Habitica: Gamify your Tasks - Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra

Gamification is the process of turning tasks or goals into a game-like experience by adding rewards, challenges, or milestones. It can make freelancing less isolating and perhaps a bit more fun. It involves integrating aspects of game design, such as points, badges, leaderboards, challenges, or levels, into various activities, tasks, or processes.OFFICIAL WEBSITE: https://www.filmproproductivity.com/TWITTER: https://twitter.com/FilmProProdPodFACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/filmproproductivityCONTACT: https://www.filmproproductivity.com/contactINDIE FILM HUSTLE: https://indiefilmhustle.com/ifh-podcast-network-filmmaking-and-screenwriting/YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqo0Zld2Lm2lJDpDh3GsuZgQUOTES:Gamification is not about turning everything into a game. It's about taking the essence of what games do really well and applying it to areas outside of games. Simon SinekThe beauty of gamification lies in its ability to make the mundane extraordinary, turning everyday tasks into immersive adventures that transform our lives for the better. Jane McGonigalGamification is just a buzzword for what good games have been doing all along: providing meaningful experiences.

What if the secret to getting unstuck isn't in another checklist—but in the games you used to play as a kid?In this episode, I explore how classic childhood games like Red Light, Green Light, Hide and Seek, and Mother May I offer surprisingly powerful metaphors for navigating clinician burnout.

Dr. Corrigan shares her journey as a rural generalist, juggling family medicine, care of the elderly, and specialized clinic procedures—all while navigating the unique challenges of ADHD within the medical profession. Listen in as Dr. Corrigan opens up about overcoming imposter syndrome, adapting her workflow to suit her learning style, and the tools and reframing strategies that have helped her create a more sustainable clinical day. She and Dr. Smith discuss practical solutions—from using timers and EMR hacks to embracing positive self-talk and gamifying the most dreaded tasks. Whether you're facing your own clinical challenges or just looking for ways to make your workday more manageable, this conversation is packed with actionable insights and relatable stories. Tune in for an honest, uplifting, and strategy-filled episode designed to help you reclaim time for your life outside of medicine!

Reward yourself, gamify tasks, and see the power of a positive reframe. Gamify for Focus and Flow: Small hacks (timers, shortcut tools like Magical, or breaking tasks into manageable chunks) help combat time blindness and overwhelm, making even inbox management feel like a win.

