Successful people get it done. No frills, no frowns.

4. We complicate productivity
When you notice yourself trying to go to distractions or busywork, pause. Notice the fear of uncertainty. Breathe.
Explore the feeling. See how it feels in your body. Stay with this physical feeling for a minute, and learn that you are OK despite this fear of uncertainty. There is a basic goodness in your heart that will always be there, even if you don’t know how this task or any moment will turn out.
5. Not Too Old To Code
This is an interesting Kickstarter campaign raising funds to complete a book on learning to code (and making a living from it) as an adult. I love the idea of 1) learning to code as an adult and 2) crowdfunding a passion project. Good luck Scott!
Have a great week!
