Robin Sharma argues that productivity comes from cutting out non-essentials and focusing on four things: family, outstanding work, health, and personal growth. He says shift from maximalist to minimalist, strip away trivial pursuits and social noise, and concentrate monomaniacally on what actually matters.

It's Robin Sharma. I just wanted to jam a little bit on how you can become a more productive person. And the real key is to shift from being a maximalist to a minimalist. So many of us fill our lives with too many activities, too many yeses, too many social engagements, too many worries, too many attractions and trivial pursuits. And really, what you want to do is ask yourself a fundamentally key question. How can I simplify my life and live to the point? I think that was emers who ask that question. But you want to live to the point, and you want to strip out all the complexity, and you want to get monomaniacally focused on the few things that count, like family, doing amazing work, taking care of your health, your personal growth. But today, just really focus on how can you be a minimalist and strip out anything that is absolutely not important.
