On this episode, we explore how AI tools like Claude Cowork are automating the drudgery layer of knowledge work, and why the most important skill is now how well you can guide intelligent systems. Topics covered include: What Claude Cowork actually does well: file manipulation, web navigation, and closing the manual screenshot loop How work is shifting from execution to direction and intention-setting The morning briefing system: AI executing on goals set at daily, weekly, and strategic levels Applying the Intention Stack framework from Intentional to guide AI systems The risk of “wasted leverage” Why every minute becomes more valuable when you’re guiding systems instead of doing the work yourself Links mentioned in this episode: Intentional: How to Finish What You Start Claude Cowork by Claude/Anthropic The post Podcast: Productive with AI appeared first on Chris Bailey.

Why do 92% of New Year's resolutions fail? Because most of us are chasing goals that sound good instead of goals rooted in who we truly are. In this game-changing episode, I sit down with Chris Bailey—bestselling author of Intentional: How to Finish What You Start—to completely reimagine how we set and achieve our goals. You'll discover: Why SMART goals are often less effective than doing nothing at all (yes, really) The 12 fundamental human values that drive everything you do—and how to identify yours Why waking up at 4 AM has zero correlation with success (backed by research) How to know when quitting a goal is actually the smartest move The "Rule of Three" that will transform your daily productivity Chris breaks down the science of goal attainment in a way that's practical, tactical, and deeply personal. This isn't about hustle culture or Instagram productivity hacks. It's about aligning your goals with your core values so you actually want to finish what you start. Chris Bailey is a productivity expert whose work has been featured in The New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Harvard Business Review, and TED. His books have been published in over 40 languages, and his new book Intentional is already a bestseller. If you're tired of setting goals you never finish, this episode is for you.

In this episode of A Productive Conversation, I sit down once again with author and researcher Chris Bailey to explore what it really means to live—and work—intentionally. This conversation centers on his latest book, Intentional: How to Finish What You Start, and the decade of curiosity that led him there.We dig into why goals often fail us, how culture shapes our relationship with productivity, and why values—not habits, hacks, or willpower—sit at the core of meaningful progress. This isn't a surface-level productivity chat. It's a thoughtful examination of why we do what we do, and how to align our days with who we actually are.Six Discussion PointsWhy values—not goals—are the true drivers of intentional actionThe “intention stack” and how daily actions connect to lifelong directionWhy SMART goals aren't as smart as we've been led to believeCultural differences in how productivity and calm are valuedNight owls, morning routines, and the danger of “sepia-toned” goalsThe role of reflection in escaping default behavior and finishing what mattersThree Connection PointsBuy the bookCheck out Chris's websiteListen to Chris's first appearance the podcast (from October 2014!)This episode is a reminder that productivity isn't about doing more—it's about doing what fits. If you've ever felt friction between your goals and your values, or wondered why “good habits” still leave you unsatisfied, this conversation will give you plenty to reflect on—and return to.
On this episode, we chat about Chris's new book, Intentional, which is about the science of goal attainment! Here's a link to the book. And here's a link to learn more about it. Enjoy!

There is a missing piece between setting our goals and achieving them. Productivity expert and author Chris Bailey says the problem is intention. He talks about his new book Intentional and why so many goals quietly fade away. Chris explains how our habits, values and daily decisions shape whether we follow through. When we want to improve our productivity, goal-setting and finishing what we start, it's small intentional shifts that can make a big difference.

Cuando se graduó de la universidad con honores, rechazó dos ofertas de trabajo en grandes corporaciones para hacer algo que sonaba completamente loco: dedicar un año completo a convertirse en el más productivo posible. Durante 365 días se convirtió en su propio experimento, probando más de 25 técnicas diferentes. Su blog "A Year of Productivity" se convirtió en una sensación mundial, y dio una charla TED vista por millones.Lo más valioso: Chris descubrió que en la economía del conocimiento actual, gestionar solo tu tiempo ya no es suficiente.

En este episodio de Grandes Aprendizajes destilamos Hyperfocus, de Chris Bailey, una guía para recuperar tu atención en un mundo que compite por robártela. Descubrirás por qué tu “mesa mental” solo admite unas pocas cosas a la vez y cómo elegir un “destacado del día” cambia la jornada. Alternamos hiperfoco para ejecutar y dispersión útil para crear, evitando el residuo de las microinterrupciones que drenan tu rendimiento sin que te des cuenta.Bajamos a tierra con tácticas que caben hoy mismo: temporizador, lista de “pensamientos estacionados”, bloques sin correo, y la regla de los 20 segundos para reducir o aumentar fricción según te convenga. Protege tu energía cuando más rinde, planifica pausas creativas y entrena la atención volviendo una y otra vez a lo que importa. ¿Curiosidad por cómo dos o tres bloques bien hechos mueven más la aguja que un día entero atropellado? Al final, comparto la frase del libro que ordena todo lo demás.Conviértete en un seguidor de este podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/grandes-aprendizajes--5720587/support.Newsletter Marketing Radical: https://marketingradical.substack.com/welcomeNewsletter Negocios con IA: https://negociosconia.substack.com/welcomeLibro "Libertad Financiera" Gratis: https://borjagiron.com/libertadMis Libros: https://borjagiron.com/librosSysteme Gratis: https://borjagiron.com/systemeSysteme 30% dto: https://borjagiron.com/systeme30Manychat Gratis: https://borjagiron.com/manychatMetricool 30 días Gratis Plan Premium (Usa cupón BORJA30): https://borjagiron.com/metricoolNoticias Redes Sociales: https://redessocialeshoy.comNoticias IA: https://inteligenciaartificialhoy.comClub: https://triunfers.comThis content is under Fair Use: Copyright Disclaimer Under Section 107 of the Copyright Act in 1976; Allowance is made for "Fair Use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship and research.

