So today we're going to be diving into five skillshare classes that are helpful
for productivity I wanted to share ones that I found helpful that I include a full list of them
in the link in description so if you're new here welcome my name is Francesco and welcome to keep
productive today we're very lucky to be sponsored by click up click up is a powerful way to manage
your projects and it's also fast and flexible and they've got a new version coming out very soon so
you can check it out in the link in description as well as our brand new channel keep productive with
click up if you fancy it so let's dive into some of these skillshare classes for productivity and
some of these are a little bit different because you wouldn't initially connect the dots with them
being directly productivity but they can help in all aspects of your life around your sort of
working life that I think could be pretty helpful the first one is interior design creating a plan
for your perfect room and I took this course little bit before actually getting an office in
the garden London obviously not everyone can have an office in the garden there you might be working
in your front room you might be working upstairs in a spare bedroom or you might be working at the
dining room table but one of the things that I found and probably should have taken this well
earlier is that this class was particularly good at helping you to plan what your workspace looks
like and what a good environment for an Airy more sort of relaxed goal based productivity
should look like and that means taking advantage of natural light coming in through the windows
and finding um cheaper but also good plants that can be more brightening for the room as well but
also using a mood board to take advantage of other people's ideas and how they've planned
their workspaces so this class is run by Arlene Hernandez who is already a writer in the space
and it's a really well structured course next up is one on self-reflection I took this class A few
months ago and I found it pretty good not only for um the career side of stuff but also sort of a bit
of self-discovery in an alternative career path it's a brand fantastic course that covers about
her journey Stephanie you want to get that wrong about how she took the sort of different path in
where she is but also what she traditionally does and what was nice is she talks about how
she reflected on that Journey during that period of time and some of the challenges that she faced
during the alternative career path so this one's a really helpful one if you're someone that is in
the middle of a career change or developing that and they're looking to look inwards on
themselves about how they're going with it or even potentially thinking about doing it in the future
next up is probably one that many have started to embrace a bit more and it's about remote work and
this is run by Kevin siskar and it's all about remote teams and how to really take advantage of
not just bringing your team together when they're both hybrid and remote but also utilizing Tools
workspaces around you and really just embracing remote work whilst at home this one's a fantastic
one and I'd recommend checking it out because it's it really covers everything you need to
know especially if you're fairly new to the whole remote world next up is one that I took
a while ago maybe three or four years ago on personal branding it's run by cat errands who
runs wit and delight and her branding and the way she represents herself online is absolutely
fantastic so if you're somebody that's looking to formalize or collect declutter and reform the
way that they present themselves online in terms of a portfolio or what they believe to well what
they want to express in their values and things like that this is a really effective course for
that and I love the sort of worksheets that she does as well that helps you sort of take yourself
out your comfort zone and and bring together some ideas that you might be thinking about and finally
probably the most productivity one of these is one called time teaming by Mike vardy this is a
collaboration with todoist but it's an absolutely fantastic one if you're looking to structure your
days a little bit more effectively and if you're looking at a sort of calendar blocking more
recently Concepts I'd recommend checking this one out because what it does it takes that step a lot
further in terms of task batching and especially with remote people these days trying to embed task
reaction is something that is becoming a bit more openly accepted in the workspace because
we know that we need to be a bit more focused on our deep work periods of time instead of all the
time in meetings with remote teams so this one is particularly interesting for that if
you're looking for something to persuade your boss improving how you spend your time at home for sure
