OVERVIEW: Life is life. It's not just work. Mridu Parikh is a productivity coach, best-selling author of Accomplish It, founder of Life is Organized, and host of the Productivity on Purpose Podcast. In today's episode, Jason A. Duprat, Entrepreneur, Healthcare Practitioner, and Host of the Healthcare Entrepreneur Academy podcast, sits down with Mridu to exchange a myriad of best practices on how to live a happier life by maintaining a steady work-life balance. Ready your notepads because this episode is filled with timeless, life-changing insights you would want to remember.   EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS: Mridu's journey of time management and productivity and created a business revolving around helping people "have a real life." The best measurement for productivity is how you feel at the end of the day. Productivity doesn't depend on how much you accomplish but on the significance of what you accomplish. A common struggle is we focus too much on clearing our to-do lists and too little on "what's going to make me feel successful." A common misconception for business owners is they think "success" equals "doing more." Focus more on planning, and you're gonna have less and better doing. The 5 Umbrella to get the most of being productive Mridu provides several real-life examples of how to say no without sounding too dismissive and maintain client relationships. The best project management tool is the one you're going to use. If you're comfortable with Google Docs and it works for you, then use that for now.   TWEETABLE QUOTES: “Life is life.

We all have 100+ things on our to-do lists and probably at least 100 more things in our heads that we need to do. There's no way to remember it all or get it all done. It's pretty common to brain dump a list of to-do's for the day, setting ourselves up for failure because the list is too long, we have too many distractions, and/or we simply lose momentum.   Relate much?   Well, Easily Distracted Entrepreneur, you may continue to be frustrated because you're more focused on the list and checking things off the list than you are on the actual planning of the to-do's. And that's what we're talking about this week on the podcast with productivity coach Mridu Parikh.    Listen in as we talk about the value of the brain dumps, but the power behind the planning. Mridu shares why you should only have five things on your big list and how to approach getting each of those things done. And be sure to listen through to the end, where she shares a tip that will make you feel silly but is sure to help you get that nagging task off your list.   About Mridu Parikh: Ready to get control of all your demands?

Mridu elaborates on her 5 Umbrella Process which she runs her clients through Realize your goals and focus. What is truly important? Make adjustments to your calendar to fit your vision. What would your ideal week look like? Create a system. Everything can be systematized better, be it your personal life or professional life alike. You can never over-systematize. Get a team to delegate tasks off your plate. Boundaries and communication. Saying no is uncomfortable, but there's a way to ease that burden. Mridu provides several real-life examples of how to say no without sounding too dismissive and maintain client relationships. Setting your schedule is helpful not only for us but also for our clients. If you're delegating, you should expect 80% of what you would be able to do. It's important to look at projects and recognize which ones you can delegate. Training takes time, but not delegating it wastes more time. The best project management tool is the one you're going to use. If you're comfortable with Google Docs and it works for you, then use that for now. Think of different themes for your days to create consistency (e.g. Wednesdays are Podcast Days. Fridays are Admin and Finance Days, etc.) When bombarded by a multitude of tasks, focus on 5 things – ideally 3 Professional and 2 Personal Agendas Mridu recommends the book "Atomic Habits" by James Clear   3 KEY POINTS Productivity is a state of emotion.

Do you always feel like you have a never-ending to-do list?  Like nothing seems to get checked off, and as soon as that alarm goes off in the morning, you feel like you are already behind before your day has even begun?   Then, when your day does begin and you start ticking the things off that you want to get done, someone needs your help with a consultation, a client, or to run and pick the kids up from school, and then your list of priorities gets totally reshuffled.  You often find yourself lying awake at night, going through ALL the things you didn't get done, instead of focusing on the wins of the day. You're left feeling overwhelmed, stressed, and always behind with your business.   This is a feeling I know ALL too well. It is why I started becoming a Salon Business Coach, because I see it far too often. As a Salon Owner, you end up wearing too many hats and not having enough time to do ‘all the things'…in your business, with your team, with your family and god forbid you have ANY time leftover for you! So, that is why I want to introduce you to the ever-so-lovely, Mridu Parikh.   Mridu is the founder of Life is Organised, a company that helps female business owners know exactly what they need to do to become more organised. Mridu is also a business coach, as well as a mum to her two babies!  She has almost the exact same career journey as mine, so I knew that what she had to say about helping business owners with balancing overwhelm and stress, with all your demands and distractions (with your team at work and your team at home), would be a valuable listen for you!   I know the advice that Mridu has on this topic will leave you with strategies to make your business and life more productive… so keep listening to hear what she has to say!  Here are three reasons why you should listen to the full episode: Discover Mridu's expert planning tips in the Salon Learn how to avoid overwhelm and stress in your business with this one strategy.

