You might recognize Paul's name. Paul is a productivity blogger and consultant from New Zealand. He was part of a fun productivity roundtable episode we did towards the end of 2016 -- that was episode 197 if you want to go back and check it out. At that time, Paul was putting the wheels in motion on his consulting business centered around specific software tools. If you can hitch your cart to a rising tide of interest in a particular tool, and become the go-to expert in that space, you can do really well. Paul was able to leave his day job within a couple of months of starting his business. He was then able to go traveling with his wife for 6-months while working 15-20 hours a week from his laptop. After arriving back home, he started working full-time on his consulting business. “I noticed the impact of that straight away, within a couple of months I had doubled my income,” Paul told me. It's clear Paul has figured out this business model. This episode is packed with ideas you might be able to apply to your own areas of expertise. Maybe you'll even uncover some areas of expertise you never really considered that special before.

In this episode of the Thoughtful Entrepreneur, your host Josh Elledge speaks to productivity expert, https://paulminors.com/ (Paul Minors).  Paul started off by consulting entrepreneurs on how to learn how to use Asana. He shares that he was inspired to go out on his own and start his own business – and Asana was a great tool for that. He had worked with other businesses in the past on their teams to help them with this program, and figured he could go out on his own by consulting others on how to use the platform. He tested offering it as a service and found there was a serious demand for the expertise he could offer. From there, he added offerings to consult on the use of PipeDrive, which then eventually evolved into the use of Zapier. Zapier is a powerful automation tool that allows users to connect unrelated programs, applications, and softwares in order to integrate their use. Zapier has become a very popular program, and Paul shares that many of his clients wanted consultation on how to combine their CRM with other aspects of their business so that it could be automated. Zapier allows you to plug some of the gaps in your system so that you can do more than previously thought possible to automate your programs. Paul stresses that you should be thinking about automation from early on. You don't want to be in a position where you're too far into the weeds and you have to backtrack in order to automate. Paul and his team consult businesses on how to use these tools to automate their businesses and optimize their growth.  Josh and Paul explore specific ways to utilize automation tools. For one thing, you can utilize Zapier to integrate your CRM with your email marketing tool. You can completely customize your email marketing flow by hooking it up to your CRM. You can also trigger other emails to send seamlessly by integrating these two aspects of your business via an automation tool. You can also utilize various different sequences in your email marketing tool in order to allow your CRM to inform the software to send different emails based on their status as your client. Zapier's purpose is to move information from one platform to another. It can handle anything from email triggers, accounting, administrative tasks, documentation automation, and more. There are countless ways to utilize these types of automation programs with full customization, if you know what to do. This is where experts like Paul come in.  Want to learn more?

I denne episode af Workflow hjælper vi dig med at få styr på den travle hverdag – når du har alt for mange opgaver, og du ikke kan finde ud af, hvordan du skal få tid til det hele. Du kan blive klogere på metoden ‘time blocking'. Time blocking handler basalt set om, at man sætter tids-blokke af i sin kalender til at arbejde på de forskellige opgaver, man har – og husker at indlægge godt med buffertid. Du planlægger tiden i din kalender, som om du holdt møder med dig selv. Det giver overblik, viser et realistisk billede af, hvor meget tid du har til dine opgaver, og det fremmer fokus på den opgave, du arbejder med lige nu.Anders fortæller om time blocking og sine egne erfaringer – og giver Nana en opgave. Lyt med – og få inspiration til at få bedre styr på din tid.

Paul Minors is a productivity blogger and virtual consultant. Paul grew his business “on the side” while working full-time and now consults to companies all around the world helping them with tools like Asana, Pipedrive and Zapier. Paul’s website now receives 100,000+ visits per month and his audience of 43,000+ email subscribers love hearing about how to be more productive in business and life.   How to beat procrastination and be productive I got to chat with Paul Minors, who is based in New Zealand.  He’s quite the inspiration for a variety of reasons. First, he started off his business as a ‘side-hustle’ and then quickly discovered that Productivity is his ‘How’.  As we are all in this COVID-19 situation, we may find ourselves with a little more time and maybe it’s time to shift into trying a new adventure of starting a small business. So here are the topics that we covered on how to beat procrastination, the power of time blocking and so much more. How to beat Procrastination The value of stop starting The magic of time blocking How tasks are good intentions We also somehow end up talking about baking, Lockdown Loaf I hope you’ll enjoy this episode and more importantly, staying safe. Quotes: “You can be more productive if you follow the right habits and if you are disciplined enough to follow the right routines and use your tools and technology correctly.” “By being disciplined, you’re following better routines, you’re being more productive, and if you’re getting more done, and being more efficient with your time, you’re actually creating more freedom in your life now because you have more free time. Discipline is like a prerequisite for freedom in your life.” "I'm a big fan of this productivity method called time blocking I don't know what it is actually called, but I call it time blocking or block scheduling you have probably come into different terms before but it is basically this practice of taking task and maybe you have a task list or a notebook with it to list of things that you need to do, or maybe it is just in your head whatever it is, you are taking the task that you need to do and you are actually putting them on into your calendar and blocking up time to do that task."   Connect with Paul: PaulMinors.com |  Twitter | Instagram | LinkedIn   Resource Links: Productivity Blueprint Productivity video training Paul Minors Podcast

