Over the 16 years I've been a full-time soulpreneur, I’be accomplished a lot mainly because I’ve practiced creating, even when I don't feel like it… 

I work on a regular rhythm. And… I don't “feel like it” most of the time at the start of each work session.

But I show up anyway and practice infusing joyful productivity into the process. And therefore, get things done that might otherwise be delayed indefinitely.

Over time, I realized something important about this:

If the practice of loving-…

Because of how much we care (and dream), we soulpreneurs can sometimes (or often!) be overwhelmed by what seems like a never-ending to-do list. We are abundant with ideas, and a strong desire to serve. This can lead to a list of tasks that feels like a source of pressure, rather than what it’s meant to be… a tool for progress.

I’ve noticed 3 levels that I can approach any workday… and in fact, any work hour.

Level 1: Delayed Gratification

At this first level, what drives a worker is external motivation, a focus on completing a task. Perhaps even attachment to completing it. The work process is simply a means to an end.

• Core Mindset: “I have to get this over with.” The task i…

What is “deep work”?

Cal Newport’s book basically defines it as: deliberately focusing on important and purposeful tasks, so that you can maximize learning, creativity, and productivity. That’s a wonderful aim to have.

But if you’re anything like me, you want to do work not only for the results, but for personal growth and transformation too.

So let’s explore “deep” work… more deeply :)

Redefining Work and Productivity

Work has typically been defined as a means to an end — you work to g…
