152 QuotesI love hacking time. I adore being more productive. And I geek out on streamlining my systems. But it wasn’t always that way. And there were two things that helped me immensely to become more organized and free up more time.

One was the principles behind GTD – Getting Things Done: The Art of Stress-Free Productivity.

The second was, when it arrived in my life a few years back, the free productivity tool Asana. Oh how I love thee…

Of course masterminding with other entrepreneurs around their productivity hacks is also something that’s helped me to refine my systems. And Mike Vardy is one of those people.

Mike is a writer, speaker, and Founder and President of Productivityist. Before founding his business, he served as Managing Editor of the highly popular productivity blog Lifehack, and as an editor at The Next Web and WorkAwesome.

Heck he’s even written the book on productivity: The Productivityist Workbook as well as a few others.

In this episode we delve into the fundamentals of what makes people ridiculously productive and also Mike unveils advanced strategies for using Asana to become a productive rockstar.
