Text your thoughts and questions!When someone hears that I'm a productivity coach, the immediate expectation seems to be that I'll discuss planners, calendars, tasks, habits, and time management with them. While we do eventually discuss those things, they are NOT the first things we cover. I like to start with personal assessments. Why? Because the most effective and sustainable systems come from the person, not the planner, platform, or tool. And the Big 5 Personality Quiz (aka the Five Factor or OCEAN assessment) is one of my favorite places to start! This week, episode 267 of the Positively LivingⓇ Podcast is about how the Big 5 Personality Quiz helps you achieve more!In this episode of the Positively LivingⓇ Podcast, I'm sharing why getting to know yourself through your strengths, values, and personality (to figure out how you naturally operate) is a foundational step to achieving what you truly want in life. I provide actionable advice to leverage these traits so you can work smarter, not harder. The Big Five personality traits are:Openness - How open a person is to new ideas and experiences.Conscientiousness - How goal-directed, persistent, and organized a person is.Extraversion - How much a person is energized by the outside world.Agreeableness - How much a person puts others' interests and needs ahead of their own.Neuroticism - How sensitive a person is to stress and negative emotional triggers.Take the first step towards a more productive life today!