“I Don’t Like Playing with My Kids” – Why Play Still Matters If the idea of playing Barbies or dragons makes you groan… you’re not alone. In this episode, Justin and Kylie tackle a parenting confession that many are afraid to admit: “I don’t like playing with my kids.” Drawing from emotional intelligence research and real-life experience, they unpack why play matters (even if it’s not your favourite), how to make it meaningful and manageable, and why it’s one of the simplest ways to build connection, confidence, and emotional regulation in your child. KEY POINTS Play is not a luxury—it’s essential.Play builds emotional intelligence, connection, and social skills better than almost anything else. It’s not about doing it ‘right’.Play works best when it’s spontaneous, simple, and mutually enjoyable—not when it’s forced or scripted. The emotional impact is profound.Play regulates emotions, reduces tension, strengthens relationships, and helps kids feel seen, heard, and valued. The secret is in the interaction.What makes play powerful is the back-and-forth: the jokes, the giggles, the shared creativity—not the activity itself. A little goes a long way.Just 5–10 minutes of intentional play can fill your child’s emotional cup and help them play independently afterwards. QUOTE OF THE EPISODE “Play is not about perfection—it’s about connection and presence.” RESOURCES MENTIONED Happy Families Membership – parenting tools & webinars happyfamilies.com.au – resources for raising emotionally intelligent kids Ethan Kross, Shift ACTION STEPS FOR PARENTS Find a 5–10 minute window each dayYou don’t need hours. Commit to short, fully present bursts of play—no phones, no multitasking. Gamify the mundaneTurn routines into playful challenges: “Can you hop to the bathroom on one foot?” or “Let’s race to tidy up.” Let your child leadAsk: “How could we make this more fun?” Give them a sense of autonomy and watch their creativity bloom. Prioritise connection over performanceYou’re not there to entertain—you’re there to engage. Drop the pressure, enjoy the moment. Repeat. Consistency is the win.Over time, this builds emotional strength, stronger relationships, and memories that last. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Active Mixing - From Boring to Baller Episode Overview In this episode, Michael Curtis shares practical strategies for creating more engaging, dynamic worship mixes. Drawing from his background as a professional bass player and mixer, he explores how intentionality and specificity can transform "boring" mixes into creative, engaging experiences that better serve worship environments. Time Stamps & Key Points Introduction [00:48] Michael introduces the concept of "active mixing" versus boring mixing The challenge: Moving beyond "it sounds fine" to creating engaging, dynamic mixes Creativity as the antidote to boring mixing Creativity Through Structure [01:41] Biblical concept of creation: bringing order from formlessness The playground analogy: Children with fenced playgrounds use 90% of the space vs. 30% without fences "Sometimes what feels like a straight jacket is actually a Narnia closet" Leadership through specificity and making finer distinctions Strategies for Worship Pastors [05:52] Prescriptive leadership can be valuable when appropriate The progression from 10 Commandments (prescriptive) to Sermon on the Mount (descriptive) Matching leadership style to team maturity level Create "sit-down chords" - signals that create clear expectations Setting up rhythms and cues that guide the worship team Organize tracks by function, not just instrument: Percussion: Rhythm-driving elements Foundation: Bass and low-end elements Filler: Pads and ambient elements Leads: Melodic elements that guide congregation Gamify growth paths for volunteers Create progressive learning steps (like unlocking levels in a game) Apply "arbitrary limits" that help beginners master fundamentals before moving on Name and assign musical ownership Clarify who owns each musical element at any given time Consider adding a dedicated "music producer" position Strategies for Musicians [12:36] "Rhythm Randy needs a retirement party" Moving beyond mindlessly strumming the chord chart Playing a part rather than just playing the chart Use the whole playground within boundaries Finding creative ways to express within structure Create "alley-oop" moments Intentional handoffs between instruments Setting up moments for other musicians to shine Beware of "bedroom vacuums" Sounds created in isolation often take up too much sonic space Smaller sonic footprint needed in larger ensembles Interesting is greater than good Focus on creating compelling sounds, not just technically correct ones Hire both "Jekyll and Hyde" Balance between foundational players and texture specialists Strategies for Front of House Engineers [18:57] Be the guide - lead with your decisions Take charge of the mix and make intentional choices Use contrast effectively Create distinction between elements (can't have "close" without "far") Highlight different instruments in different sections Anticipate "oops" moments, don't just react Push faders before transitions, not after they happen Vary verse highlights Intentionally feature different instruments in different verses Keep congregation engaged through variety Develop common tonal language The "5-1-2" system for describing frequency ranges Creating shared vocabulary for sound issues Reference the real Compare your mix to professional recordings Combat ear fatigue by checking against references Mise en place - everything in its place Strategic console layout for efficient mixing Positioning faders for easy access during active mixing Conclusion [24:25] Start with clear direction (10 Commandments approach) then move to principles (Sermon on the Mount) Have the courage to be specific with your team Embrace structure as a pathway to creativity Key Quotes "Sometimes what feels like a straight jacket is actually a Narnia closet." "Move away from playing the chart to playing the part." "It is in that company's best interest to give you a patch that sounds great out of the box, but that's taking up a lot of real estate to make it sound good on its own." "Be the guide, take charge, lead your congregation with your decisions." "There cannot be close if there's not far, there cannot be wide if there isn't narrow." "Interesting is greater than or at least equal to good." Practical Applications For Worship Pastors: Organize tracks by function rather than instrument type Create clear growth paths for volunteers Be appropriately prescriptive with newer team members For Musicians: Consider your sonic footprint within the full band context Play intentional parts, not just the chord chart Create sounds that are interesting, not just technically correct For Sound Engineers: Use your left and right hands strategically on the console Intentionally highlight different instruments in different verses Reference professional mixes to maintain perspective Connect & Continue For more insights on active mixing and creative worship production, connect with Michael Curtis and the Church Front team.

