Summary
Get your productivity, effectiveness, and efficiency into high gear with this episode with Rob. He lays out the keys to ruthlessly prioritising your most important task in the moment, maximising the leverage of your time, and how to avoid procrastination. Rob pushes you to be fully present, maintain focus, and align your activities to move the needle on income generation!
Rob Reveals:
- There is only one spontaneous "right action" task you should be doing at any time.
- Measure priority tasks by income generation and fear/difficulty level.
- Being productive is output volume; being effective is the quality of output.
- Lists create overwhelm; pick one priority item and fully focus on executing it.
- Challenge yourself and others when conversations enable procrastination.
- Planning helps the future but stay present; ask "What's most important right now?"
- You can't blame others for distraction without your permission.
BEST MOMENTS
"Procrastination is not being able to control an emotion."
"So eat the, eat the frog. He wrote a book called eat that frog. And eat the frog means the very thing you don't want to do that you've been putting off, you do it immediately."
"It matters, is this the right phone number for the phone call I'm gonna do now? And, am I gonna give them my full attention?
"People are not what they say. People are what they do. And that's not a criticism. It's just what it is."
"I want you to do those because the more money you make and I'm not gonna pay you more money if I don't make more money."

| 0:00.0 | There is only one thing that you could or should be doing in any moment and you are either doing the right thing or the wrong thing |
| 0:11.5 | Hi, it's Rob Moore here and this is something a bit different. |
| 0:14.0 | I'm actually in, what would you call this? |
| 0:17.0 | Our big boardroom, our big glass box at Progressive HQ, |
| 0:21.0 | and I'm here with 15 of my team and every two weeks I do a special |
| 0:28.5 | session for my team generally around mindset but we're doing something a bit different today, |
| 0:34.1 | and that is I'm going to talk about being hyper-productive, ruthlessly effective and efficient, |
| 0:40.8 | and actually talk about the difference between productive, effective, efficient, |
| 0:45.3 | how to get more done in less time. I mean I did write the book on this subject |
| 0:49.2 | the book is called Life Leverage and that's this. So if you're listening somewhere and |
| 0:54.6 | you're not a member of my team, you're lucky that you've got access to this |
| 0:58.4 | content because normally you'd have to work for me or with me or pay. So let's get into this. |
| 1:04.4 | There is only one thing that you could or should be doing in any moment |
| 1:11.0 | and you are either doing the right thing or the wrong thing. |
| 1:15.4 | Now I remember D.Pak Chopra he called he called it spontaneous right action and he said in the millions of decisions that you could make |
| 1:25.7 | there is one spontaneous right action so people think you can multitask you can't. You can actually only do one thing at once. |
| 1:36.0 | Okay, so you can work out while listening to audio. |
| 1:40.0 | You can walk while doing a phone call. So there are some basic things where you can do two tasks at once. |
| 1:46.4 | But in terms of concentration, I don't believe the human mind is able to |
| 1:51.4 | intensely concentrate on any more than one thing. |
| 1:55.0 | So what procrastination is, is your mind moving away from the important thing |
| 2:01.0 | to something else. It's not two things, it's moving from one thing to the other. |
