In this perspective-shifting episode, Madeleine Dore (author of I Didn’t Do The Thing Today: Letting Go of Productivity Guilt) chats about all sorts of important ideas, especially as summer’s restful embrace invites us to slow down and play. Madeleine discusses why ‘perfection’ is a flawed concept (and what’s better than striving for perfection), the importance of taking productivity down off its pedestal, the bright side of not completing your to do list, the importance of being curious to question where our productivity guilt comes from, as well as broadening the measure of a day to celebrate the variances there within (as well as the variances within ourselves). Madeleine provides insight on the daunting nature of ‘space’ that rest affords us, practical tips for living presently in our days, the ways Madeleine chooses to measure her days beyond ‘being productive’, why the very ‘quantifiable’ measure of productivity is actually an imperfect metric too and what the term ‘precrastination’ means. It’s a BIG one! After the conversation, Diana shares her plans for rest this summer and why she’s both nervous and excited about taking some time off.I'm all about interesting projects with interesting people!