In this episode, Cindy Esliger talks about perspective and how our perspective of our work colors how we feel about it. Our brains love to tell stories about what we're doing, but if the story being told at work is always “I hate this,” we'll be in misery. Cindy poses the alternative option: getting our brains to tell a story about enjoyment, which can change our experience at work to one of curiosity or even excitement. So, how do we do that? How do we shift perspective? Cindy asks what motivates us more: fear or fun? We've been sold the lie that misery equals merit, that being challenged and pushing harder at work, feeling stressed and unhappy, makes us better at our jobs. But being miserable is not the only way to work. If we choose to enjoy what we do, then we can make the same work fun and see it through the lens of curiosity and motivation. Cindy shares four strategies to help us turn even the worst tasks into a bit more fun: 1) Gamify our work, 2) Pair it with a reward, 3) Turn it into a challenge, and 4) Add personal touches. Work isn't always fun. But Cindy encourages us to be proactive about our own motivation. Motivation, rooted in either fear or reward, is the fuel that gets us through work. So Cindy breaks down how to generate our own motivation in a way that makes the task easier and more enjoyable, with advice on overcoming dread with action. Resources discussed in this episode:Guide to Turning Torture into TriumphAstronomic AudioConfidence Collective—Contact Cindy Esliger Career Confidence Coaching: website | instagram | facebook | linkedin | email

He distinguishes between Big P and Little P purposes, advocating for a more process-oriented approach to fulfillment. Discover the significance of community and connection in achieving happiness, and how to address the common anxiety surrounding one's search for purpose. Ultimately, Doc G encourages listeners to engage in activities that light them up, suggesting that true fulfillment comes from enjoying the process rather than fixating on audacious goals.GUEST BIO: Doc G's interest in becoming a doctor ignited when his father, an oncologist, died unexpectedly in the prime of life. This profound and life-shaping boyhood loss compelled him to dedicate his early career to the art of medicine. He was an Assistant Professor, first at Northwestern University and then at The University of Chicago. He has been a medical director of several nursing homes, started multiple palliative care programs in extended care facilities, and is an associate medical director for a hospice provider. After shaping his personal finance plan around the FIRE (Financial Independence Retire Early) movement, Doc G began a new chapter by becoming semi-retired by the age of 45. Today in addition to his work as a hospice doctor, he intertwines medical insight and financial wisdom in writing and speaking engagements that explore the topics of wealth, abundance, and financial independence to help people live meaningful lives. He publishes the Earn and Invest podcast about personal finance and wellness, and has also run several small businesses including a concierge medical practice, an online art gallery, and is the author of two books, including his latest The Purpose Code, How to Unlock Meaning, Maximize Happiness, and Leave a Lasting Legacy, published in January 2025.Connect & Learn Morehttps://jordangrumet.com/https://www.earnandinvest.com/The Purpose Code – How to Unlock Meaning, Maximize Happiness, and Leave a Lasting Legacyhttps://amzn.to/4hizM6BTaking Stock – A Hospice Doctor's Advice on Financial Independence, Building Wealth, and Living a Regret-Free Lifehttps://amzn.to/4kOj2HtRESOURCESHappiness = Freedom + Meaningfulness on RVE #383https://therventrepreneur.com/rve383/Early Retirement Nowhttps://earlyretirementnow.com/The Skeptic's Guide to FIRE (Financial Independence, Retire Early)https://nickwolny.com/financial-independence-guide~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~THE RV ENTREPRENEURhttps://therventrepreneur.com~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Join the RVE community on Facebook!⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/groups/therventrepreneurcommunity⁠Connect with RVE on all your favorite socials⁠https://therventrepreneur.com/connect⁠⁠Got questions or comments for our hosts?

