Life as Usual Video Blog: Goals

In this video I discuss:

  • Why having a goal is better than no goal
  • Some linguistic stuff about the word “governor.”
  • How shortening your time cycle around a goal makes it much more useful.

I would like to know how long your “goal time period” is.

Feel free to email me at adam@theadamthomas.com and let’s talk about it.

Check out this video on how she did it and got the ammo to start the research that has helped her change lives.

Busy is Bullsh*t – Life as Usual Video Blog

It is the secret to mediocre work

I think that saying you’re busy is nonsense. Here is why:

https://apis.google.com/js/platform.js

function onYtEvent(payload) {
if (payload.eventType == ‘subscribe’) {
// Add code to handle subscribe event.
} else if (payload.eventType == ‘unsubscribe’) {
// Add code to handle unsubscribe event.
}
if (window.console) { // for debugging only
window.console.log(‘YT event: ‘, payload);
}
}

Relaunching the Video Blog! Life as Usual Season 2

Back to Wednesday Multimedia Posts

The video blog is back!

YouTube: Subscribe!

Last year I did an experiment and launched a video blog series.

Every week, I focused on shipping a video on a particular topic. After 16 episodes, I decided to take a break, put together the lessons I learned, and call in a few favors to ratchet up the production quality.

The result: Life as Usual Season 2.

Each Wednesday I will promote the new video for the week, along with some easy ways to share.

This form of a post, as always, is a work in progress, and the format is due to change (Next Wednesday will look a little different).

Welcome to the second season of the Life as Usual Video blog.
