Maximize Your Productivity as an Artist - Time Management Tips 2024

Okay, so we kick off this episode with a 20-minute dive into politics, recorded right after Joe Biden dropped out of the race. Mike makes some bold predictions in a fit of rage (spoiler: they’re not exactly coming true, lol).

Once we get past the politics, we dive into the core challenges of managing time as an artist. The artist’s life is uniquely difficult when it comes to workflow, consistency, and accountability. However, developing strong self-improvement habits around time management and productivity is essential to maintaining focus and discipline amidst unpredictable schedules.

In this episode, we explore key points to help artists maximize their productivity, including:

• The deeper reasons behind productivity and how it can simplify your life.
• Capturing, clarifying, organizing, and prioritizing your work effectively.
• Time management techniques that boost productivity while minimizing distractions.
• The importance of regular reviews to stay on track.
• How to balance deep creative work with incremental tasks that build a strong business foundation.

This is an episode you’ll want to revisit regularly to test new strategies and refine your approach. It’s packed with practical, stress-tested advice for mastering time management and self-improvement as an artist. Enjoy!
