单集文稿 ...

• 00:03

  So have you ever noticed how hard it's become to focus these days?

• 00:06

  To know what really matters, to get out of the stuck zone, start building momentum, and actually finish the stuff that is truly important to you?

• 00:15

  It was already pretty hard in before times, and now we might as well just go ahead and ten x that challenge.

• 00:20

  And if you're feeling this, you're not alone.

• 00:22

  The struggle is real.

• 00:24

  But what if there was a way to quickly figure out what matters, to focus on that, to dislodge that wheel spinning inertia and get unstuck and go from idea to done to become a bit of a productivity Jedi?

• 00:36

  Well, that is what we are talking about in today's powerful best of conversation with one of my closest advisors and regular collaborator, multi award winning author of the book start finishing and founder of productive Flourishing, Charlie Gilkey.

• 00:50

  And we dive into Charlie's specific ideas around why so much of our effort to be productive fails and how to rewire our brains and our schedules and our actions to more easily see beyond all of the distractions and focus in on the stuff that we've started, choose what really matters, what's worth finishing, and then take immediate action to make it happen.

• 01:10

  And along the way, we also explore how Charlie's really unique background as a philosopher military officer, productivity strategist and consultant to creative professionals, founders and fast growth entrepreneurial teams has shaped his powerful lens on going from idea to done.

• 01:27

  So exciting to share this best of conversation with you.

• 01:30

  I'm Jonathan Fields, and this is good life project.

• 01:41

  It's always kind of interesting for me when I sit down in the studio with somebody who is not only a friend, but I actually know really, really well and who we have actually been co conspirators in business and life and all sorts of different things.

• 01:59

  And as we sit here today, it is the eve of you launching a fantastic new book called Start Finishing, and we're going to dive into that a whole bunch.

• 02:09

  But I want to take a step back in time because what I've learned over the years, too, is that when I get to sit down with an old friend, there are also gaps.

• 02:19

  Because as it happens with friends, you kind of just hit the ground rolling with whatever topics you're interested in in your current life.

• 02:27

  And very often you don't actually know a ton about what got them to that place in life.

• 02:32

  So we're going to fill in a little bit of those gaps.

• 02:36

  So when we first met, it was, what, ten years ago?

• 02:39

  It was about ten years ago, yeah.

• 02:41

  Ish, right?