Welcome back to Authentically ADHD, where we explore the realities of living with ADHD—the science, struggles, and strengths. Host Carmen Irace delves into the debate of Consistency vs. Persistence, examining why one is more suited to ADHD brains than the other. This episode challenges conventional productivity wisdom and offers practical insights for sustainable success.The Expectation of Consistency: Consistency is often touted as key to success, yet for ADHD individuals, it can feel unattainable. Scientific insights reveal how ADHD brains navigate motivation and effort differently, highlighting the disconnect between traditional expectations and neurological reality.Redefining Success Through Persistence: Shifting focus to persistence, Irace explains why this approach aligns better with ADHD traits. Persistence allows for flexibility, embracing the natural ebb and flow of motivation without the guilt of perceived failures. Scientific studies underscore the effectiveness of this mindset in achieving long-term goals.Real-Life Examples of Persistence Over Consistency: Irace provides practical examples—from exercise routines to work productivity and relationships—illustrating how embracing persistence leads to sustained progress. Each scenario emphasizes adapting habits to individual rhythms rather than adhering to rigid schedules.How to Build Persistence (Without Pressure): The episode concludes with six science-backed strategies to cultivate persistence in daily life. These include leveraging micro-wins, using external structures like alarms and accountability partners, and fostering self-compassion to navigate setbacks effectively.Closing Thoughts: Consistency may be overrated, but persistence is ADHD-friendly and sustainable. Irace encourages listeners to embrace this mindset, emphasizing that success lies in resilience rather than unattainable perfection.This episode resonates with anyone who has struggled with maintaining routines or habits, offering a refreshing perspective that celebrates the unique strengths of ADHD. Join Carmen Irace next time as she continues to explore topics essential to thriving with ADHD.Link Tree: https://linktr.ee/carmen_iraceJoin Focused: https://ihaveadhdllc.ontralink.com/t?orid=29951&opid=1Show Notes:INTRODUCTIONHOST (Carmen Irace): Hey everyone! Welcome back to Authentically ADHD, the podcast where we dive deep into the realities of living with ADHD—the science, the struggles, and the strengths. I'm your host, Carmen Irace, and today, we're tackling a topic that I know so many of us wrestle with: Consistency vs. Persistence—and why one of these works way better for ADHD brains than the other.I want you to take a second and think about these two words. Consistency. Persistence. Which one makes you feel empowered? And which one makes you feel exhausted just thinking about it?For most of us with ADHD, "consistency" feels like this impossible standard that we just can't live up to. We're told that success comes from doing the same thing, the same way, over and over—but our brains just don't work that way. And that's okay.Today, we're breaking it all down. We'll explore:* The perception of these words and why consistency feels unattainable for ADHDers* The science behind why our brains struggle with consistency but thrive with persistence* Why persistence is actually the ADHD-friendly approach to long-term success* And some practical strategies to help you build persistence without pressureSo, if you've ever felt frustrated that you "can't stay consistent" with habits, work, or goals—this episode is for you. Let's jump in.THE EXPECTATION OF CONSISTENCYLet's start with consistency.This word is thrown around all the time in productivity culture:* “The key to success is consistency.”* “If you're not consistent, you're not disciplined.”* “Success comes from showing up every single day.”And if you have ADHD, hearing that feels like being asked to run a marathon with no training, no shoes, and no idea where the finish line is. Because consistency is built on predictability—and ADHD is the opposite of predictable.

266: “I used to have a very toxic relationship with work. Then I realized—I don't have to work. Who said I have to work? I choose to play instead.” - Klara HascakovaIn this episode, Chelsea and Klara Hascakova explore the concept of "Antichrist Consciousness" (eek! provoking, but listen to the ep for an explanataion) and how collective thought patterns shape personal identity. Are we all really one? They discuss the impact of societal conditioning, the power of gamifying daily life, and why thinking about work and discipline differently can lead to a more fulfilling and energized, zesty existence.“It's a collection of various collective consciousnesses that one individual is tapping into at any given moment.”“I used to have a very toxic relationship with work. Then I realized—I don't have to work. Who said I have to work? I choose to play instead.”"The more energy you have, the more you can create your own reality. When you're drained, you default to following other people's rules. But when you have energy, you feel bold enough to make things up as you go.”“I choose to have a playful attitude and I'm gamifying all my tasks so life feels fun and exciting, even when I do daily life stuff.”“If you outsource too much, you can lose touch with reality. One man I know outsourced everything, and his business started crumbling because he was too disconnected."“We don't have to change the current systems. It's more constructive to design your own system within them, one that works for you and keeps you energized.”This episode is an invitation to rethink the way we navigate work, identity, and play. You don't have to work 9-5, grind your way to the top, or do anything the way other people say to. Whether it's shifting your mindset, questioning outdated societal narratives, or gamifying your daily tasks like a game of Mario Kart, Klára and Chelsea encourage listeners to scuba dive into self-inquiry and personal experimentation to create a life that feels truly aligned.Connect with Klara:

I can still remember the faded, chipped blue print of my childhood game of Memory. The thick cardboard squares we flipped in search of pairs, thrilled when we found a match, frustrated when we accidentally revealed a match to our opponent. I've played a million games now as a parent too, watching my children's eyes light up when they rack up more matches than I do, which is pretty much every time. I think my daughter was beating me consistently by the time she was four. The memory game seems to stick in our game culture like no other. I see a new twist on it everywhere, most recently National Parks memory when I stepped into the store at Sequoia National Park last week.  So how can we use this go-to in the classroom to gamify ELA? Well, in a million ways. Let's talk about how you can make your own memory game, with pretty much any material you want to cover.

Stuck. Lost. Trapped in the same cycle, no matter how much you plan, learn, or dream. If you've ever felt this way, you're not alone. In this episode, **Shiva Dhana** unpacks the hidden forces that keep people stuck—overthinking, fear, identity struggles, scattered focus, and the illusion of motivation—while revealing how to break free. Through personal stories of his own crossroads, from leaving medicine to navigating uncertainty and rebuilding from scratch, he shares the mindset shifts and strategies that helped him move forward. Whether it's conquering perfectionism, silencing the fear of judgment, or mastering the power of small, consistent actions, this episode is packed with insights to help you escape stagnation and build momentum. If you're ready to stop spinning your wheels, tune in and start rewriting your story. Top 5 Takeaways from This Episode 1. Overthinking & Perfectionism Keep You Stuck – The need to get everything "just right" can paralyze action. Instead of obsessing over perfection, focus on consistent progress. Done is better than perfect. 2. Fear of Judgment is Just a Projection – Worrying about what others think can stop you from moving forward. Most criticism comes from people who aren't taking action themselves—don't let their fears become yours. 3. Identity Shapes Your Success – You don't just *do* things; you *become* the type of person who naturally does them. Instead of setting goals like “read 24 books,” aim to *become* a reader. Identity shifts create lasting change. 4. One Goal at a Time Wins the Game – Trying to do everything at once leads to burnout and failure. Prioritize a single focus, master it, then move to the next. Success compounds. 5. Gamify & Systematize Your Growth – Motivation is unreliable, but systems work. Turn daily tasks into a game, track small wins, and create habits that make progress automatic. Momentum builds through action, not waiting for inspiration.

Rob is again joined by members of his sales team to talk all things sales and money! They talk about customer deadlines, creating your own systems and what it really takes to be good at sales. They also ask Rob their top questions including how to follow up on a sale like a pro! KEY TAKEAWAYS If you aren’t money hungry as a salesperson then you are in the wrong job. It can be better to get a no to a sale first, so you can work out how to turn it into a yes. No is a form of communication. Rob isn’t sure there’s such a thing as being too pushy in sales. If you are trying to help someone why is it bad to be pushy about it? Setting clear deadlines for customers is a useful tool for following up and closing sales. However, it also means that you have to be firm and may risk losing sales. A set deadline changes the power dynamic and will make customers take you seriously. If you feel comfortable with the amount you earn, how can you make yourself feel more uncomfortable to unlock a higher earning power? Being able to weed out time wasters in sales is very powerful. It will save you time and help you concentrate your efforts on the clients who will convert If you can locate leads from organic sources, you can help them grow by diverting attention and money towards them. Track your own data, keep records of everything you do and test how you deal with clients. BEST MOMENTS “I don’t think people are money focused enough” “What’s wrong with being pushy?” “You want a no from the right person” “You have to risk losing a sale to get it” “You have to teach them [the customer] how to treat you” “Gamify and challenge yourself to reset the thermostat of where you’re comfortable [with money]” VALUABLE RESOURCES https://robmoore.com/ bit.ly/Robsupporter https://robmoore.com/podbooks rob.team ABOUT THE HOST Rob Moore is an author of 9 business books, 5 UK bestsellers, holds 3 world records for public speaking, entrepreneur, property investor, and property educator.