Overwhelm can paralyze and keep us from getting even the most simple projects completed. As busy entrepreneurs, we need to have a few tips and tricks up our sleeves to ensure we stay on track and don't let overwhelm stop our progress. Mridu Parikh is known as the stress stopper. She is the founder and owner of Life is Organized. She is a productivity speaker and coach obsessed with focusing on what matters most and keeping stress and overwhelm at bay.  Mridu is the author of Accomplish It: 7 Simple Actions To Get the Right Things Done and Achieve Your Goals, a book about uncomplicating life by taking control of our time. It consists of seven simple actions that can help us stop overwhelm, stay motivated, and feel accomplished. She is also the host of the Productivity On Purpose Podcast. We have a conversation about some of the pitfalls of overwhelm and how simple proven strategies can help us in all areas of our lives. We talk about clearing your desk, turning off notifications, calendar blocking, and the Pomodoro technique. Mridu starts her day with power hours, where she schedules that critical task for the first hour of the day. This can be for business or personal, like writing for an hour each day. We talk about knowing your priorities and how small things like taking 5-10 minutes to plan your next day can significantly impact you. It's essential to write things down to free your brain for creativity and learn to say “no, not now” graciously. We go over batching, systems, and more clever time-saving actions.  And be sure to subscribe to The Self-Employed Life in Apple podcasts or follow us on Spotify or wherever you listen to podcasts so you don't miss an episode.

This week on the High Wire Woman podcast, Rosanna Berardi is getting organized. Her guest, Mridu Parikh, is the founder of Life is Organized. Mridu is also a productivity expert, author, and the host of the Productivity on Purpose Podcast. She joins Rosanna to share tips on how High Wire Women can get organized, despite their busy schedules. You'll hear Rosanna and Mridu talk about: How Mridu started Life is Organized. The same strategy you use to organize your clothing is the same strategy you can use to organize your life.  In your everyday tasks and errands, identify the goal and purpose of those tasks and act accordingly. When you start there, you can reverse engineer.  Work with the time and space you have.  Declutter and take out tasks that don't fit, or delegate where you can. Get rid of what doesn't make you happy, and what you don't enjoy doing.  Create a system that makes work easier for yourself, and establish and uphold boundaries around that system.  Mridu talks about the services she provides to her clients. With the right roadmap, guidelines and the right hands holding them, even the most chaotically organized people can go to a more in control, and more organized lifestyle.  Resources Rosanna Berardi | LinkedIn Rosanna Berardi | Berardi Immigration Law High Wire Woman Mridu Parikh | LinkedIn | Twitter Life Is Organized Accomplish It: Seven Simple Actions To Get The Right Things Done and Achieve Your Goals Productivity on Purpose Podcast

We have all our own strategies for creating productivity in our lives: Pomodoro method, to-do lists (both digital and analog), time blocking, time tracking, you name it. And I've tried it all, to some success. But rather than writing and rewriting your to-do list from day to day and week to week (you know who you are!), what if you had a true system to follow that ensured you got it all done so you could achieve work-life harmony? That's exactly what this week's guest, Mridu Parikh, gives us the framework that we need to make that happen. Tune in as she shares that framework in detail and how she makes it work in her business. She also shares how we can shorten that to-do list and simplify how we actually get the work done.

And I don't think a lot of people realize that. So we kind of go into that it must be this way because I thought that way before not realizing that we actually have control over that. Mridu Parikh: Absolutely. Now, I think if there was one takeaway, I would say for all entrepreneurs is we have fallen into this, this belief that, that we have no control. Right? That we live in a world that we're always on the receiving end, where we're always reacting. And the truth is, you have the ability to retrain yourself. And when you do, your perception in your industry, in your business, by your clients, by your family members is going to be so much more empowered and strong and positive when you are in control, right? Like both at work and at home.

I am sure I'm not the only one that has felt like the entire week has just fallen apart. The worst part is when you feel like you don't know where to start to pick up the pieces to get back on track. Don't beat yourself anymore because I have a guest on the podcast today that is going to help you turn those days or weeks around so that you can get back in control and get rid of the overwhelm. In this episode Mridu shares:How to create a to-do list that really worksWhat do you do when your day/week goes falls off trackHelp for those that feel like they can't have structureTips for how do get the most important things done in a dayABOUT MRIDUOverloaded moms work with Mridu to prioritize and systemize so they take control of their demands and distractions.

