About the Book
Are you busier than ever, but still not getting the most important things done? Stop chasing checkmarks and discover the secret to purposeful productivity and a path to a more balanced, meaningful life. Branches is a value-based, priority-focused system that draws lessons from the natural world to reveal a simple, yet powerful approach to stay grounded and connected — no matter what comes your way. The key, it turns out, is to focus less on “what” you do and more on “why.”
“The tree wastes nothing. Leaves that fall are broken down and reabsorbed. Limbs may be lost, but new ones can grow in their place. Everything you learn along the way, all your successes and failures, will be used. The potential of the mightiest oak exists within the tiniest acorn. And even the most imperfect of trees possesses a unique character and beauty all its own. The realization of that potential is within each of us.“
TheProductivityParadox
In the 1970s and 1980s, computing power accessible to American businesses grew a hundredfold from what was available in the 1960s, resulting in a significant increase in information technology investment. Yet during this same period, U.S. labor productivity actually decreased from 3% to 1%. This disparity was dubbed “the productivity paradox” by economists.1
Have you noticed a similar trend in your own life — the more powerful the productivity tool, the less you seem to actually
accomplish? Or, that despite getting “more” done, your most important goals remain elusively and persistently out of reach?
With an almost unlimited ability to capture and input every aspect of our lives into pocket-sized computers, today, to-do lists can grow without bounds. You may find yourself working longer and harder, yet still struggle to get the most important things done.
But digital productivity tools, themselves, aren’t the source of the problem. They just allow us to dig deeper holes to bury ourselves in. And reverting to a paper planner isn’t the solution.
The answer is greater focus on why we do, rather than what we do.
Inside You’ll Learn How to:
- Achieve balance across important areas of your life.
- Set and reach transformative goals.
- Get what matters most done.
- Maintain greater alignment with values & priorities.
