Professionals taking business or other
productivity-related courses, but struggling to
gain momentum.
Many people are sharing listicles, TED Talks,
productivity apps and news articles.
Here’s what I see among professionals right now...
14. 14
They were taught being ambitious
means
WORKING HARD, DOING A LOT AND
HAVING NO TIME OR ENERGY!
The Productivity TRAP
15. 15
These professionals have incredible
ambition, but don’t know how to take
their productivity to the next level to
achieve the results they deserve.
Most professionals feel like work-life
balance is a myth and having a strong
work ethic = struggle.
Many people try productivity
strategies here and there, and some
are helpful to an extent, but nothing
is really solving their overwhelm or
bringing them closer to their goals.
16. 16
The Real Problem: You haven’t made the important
shifts, yet!
And it could be as simple as you just don’t know
what they are -
until NOW
Can you relate?
17. 17
Once you’ve made the shifts …
• You'll have complete clarity on how to create
time for the things that are important to you
• You'll be confident in how you structure your
day and approach your daily work
• You'll master the routines that keep you
focused and working smarter, not harder
• You’ll understand how to breath through glass
ceilings and achieve what you’ve been desiring
• You’ll create a liberated, no-stress, freedom-
lifestyle and follow your calling

From international communications to
Productivity and Ambitions Consultant
I went from anxious and desiring more time for
travel and friends to an international career,
traveling the world for work and pleasure.
Now I help ambitious people turn their efforts
into results by improving their productivity
systems. They’re kicking procrastination, guilt
and anxiety to the curb while making time for
themselves, increasing their value in the new
economy and achieving the life they desire.
A little more about me…
20. 20
I spoke with hundreds
of Ambitious
Professionals last
year, some with show-
stopping results and
some struggling
tremendously.
21. 21
But the Top Achievers
consistently did these 5
things - no matter what
their profession and their
goals.
22. 22
I, too, have made these
shifts when I went from
ambitious but feeling
anxious and overwhelmed
to consistently achieving
my goals, both personal and
professional, faster than
ever.

Why ask “why”?
“He who has a why can endure any how.”
-Nietzsche
Shift 1 : KNOW YOUR WHY
26. 26
What if I don’t know my
WHY?
Shift 1 : KNOW YOUR WHY
27. 27
What would you do with one extra
hour TODAY?
Shift 1 : KNOW YOUR WHY
28. 1 extra hour per day = 365 hours per year or 45 eight-hour
work days.
•What would you do with all that time?
•What will you do with your 1 extra hour
TODAY?
What could that hour add up to?
29. 29
If you DO know your WHY…
Go a step further
Keep asking “Why” until you have your core reason.
It should be specific and personal.
Shift 1 : KNOW YOUR WHY
30. 30
Why ask “why”?
Your WHY becomes your your CORE driver and
MOTIVATOR that underlies the change.
Shift 1 : KNOW YOUR WHY
31. 31
“What you do simply proves what you
believe.”
-Simon Sinek
Shift 1 : KNOW YOUR WHY
32. 32
A few examples of goals I have achieved and
my WHYs
Career goals:
Deployments to
Ukraine and Angola,
international
conferences…
Personal: Travel with
friends, discovering
new places, time for
exercise and being
outdoors…
35. 35
So to sum up, before you even think about making more time, becoming
more productive, or all the things you want to achieve, you need to know
specifically what the reasons are behind those desires, because this is the
foundation of everything you are going to do later!
Do you see how this is going to underpin and empower your time
management actions and decisions?

Some tips for selecting your timeslot
Use your commute
The average commuting time for Americans is 25
minutes
That’s nearly an hour each day!

Never hit “snooze”
Don’t start your day in procrastination mode.

Use your evenings
Be honest, how productive are you really in the evening?
If you met up with friends, would your night have been just
as good had you left an hour earlier?
If you have time in the evening but no energy, try going to
bed earlier and using the morning timeslot.

Kris scheduled her morning ritual to curb anxiety
●While working with me, Kris made time
for a morning hike and meditation.
Despite working two jobs, doing a
Master’s of Public Health in a new
country, relationship stress and chronic
anxiety, she prioritized this hour for
herself at the beginning of the day. By
taking the time out, she set herself up to
handle everything else that came her
way during a difficult life period.
●She aced her exams, succeeded in
acquiring funding for the NGO she leads
and made an international move to start
a new life and career phase.

