Happy New Year, Becca, Happy New Year, Franchaska, New Year, New US. Right, Um, yeah, yeah, What are your New Year's resolutions this year? I would like to be better at my job in my life without actually having to do anything at all to achieve any of Michaels. That seems unreasonable. I know, I'm just being honest with you. What about you? What are your New Year's resolutions? Honestly, I feel the same as you. I'm confident that I can better in every way, but I have absolutely no

plan to do that. But all that changes right now. We're going to do better. It's a new year, and we're going to actually try to change our lives with a podcast. I'm Francesco Leaving and I'm back in Greenfield on our new show Works for Me. We're going to attempt to fix all of our flaws using the productivity tips and tricks that people claim really truly work. This is how the show is gonna work. Each week, one of us will present a common yet persistent workplace problem

that we're having. Like me, I cannot focus on a given task for the life of me. For me, I'm terrible at being a human being in the morning. But we're not just going to complain about our problems. We're actually going to try to fix them. There's a whole world of productivity, ideas and products out there promising to make us better, and we're going to try them out on our problems and tell you how it goes, and

maybe some of them will also work for you. I don't know about you, but I'm excited to be my best self. I'm sure everything will go smoothly. I'm really messing up basically, like I'm getting black pen places it shouldn't be headed person news a couple of times. It's just so hard to think about what happens after you get out of bed, when you're still in bed. Okay, I guess that's wishful thinking. Works for me. Premire Friday, January eleven.
