional lives, we should all consider if the way you see your “next actions” (the granular, physical tasks we take to move projects forward, a la Getting Things Done by David Allen). If we approach next-action crafting in time chunks smaller or larger, or based on different contexts, than you need to accomplish them, then we’ll see ourselves being less effective. In this cast, the ProductivityCast team addresses the issue of priming ourselves to appropriate next-action thinking in our productivity systems.
Enjoy! Give us feedback! And, again, thanks for listening!

On this cast, we have some fun! That is, we ask ourselves the question, can productivity be fun? The ProductivityCast team talks about the concept of adding fun into your productive life. We discuss the potential opportunities to incorporate play into your work, gamifying your productivity system, negative stereotyping by business about the idea of games in a professional space, and more. How are you adding fun into your productivity?

If you’re someone interested in the work we do at Framework Consulting, here’s a brief update on some of the latest happenings.
This new program is an opportunity for companies to bring us in during a lunch hour to share some of our most recent ideas. It’s purely educational, for groups of up to 10 people. More information here.
Another new program for sponsors of strategy planning retreats was also launched. It’s a 100% online training called Dynamic Objectives. At the moment, it’s complimentary and the next offering will be in 2018. Sign up to join the waiting list here.
In late 2017, we led a webinar on Business Process Management describing the problem companies face when they bring in outsiders to conduct reviews. Click here to access.
Along with the webinar attendees also receive a copy of a compilation of my articles on the subject published in the Daily Gleaner.
In much the same way, we also assembled a compilation of strategy articles from past columns. Access them here.
Over a period of several months in 2016-17 we undertook data gathering for a brand new study of Jamaican Professionals living and working in Trinidad. This unique content is available here and serves individuals or companies venturing into the twin-island republic to seek business opportunities.
This webinar will shortly be published in the Gleaner in the form of an article, but it’s quite a different experience hearing us interact with a live audience. Click here to listen in.
A brand new guide was recently launched to help people who are experiencing “improvement overload” and are looking for help in deciding their next upgrade. Access it here.
This YouTube video gives some great hints on ways to maintain your expertise in a narrow area of professional interest. Click here to listen in.
My Brain Has Too Many Tabs Open!
If you find yourself distracted by too many stray thoughts, tune into this short video to see why it happens and how to fix the problem. Listen here.
Clutter is a pernicious problem for many people. And, so is its cousin, digital clutter. Across your many desktop and mobile devices now prevalent in daily life, we house files piled high (metaphorically speaking) that as Art Gelwicks aptly notes, lives on "without a clearly defined purpose." Clearly this is a complicated issue and the ProductivityCast team has a healthy debate about the practicality of managing our digital worlds, and what awaits us in the future for digital information management. Join us for this fascinating discussion into digital clutter and the need to do digital decluttering.
This is surely a topic we'll revisit in the future, as the more information we have about us living both locally on our systems and in the cloud grows, almost exponentially.
Enjoy! Give us feedback! And, thanks for listening!
If you'd like to discuss this episode, please click here to leave a comment down below (this jumps you to the bottom of the post). What are your thoughts on your digital information and performing any kind of digital decluttering? Do you suffer from digital clutter? Or, do you have a particular area where you manage your digital information well (say, at work), but very poorly elsewhere (like, home digital photo organization)? You can comment below, or let us know via our contact form (audio or text) and we'll be glad to help as best as we can in a future episode.

Augusto received mistakenly a letter from his local municipality, and the time-wasting process began of fixing another person’s mistakes. And, yes, people will make mistakes. You will make mistakes. But, the deeper issue here is valuing other people’s time. There are many issues when respecting and understanding the productive value of other people's time. And, in this cast, we guide you on how to be more productive when valuing other people's time and helping them understand how to value yours.
Enjoy! Give us feedback! And, thanks for listening!