Consultant at the World Health Organization

●Do you see how scheduling timeslots for your goals makes them
concrete and actionable?
●And how challenging the comfort of your current routine and using
a bit of creativity can open up new timeslots?
●Do you see how this is going to transform your calendar into your
OWN blank canvas to map out a life that’s in line with YOUR goals?
Shift 2: MAP YOUR TIME
49. 49
Focus is becoming a lost
skill in our society.
How much time are you
really spending on “deep
work” in the “flow state,”
aka “the zone”?
Shift 3: LEARN TO FOCUS
50. 50
SHIFT 3: LEARN TO FOCUS
“One of the most valuable skills in our economy is
becoming increasingly rare. If you master this skill,
you’ll achieve extraordinary results.”
- Cal Newport
51. 51
The Flow State
Or “hyperfocus”
-Has been recognized for 1000s of years
●Experienced as:
●Intense and focused concentration on the present moment
●Merging of action and awareness
●A loss of reflective self-consciousness
●A sense of personal control or agency over the situation or activity
●A distortion of temporal experience, one's subjective experience of time is altered
●Experience of the activity as intrinsically rewarding, also referred to as autotelic experience -Jeanne
Nakamura and Csíkszentmihályi
52. 52
Deep Work
Getting into a state of flow will
allow you to do deep work
Benefits:
• Create more value
• Avoid becoming replaceable
• Complete projects faster
• ENJOY working!
53. 53
Ask Yourself
What if I focused on the work that matters? What
would those deliverables be?
What if I eliminated, automated or delegated the
busy work?
54. 54
Shift 3: LEARN TO FOCUS
Realize:
How much the quality of your work will improve and how
much more value you will bring to your projects, dreams
and to the world!
55. 55
Quick Recap
We know we have to:
1. Understand exactly what we want the time for and why we
want it
2. Map the timeslots onto our calendars using creative
approaches and make that time non-negotiable
3. Work with full focus, prioritizing value-added work that
contributes to our goals
57. “Rule your mind, or it will rule
you.”
-Horace, Roman poet
Shift 4: ELIMINATE DISTRACTIONS
58. Our brains love distraction!
Every time you get distracted it takes about 25 minutes to get focused again
(University of California Irvine study) That’s a huge waste of time!
Distractions signal that something has changed. A distraction is an alert that
says, 'Orient your attention here now; this could be dangerous.’”-David Rock,
co-founder of the NeuroLeadership Institute
Imagine the effect of living in danger on your stress levels.
Distractions may also lower our IQ (Rock).
Shift 4: ELIMINATE DISTRACTIONS
60. •
Create gadget-free zones
•
Use noise-cancelling headphones.
Stop keeping social media tabs open and turn notifications off
•
Use your phone’s airplane mode
Change your location
Create a peaceful, clutter-free workspace
Don’t use distractions as rewards
Shift 4: ELIMINATE DISTRACTIONS
61. Maya eliminated distractions and landed a new job!
Maya had tried lots of productivity strategies in the past,
but still found herself distracted and out of balance. After
our work together, she closed the gap between what she’d
already tried and where she wanted to go.
She learned to avoid “shiny object syndrome” and cut out
procrastination. In a focused and empowered state, she
contacted recruiters and her contacts directly, landing two
interviews and two job offers the next day!
Now she’s starting her new dream job!

62. What’s the biggest distraction you could eliminate in your
life right now?
64. 64
Manage your email
You need a clear and decisive system for email.
Otherwise, email will:
● stress you out;
● disorient you; and
● kill your ability to control of your time.
65. 65
Manage your email
Cut the addiction to email app notifications and
social media distractions.
Stop relying on email as your to-do list.
66. 66
Manage your email
Instead:
Assign a time of day (or multiple times of day if you’re really nervous about it)
to check email.
Do not check email first thing in the morning.
Seriously. Don’t.
Go ahead and turn off your email notifications right now.
68. 68
Why we turn off email notifications
• Eliminate a ton of
background stress
that you don’t need in
your life
• Eliminate a false
sense of productivity
69. 69
Decide:
● How many times per day do you really need to check email?
● When will you check it?
Have you turned off your email
notifications?
Manage your email
70. 70
It will be easy to find focus and time for your goals once you
eliminate the distractions and busywork.
You’ll be unstoppable!

72. Shift 5: DO NOT TRY THIS ALONE
The only way that high performance
athletes, coaches, politicians, and million
dollar business owners have reached their
level of success is by investing in mentors.
But they did NOT invest in mentors when
they were already making their millions and
earning their Olympic gold, they invested
when they were living in their parent's
garage and training at the local community
gym.
I invest in mentoring consistently.
73. Sara invested in mentoring and made an international
career move
Sara invested in mentoring and got the
motivation and the push she needed to not only
accelerate her career but also her personal
growth.
Since working with me, she made an
international move totally on her own. She
landed herself a job as a TV journalist, found a
new apartment and already has a new group of
friends.
All within one week of moving from London to
Hong Kong!
Sara
TV journalist with Bloomberg and Reuters
74. Why you need a mentor:
Mentoring brings:
• new ideas
• confidence & accountability
• the exact strategy to reach your goals
in the shortest amount of time
Mentoring keeps you out of overwhelm,
doubt, and fear
Mentoring is FUN! You have an ally in
reaching your goals
75. Why you need a mentor:
• Clarity for forward action
• Avoid wasting your time figuring it
out and get where you want faster
• Enhanced decision-making skills
• Tailored advice to your life
• Accountability
• Perspective
77. Let go of your ego
You do NOT have to do it all on your own. Get the support you need
to succeed now, not 12 months, 5 or 10 years from now.
Failure to get the support you need can lead to not meeting the
expectations you have for yourself, or struggling so much you
eventually give up on your goals.
I see this happen all the time and it makes me so sad because I
KNOW it doesn’t have to be that way. I don’t want you to be one of
them.

Have you been waiting to feel “Ready”?
Imagine waking up every day feeling
excited to take action on your goals
and live the life of your dreams…
80. 80
Have you been waiting to feel “Ready”?
I started with reaching goals ad
hoc. Taking some years to end
up where I wanted to be. Now
I’m achieving huge
achievements on a monthly
basis with job offers falling from
the sky, my dream travels being
fulfilled and lifestyle dreams.
81. 81
What’s your big vision for your life?
What would you create if you had
more time and freedom?
What would your career look like?
What’s important to you?
How would your social and/or
family life look?
How would you feel? What drives
you to keep going?
Travel… More time with friends/family… Freedom of time...
82. 82
Now you have 3 choices
1. Procrastinate and do nothing. Leave your dreams where they are and your
life the way it is.
2. Crawl towards your goals alone, browsing the web for productivity tips and
tricks, all while struggling to beat the daily grind and wasting valuable time
you could be dedicating towards building your business, dream career,
memories or lifestyle.
3. You can allow me to help you strategize your productivity and how you
spend your time, enjoy the process and follow a model that’s proven to work
and take advantage of the compound effect by starting to implement the
system now, not 10 years from now.
83. 83