Episode two of On The Record begins exactly where great podcasts are born: with the crushing realisation that nothing has been recorded. After a brief collective sigh (and a generous decision to “power through”), Michael Mackenzie, Brian Wise and guest Nick Corr regroup and press on—braver, wiser, and still dangerously unsupervised. What follows is a gloriously eclectic ramble through: A shamelessly persuasive plug for Rhythms Magazine, which somehow doubles as relationship advice A sold-out theatre talk about fungi, proving that mushrooms now draw bigger crowds than indie bands A deep dive into Pluribus, the Apple TV series that turns hive minds into a philosophical Rorschach test (Michael finds it calming; Brian finds it terrifying) The long-awaited final album from Chris Bailey of The Saints, hailed as a dignified, and moving farewell Lucinda Williams, political defiance, and why some albums are necessary whether America's ready or not A prolonged, reverent detour into Tom Waits, including birthdays, movies, glitter-filled pockets, and the universal agreement that everyone would still fly overseas to see him Talking Heads nostalgia, Bluesfest ticket shock, and the unsettling concept of “cover bands with original members” The episode wraps with movies (Dead of Winter, Train Dreams), tears shed in unexpected places, and the firm belief that art about love, loss, and grief is best discussed at length—preferably after checking the record button. On The Record is a podcast where culture is taken seriously, and tangents are treated as the main event.

This week, I want to explore something most people overlook: the paradox of friendship. I wrote a piece for a new podcast episode called “The Friendship Frequency” - The Paradox of Friendship: How Not Needing Friends Draws the Right Ones Closer Reflecting on the previous conversation on “Validation,” I see a strong correlation between seeking and obtaining friends and the desire for validation. This can get sticky as we find ourselves seeking friends for the wrong reasons, which means getting tethered to the wrong people who not only don't serve you and your goals and dreams, but also cause conflict and unnecessary distraction. I interviewed an extraordinary guest on my podcast named Chris Bailey who has a crazy viral TED Talk on this topic We're taught to find good friends, to look for connection, to build community. But what if the real secret to attracting the right friends isn't about seeking at all? What if it begins with becoming comfortable walking alone, and realizing that we were never truly alone to start with? Here's the paradox: the less we need friendship to feel whole, the more we attract friends who are whole themselves. The person who doesn't cling, doesn't perform, and doesn't chase — becomes magnetic. It's the same principle that applies in business and leadership: the individual who leads with calm confidence, who doesn't exude desperation for clients or approval, naturally draws people in. So today's conversation isn't about loneliness — it's about wholeness. It's about understanding how self-friendship becomes the signal that draws in the right people, and how those relationships enrich our lives when they're built on resonance rather than need.

What Chris learned waking up at 5:30 every morning—and our thoughts on waking up early. The post Podcast 159: Waking Up Early appeared first on Chris Bailey.
On Saturday 18 October 2025, DJ Jesse Luscious had a UK to Australia chat with Ed Kuepper, guitarist for many bands, co-founder of The Saints, & mastermind of The Saints 73-78 who are about to play 5 U.K. dates between the 21st & 26th of November. The Saints 73-78 feature the 2 living co-founders of The Saints- Ed Kuepper & Ivor Hay- along with Mark Arm (Mudhoney) on vocals & Mick Harvey (Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds & The Birthday Party) on 2nd guitar. They're on a world tour and are playing 5 U.K. dates (see below) with a set made up of only songs from the 1st 3 Saints albums: "I'm Stranded", "Eternally Yours", and "Prehistoric Sounds"! Among other things, we talk about Ed Kuepper's earliest musical loves, how he discovered his brash & confrontational guitar tone in early 70s Brisbane, the first 5 years of The Saints (including their discovery of their contemporaries Radio Birdman only after they moved to Sydney and their whirlwind life in the U.K. in 1977 & 1978), and whether Chris Bailey, who died in 2022 and was also a co-founder of the Saints, would've been playing on the current Saints 73-78 tour. Interspersed with classic Saints songs, this wide-ranging chat will delight any fan of one of Australia's greatest musical exports: The Saints! [Photo of Ed Kuepper by Caleb Cluff/ABC Rural]
