I first met today’s guest at a conference I was keynoting back in 2016.

She was one of those rare folks who immediately put me at ease with her friendly demeanor and positive attitude.

Her name is Mridu Parikh and now, three years later, she has written a brand new book called Accomplish It: 7 Simple Actions to Get the Right Things Done and Achieve Your Goals.

I read this one from cover to cover, and though a few of the actions she recommends were things I was already doing, I learned plenty of new tactics and strategies I plan to implement to take my productivity to a new level.

I believe that no matter where you are on the productivity “scale,” you’ll find something of value in Mridu’s book.

In today’s episode, I ask Mridu to share:

• Her belief that attempts at multitasking actually makes you stupid
• Strategies for combating distractions
• The questions to ask yourself before you say “yes” to that next commitment
• …and plenty more!
