Overview
Our daily lives are filled with difficult problems:
- Distraction
- Inability to focus
- Indecision
- Procrastination
- Fear of failure
- Feeling overwhelmed
- Feelings of stress, uncertainty & anxiety
- Forgetting things, feeling unorganized
- Things lost in inbox, or inbox overflowing
- Always worried not doing the right thing or not using the right tools<
- Don’t feel like you’re doing anything meaningful
- Feel lost in a sea of tasks, no direction
- Lots to do, but don’t get much done each day
Does any of that sound familiar? We all deal with most of these problems, on a daily basis.
This workshop will address these problems with a system called Zen Productivity, developed by Leo Babauta.
In this workshop, you'll learn how to:
- Align yourself with a meaningful mission
- Pursue a meaningful direction each day, and get stuff accomplished
- Find clarity on what high-impact tasks to work on each day
- Structure your day, with flexibility, to accomplish your mission
- Stay on top of your todo list and process your inbox to empty
- Strengthen your ability to be focused & mindful, and less distracted
- Overcome procrastination by training in discomfort & uncertainty
- Simplify to overcome the feeling of being overwhelmed
- Learn to deal simply with stress & anxiety
- Create space for play, stillness, exercise & meditation
- Allow for uncertainty in your life, and get good at being in it
These are amazing skills, and we'll work on them together!

Workshop Format
We'll keep this fairly intimate, capping the group to 25 participants so we can get to know each other a bit, and we'll use smaller spaces rather than huge auditoriums.
Leo will combine talks with hands-on activities and group discussion, and will provide downloadable materials to use in daily life (pdfs and videos).
Lunches and other meals will not be provided, but breaks will be available for participants to grab a bite between sessions. Light refreshments will be provided.
