    Episode 4 - Robert Plotkin: Busyness is the Devil’s Playground

    “An idle mind is the devil’s playground.” This is not the case in business. When working on a business or building a brand, it’s easy to fall into a state of constant distractions, busyness, and endless sources calling for your attention. While having so many things demand for your time is generally a good sign that your business is going well, it can also lead to burnout, lack of productivity, and can kill creativity. In this episode, I talk with Robert Plotkin, the founder of Technology for Mindfulness. He lives and breathes the high-tech world, but always leaves space for his mindfulness practices. In our discussion, Robert challenges the value of being busy and instead places that value in idleness. He shares insights into how to use mindfulness practices with technology, create personal systems to reestablish timely expectations, and ultimately provide space for creativity and productivity. So get ready to learn practical tips on how to create a mindful workspace and increase your productivity.   Some Questions I Ask: How did you get to where you are today?