A location-independent consulting business that replaces your day job income in a matter of months? That's exactly what Paul Minors accomplished with his virtual software consulting business. You might recognize Paul’s name. Paul is a productivity blogger and consultant from New Zealand. He was part of a fun productivity roundtable episode we did towards the end of 2016 -- that was episode 197 if you want to go back and check it out. What I now know, is that at that time Paul was putting the wheels in motion on his consulting business centered around specific software tools. Which as a side hustle tactic, is fantastic. If you can hitch your cart to a rising tide of interest in a particular tool, and become the go-to expert in that space, you can do really well. And, that’s exactly what Paul has done.

After being a guest on his show, The Paul Minors Podcast, I just had to interview the host himself to be on Technology For Mindfulness. Paul is obsessed with productivity, automation, optimising his time and income so he can live on his own times.Tip of the Day: Task BatchingIt’s productive and cuts down on the mental switching which can be so draining and stressful. Here are a couple of pointers that I do when it comes to batching to help me be more productive. Here are two examples of how task batching can be done:Responding to Messages: This applies to messages like email especially if you run a business, I put calendar appointment for responding to certain types of messages like Accounting or Marketing. Breaking these up into titles really helps as when an email comes in about that particular title, I drag those emails in to those calendar appointments as an attachment so when it comes time to respond to Marketing emails, I’ll open that email in that appointment and run through them. Because I’m focused on marketing at that time, I can get through those tasks because I’m focused on the one task of marketing and I can respond in a productive way.Calendar Appointments for Tasks: I schedule an appointment for a particular kind of tasks I need to complete. So let’s say for instance, this task is again, Marketing. Even though there may be no emails or outstanding items around marketing, I can use this time to tackle my marketing to do list. This will help switch my mental focus to tasks of that type during that period of time.Some of the questions I ask:For people who are feeling overwhelmed or are getting very distracted by technology during the day, what would be an easy thing they could do to be more productive? [3:46]What are some of the tools or processes you should apply to where you are at? [6:53]Suggestions around batching tasks? [14:46]Some of the mental disadvantages of switching tasks and multi tasking [21:25]How do you not get too hung up on categorisation? [22:47]How written records can be really useful as a monitoring and sanity check [26:15]Be objective, data based, scientific and non judgmental when it comes to analysing your task management [27:49]Can you talk about trade offs, suggestions or strategies between having everything on your calendar for personal and professional? [29:40]How can we develop and maintain other habits outside of technology like sleep and exercise? [31:45]Ways you can leverage technology for automation in small ways? [36:27]What you’ll learn:People get caught up in what kind of tool or technology is best for them to automate their life and believe that it will solve all their problems, however it’s more about the habits, routines and how the tool is used [6:06]Pick the tool that’s best for you after doing a bit of research. Get it out of your head and into the tool or system. [7:19]Use due dates to set your intention and plan your time as to when you’d like to do it by rather than when the task is actually due. [10:10]The power of time blocking [13:31]Use your calendar to block out time to work on these tasks so you it forces you to think about how long it will take you to finish these tasks. [12:01]Day to day steps to take with your calendar to time block [15:13]The concept of batching to realise efficiency benefit [18:01]The switching cost [21:32]Paul’s suggestions on what kind of tasks to batch [21:51]Time blocking allows you to reflect on how you went during the week and how you can improve or doing things differently. [23:42]Screenshot your calendar at the start and end of the week and compare what changed [26:21]Having everything on your calendar so you can put in personal and social appointments holistically and analyze balance [28:39]When you see things all in one place, it’s all visual. It helps assessing how time was spent as a whole during the week. [30:21]Technology’s impact on being more mindful when it comes to health and fitness has been positive, especially wearables. [32:45]Put appointments in your calendar for meditation, eat lunch, going for a walk or exercise. [34:40]The best tasks to automate are the repetitive tasks you have to do daily that take mental bandwidth.

This week’s episode was something a little different as I was joined by three of my favorite productivity podcasters, Erik Fisher, Mike Vardy, and Paul Minors. Combined they have more than 300 productivity-themed podcasts under their belts and represent 3 different countries!
