Yes, indeed we have come to the end of Season 3 . . . woo-hoo! How do I feel? Hmm! You know that feeling when you start out with a task or project and you have held on through the ups and downs and kept pushing even when it didn’t feel as easy? But eventually in holding on and putting one foot in front of the other, you arrived at the finish line. That joy of wow! I made it . . . that's what I feel right now. And I have you to thank for keeping step, listening and engaging from season 1, 2 and ...

In this episode, I want to encourage you to do whatever you can within your means and capacity to spread love, joy and cheer - by being a source of encouragement and support to at least one person. Each One Reach One simply means, each one of us reaching out to at least one person to check up on them in whatever capacity we can afford to, just to ensure that they are doing good. It could also mean each one of us who isn’t exactly feeling like they are in tip-top shape, reaching out to at least ...

I am here to encourage faith and hope in us and also share tips to keep us going, amidst the constant unpleasant media releases that grace our phone and TV screens. We may have zero control over the news of new Covid-19 confirmed cases and deaths reeling out daily, but we can control how we choose to respond to them. Choosing to respond to fear and anxiety negatively impacts our physical and mental well being. It continually breaks us down and makes it difficult for us to function optimally and ...

This week I bring you a short charge that will help you consciously fight the urge to feel trapped or fearful during this challenging period. In this episode, I share a few tips to help you stay productive and channel those feelings of fear into activities as you self isolate and practice social distancing.

In simple terms, Productivity Brilliance is the light or radiance that you emit by being the best productive version of yourself. This means that showcasing the best productive version of yourself sparks brilliance. Another way of couching it could also be that; Productivity Brilliance is, ‘the intense presence, aura or fragrance a person exudes when they are their best productive self.’ Generally speaking, brilliance is intense brightness/light. I dare say, that it is incomplete to talk about b...

If Rome wasn’t built in a day, or babies are not conceived, fully formed and delivered in a day, why then are we always in a hurry, rush processes or cut corners with tasks and even prematurely execute projects as serious as our personal growth or development? We are constantly hurrying or cutting short processes and then end up with half-baked results that are barely able to stand the test of time. They have no growth patterns or processes that reflect how we progressed when ordinarily, our gro...

Our topic this week is, ‘Ready But Not Ready’. Are you wondering what that is all about? Well you know that familiar table yes? The one where we decide in our heads or minds that we are ready to make the very best of life and prepared to do whatever it takes to be the best versions of ourselves. Yet when the moment comes to actually put in the work, the drama begins. If for any reason you happen to be on this table that I am about to shake, I ask that you forgive me in advance, because - shake i...

Today we will be sharing on something called, “The Impostor Syndrome” . Some of us may be familiar with it and others, maybe not. We spoke about it extensively in Episode 25 but from the angle of “When Life Doesn’t Measure Up”. It would help to listen to it. I am very familiar with this syndrome because I have been there myself and can tell you for free that it’s a real threat and hindrance to productivity. The Impostor Syndrome is a serious deterrent to becoming the best productive version of y...

Welcome to this week’s episode of the Life Lessons podcast. Our discussion today is tagged, ‘The Best Version of Yourself’ Being the best version of yourself means consistently being the best you can be at every point in time. by constantly raising the bar for yourself to ensure improvement every step of the way. Being the best version of yourself is a lifestyle and not a destination that you arrive at. As a lifestyle, it requires that you make progress daily as against rushing to arrive there a...

I was recently having one of those ‘table-shaking’ conversations with a friend, where we both came to the conclusion that one of the few things that cannot be contracted out and has no shortcuts is ‘Physical Fitness’. With weight loss there are countless shortcut or quick fix options ranging from paying to go under the knife or liposuction, etc But with physical fitness, mba nunu, meaning ‘not at all’ YOU MUST PUT IN THE WORK, there’s absolutely no other way to be physically fit. You must engage...

This week let me start by asking you this very simple but mind-boggling question; How do you handle those really challenging days or situations in your life? Let’s attempt to answer truthfully without sugar-coating it. After all this is a personal soul-searching moment, none of us can hear your thought process except you. Because I have learned that it’s easier to find solutions to our problems or challenges when we are honest and sincere with ourselves, I will be generous with my vulnerability ...

This week we will be sharing on the ‘The Productivity Posture’ and for the very first time, I will be sharing with you my personal (tried and tested) Productivity Gain Formula and how I arrived at it. It’s so funny that I am not a fan of mathematics at all, but through my personal productivity journey I have come up with a formula that I have tried and tested on myself over and over again. Posture is the way you hold your body when you sit or stand or a particular approach or attitude. For the p...

I warmly welcome you to the start of Season 3 of our Life Lessons Podcast. Today we will be cheering in A New Productive Beginning. With the new comes a certain excitement, a fresh burst of energy and a zest of hope. It is always a good place to start.

I don’t know about you but this year, I intentionally decided to leave behind my mistakes, the woes of my shortfalls and...
