The conventional approach to productivity focuses on output and discipline—often at the expense of joy and fulfillment. We push through tasks, trying to be more efficient, only to find ourselves feeling disconnected from the work we’re doing. This mindset can turn each day into a grind, leaving us drained and unfulfilled.
In this episode, we explore how shifting our mindset towards gratitude and wonder can not only boost productivity but also make our daily tasks more meaningful. I discuss how practices rooted in Zen can help us fully appreciate each moment, from mundane chores to major projects, bringing a sense of freshness and joy into all we do.
Join me to learn how cultivating gratitude, wonder, and joy can transform your approach to productivity, turning everyday moments into opportunities for connection and delight.
