“How can I be more productive and get things done?“

How many times have you asked yourself this question?

Perhaps you feel that you’re not doing all the things you should be doing, or maybe you’re “stuck”, putting in too much time into certain things and are left with little time for the things that are actually going to help you get more clients and grow your business.

In a previous episode of the 360 Entrepreneur Podcast, Foundr Magazine founder and editor Nathan Chan brought up the pomodoro technique, a tactic he uses to be more productive and get things done.

I had heard of the pomodoro technique before, and I’d recommend you give it a try if you have never tried it.

In today’s episode, however, we’re going to talk about another powerful strategy that, if implemented following the step-by-step plan we discuss, is going to really help you be more productive and have more time to dedicate to the things that will contribute to your business’ growth.

Joining us is blogger, podcaster, author and productivity expert Jonathan Milligan. During our conversation, he shares his productivity hacks, talks about the common productivity mistakes people make, the power of a calendar to-do list and why you should do creative work first.

Since chatting with Jonathan, I have changed the way I do certain things and I feel much more productive every single day. The same’s going to happen to you, I’m sure!

Jonathan Milligan is a blogger (over at JonathanMilligan.com and BloggingYourPassion.com), productivity expert and author. His latest book, The 15 Success Traits of Pro Bloggers, is a proven roadmap that will help you become a full-time blogger. As you’ll hear during the interview, though, the book provides valuable, actionable tips for pretty much every podcaster, vlogger and content creator too.

Jonathan is also the host of two podcasts: Simple Life Habits and Blogging Your Passion. The first helps people be more productive, get things done, and live a better life altogether, while in the latter Jonathan shares powerful blogging tips and best practices.

Featured in the likes of Business Week, EntrepreneurOnFire, Michael Hyatt and Lifehacker, Jonathan joins us to discuss his new book, his best productivity hacks and tools that are going to make you more productive, whether you already consider yourself a productive person or not.
