Productivity - not a fun word for most people. Well, what if there was a way to quickly figure out what matters most, focus in on that, let go of everything else, then go from idea to done? To become a productivity Jedi. That is what we're talking about in today's powerful conversation with Start Finishing (https://amzn.to/2MRYpgA) author, and founder of Productive Flourishing (https://www.productiveflourishing.com/), Charlie Gilkey. We dive into Charlie's specific ideas around why so much of our effort to be productive fails, and how to rewire our brains and schedules and actions for finishing and finally feel good about what we're accomplishing. Along the way, we explore how Gilkey's highly-unique background as a philosopher, military logistics officer, productivity strategist and consultant to creative professionals, founders and fast-growth entrepreneurial teams has shaped his powerful lens of going from idea to done. ------------- Have you discovered your Sparketype yet? Take the Sparketype Assessment™ now.

  • So two questions that I tend to hear all the time are how do you figure out what to focus on on any given time?

  • How do you choose the thing to devote, you know, all of your super precious waking hours to?

  • That is really the right thing, the thing that makes you come alive, the thing that is your best work.

  • And then once you make that choice, how do you actually do it?

  • How do you go from starting to moving through the entire process to not dropping the ball to not burning out to taking that thing in your head, the thing that you really care about doing, and instead of consistently sort of starting something and then not knowing how to get all the way through it and not knowing how to get it to that final place where it's done and you feel amazing, you just kind of walk away.

  • So how do you go past that point and get it completely finished?

  • This is why I am so excited to share today's guest.

  • Charlie Gilkey is actually an old friend of mine.

  • We have been working together, collaborating together, playing together for more than a decade now, and he is my go to resource when I'm trying to figure out how to make things happen, how to go from idea to project to actually finished.

  • And he has a new book out now called Start finishing.

  • How to go from idea to done.

  • This distills all of Charlie's incredible wisdom.

  • His models, his frameworks, his templates, his very practical real world tools that will show you everything from how to figure out what to be, focusing on, how to choose among all the different things you're interested in, how to find that project that is truly worthy of your time, effort and love.

  • How to then walk through the steps of making it happen, of actually starting, finishing and then finishing, finishing, making it real, making it done.

  • Super powerful conversation.

  • We talk a bit about how Charlie got to this place where he's sort of the guru of getting things to a place where they're actually finished.

  • And then we dive into some really sort of critical ideas, strategies and touch points.

  • You will be surprised.

  • There's a whole bunch of stuff that I learn every time I talk to Charlie and some really powerful wisdom points and strategies.

  • Cannot wait to share this with you.