Today, Nikki's guest is Mridu Parik, a Sales Maven Society member whose goal in life is to help working women wake up with a plan so they can conquer all their demands while staying focused. Mridu needs Nikki's help in taking her two or three times a year group program and making it into a year-long evergreen program, plus much more on this episode of the Sales Maven podcast. Listen as Nikki shares some reasons why having clients at different levels of the program can be a good thing and how having an offer at the end of the program to continue working with you is beneficial. Nikki also discusses converting clients and giving a time-sensitive bonus offer with reminder emails to increase awareness of your programs. Nikki discusses some evergreen strategies, why it's good to use the same content month to month, and finding out what converts clients. Trying to sign up people to a long-term program can be detrimental because most people have trouble with even short-term commitments. Nikki wants Mridu to end each of her podcast episodes with a call to action. It can be the same content because you might be speaking to people who had never listened to your podcast before or just never really paid attention until they were ready to act. Mridu shares that she loves being a part of the Sales Maven Society because the caliber of people is amazing, but her most favorite part is when Nikki is asked to rewrite members' sales questions and how she helps anyone who needs help with sales language, she learns so much from this. Do you want to know how to use your questions? Nikki invites you to join the Sales Maven Society. This is an opportunity for you and Nikki to work together, you bring your questions, concerns, and sales issues, and she provides answers and guidance to boost your confidence.

The most common thing I hear from entrepreneurs is that they are overwhelmed.

In this episode, Sarah sits down with productivity expert and founder of Life is Organized, Mridu Parikh. She's spent almost a decade as a Professional Organizer, in-home and coaching clients around the world. Now Mridu help ambitious women go from overwhelmed and overloaded to in control, (and confident that nothing will fall through the cracks), so they can thrive at work and at home. This one's for all the moms who are suddenly home-schooling, attending video conferences, trying new recipes and managing this new normal. I've been talking a lot recently about how we'll have a “before” the virus and an “after” the virus perspective on life. Much like our ancestors did about World War II, they were always very clear about life “before the war” and “after the war”. As we edited and planned to release this episode, at the beginning of week 2 of our own quarantine, it was abundantly clear that this was a “before the virus” interview. Listen for what life was like for you before we started this quarantine, when Mridu talks about all the “dings” and “beeps” that can make us feel so distracted, notice if that's still happening for you. Have things changed a little bit? Does it feel the same for you? How can you apply what she teaches us to how you're living now and the distractions we're facing now?

Mridu helps ambitious people get control of their time, energy, and habits, even when they are overwhelmed by demands and distractions. As a productivity coach, keynote speaker, and best-selling author she teaches people how to focus, overcome procrastination, and squash anxiety. I had a great time talking with Mridu about her journaling habits (that is, if she has them), her thoughts on capturing ideas and thoughts and how she does that, and we specifically dive into the seven simple actions that she describers in her book. Talking Points Mridu and I talk about why people stay in a "state of stuckness"? (3:31) Does Mridu journal? If so, how does she journal? (7:25) How does Mridu get people to take their energy levels into account when making to do lists and accomplishing goals? (10:11) We discuss how to balance recurring simple tasks with bigger, harder tasks (11:57) What are The Seven Simple Actions? (17:57) How do you figure out when to ask for help and for what? (24:45) This is something Mridu said no to after realizing it would be too much (27:16) How does Mridu help people with the idea of writing things down consistently? (31:10) Quote "Every time you think 'I'll remember that later,' switch that and think 'I won't remember that later'." - Mridu Parikh Helpful Links https://lifeisorganized.com/ (Life is Organized) https://productivityist.com/podcast203/ (Episode 203: The Evolution of Getting Things Done with David Allen) https://amzn.to/2UfWipZ (Accomplish It: 7 Simple Actions to Get the Right Things Done and Achieve Your Goals) https://www.joerogan.com/ (The Productivityist Podcast Pick of the Week: The Joe Rogan Experience) http://thebigready.com/ (Join me at The BIG Ready on February 29, 2020) http://productivityist.com/fivedollars/ (Take my 30 Days of TimeCrafting fundamentals course) Remember that simple isn't the same as easy. So while Mridu revealed 7 simple actions you can take to accomplish what you need and want to do, that doesn't mean it will be easy to do them. My advice is to start small and build from there. Layer more and more of your ambitions using this formula Mridu shared over time rather than all at once and you'll have a better chance of accomplishing "it" going forward.

Joining me on this episode is Mridu Parikh - the woman behind Life is Organized. Mridu is a productivity coach, business strategist, speaker, and trainer. She made it her goal to help individuals get clear on their priorities through effective time management, efficient processes, systems, and life-changing habits – to do more in less time.

Here are just a few of the things you'll hear and learn about in this episode: How she reveres simplicity as the easiest way to introduce a process, and the importance of writing things down (2:19). Working with other people, how to get them motivated to do a task or enforce a process into their life and be consistent about it. (6:20). The concept of the learning curve, and how to speed up this often-tedious phase through research and by reaching out to people (8:37). Her insights on alignment as a product of goals, action plans and prioritization, how to make these happen through the concept of ‘two-week sprints' (11:41), and samples to explain how it works (13:40). The importance of improving communication and technology, and intertwining the two to enhance processes for an individual and/or a team (16:14). The tool that she's been using which allows for transparency and easy collaboration, and the how and why she chose this specific tool (18:07; 20:01).