Are you ready to ditch the money shame and raise kids who are financially savvy and confident? Then grab your coffee (or wine, let's be honest), because this is a must-read! We had the pleasure of interviewing Dr. Julia Myers, a pharmacist, healthcare executive, and a mom of FIVE, who's on a mission to empower families with generational wisdom—financial wisdom, that is.Dr. Myers' story isn't your typical “I had it all figured out from day one” narrative. She struggled with a lackluster financial education growing up, and a health crisis unexpectedly changed the course of her career. This event became her “aha moment,” the launching pad for her mission to teach kids (and parents!) about money.Dr. Myers stresses that teaching kids about money isn't just about handing them allowance. It's about creating a culture of financial wellness that integrates seamlessly into family life. Her approach is less about strict budgeting and more about building a solid financial foundation through open communication, shared experiences, and playful learning.She reminds us that the old notions of "the American Dream"—a house, a job, and a pension—no longer apply in the fast-paced world of millennials, Gen Z, and Gen Alpha. Today's world is all about adaptability and embracing the power of multiple income streams. Dr. Myers encourages parents to help their children cultivate the same entrepreneurial spirit that they need to navigate this new financial landscape.Five Key Takeaways from Dr. Myers' Interview:Start Early: It's never too early to start teaching your kids about money. Even young children can grasp basic financial concepts.Open Communication: Make money a regular topic of conversation within your family. Break the taboo!Gamify the Learning: Leverage apps and fun activities to make learning about money engaging and less intimidating.Digital First, Then Physical: Introduce kids to digital financial tools early. Yes, the digital world is scary, but it's also unavoidable.Teach Values over Budgeting: Focus on building your family's financial values before delving into strict budgets.Dr. Myers' own journey is punctuated with humorous anecdotes—from her kids' hilarious encounters with cash-only laundromats to their surprisingly savvy approach to budgeting for their first car. These stories illustrate the importance of empowering kids to learn from their own experiences, even the mistakes.She's a strong advocate for teaching kids to pursue their passions, even if that means juggling multiple income streams, side hustles, or even skipping the traditional college route. The emphasis is on return on investment (ROI) of their education—a timely reminder for any parent facing the daunting costs of college.Dr. Myers also shares valuable resources, including her own website and the DinnerTable.com community, designed to bring families together for supportive discussions on family finances. Whether you are struggling with basic budgeting or navigating complex investment strategies, Dr. Myers encourages you to redefine your own money story and share it with your children.Watch the original VIDEO HERE!Connect with Dr. Julia Myers HERE!Love the show?

The NBA 82-game regular season is just around the corner. Balls are bouncing. Lineups are forming. Ideas are flowing. Friend of The Finder Nate Jones, an NBA agent and entrepreneur, joins the pod to propose a wild way to juice fan interest in the NBA regular season: Gamify it.If the owners aren't willing to shorten the season from 82 games, there might be an alternative way to raise the stakes and make games matter more. Pulling from his affinity for professional wrestling and Monopoly, Jones introduces The Gauntlet, a points-based system that incentivizes teams to play more and play harder throughout the season. Instead of the standings being decided by win-loss record, Jones argues for a points-based system that awards bonus points for wins in (but not limited to) the following circumstances:* Second-night of a back-to-back* In-Season Tournament* On the road, especially deep in a road trip.* National TVThe goal is to transform the NBA from an Inventory Sport into an Event Sport without putting players more at risk for injury. We also look at interesting comps to the Continental Basketball Association 7-point system from the 80s and the FedEx Cup on the PGA Tour.OK, Finders:What do we like? What do we not like?
