All work and no play makes you pretty dull. So, why not spend the end of your day decompressing with some prayer, a glass of wine, and a mindless flash game? Upgrade Complete! is a complete satire on games that over-emphasize upgrading your character stats. The problem is, even though it is a satire it is very addictive.

Out of all of the saints in the Church, Thomas More is probably the most notable and relate-able saint when it comes to lay people who work. He was a lawyer, philosopher, husband, and father of such astounding character and habit that many are confounded as to how he managed to juggle everything. During his life he was married twice, spent years in a monastery, and reached the highest level of office in England other than the king himself. So how did Sir Thomas More find the time to do and be all of these things?

It amazes me how an institution like the Catholic Church, which dominated art in the west for over 1500 years, seems to be content with websites that look as though they were created for a third grade science project. I apologize for any hurt feelings, but it’s the truth. That being the case, I have taken the liberty of giving some ideas on how to remedy the situation in the most cost-effective way possible. Get ready for the tools to help your parish have an extreme website makeover.

I originally planned on sharing a boat load of Linux applications that were designed to make you more productive. However, there are so many, and they are all tailored to specific purposes that I thought it better to spread them out into multiple posts. I have used every application in this post – and in subsequent posts – in one way or another. Hopefully you will use them too. If you don’t use Linux, find an old computer and hop on the bandwagon. It’s free, so there really isn’t an excuse not to.

Although it lacks features that die-hard GTDers typically use, the new Google Task app turns Google Calendar and Gmail into a high powered way of keeping track of the things you need to do. The power of this new app lies in the method in which you use it, and not necessarily in its features. This article is a little walkthrough in the way I’ve used it to increase productivity at home and in the workplace.

As I was making my rounds through my favorite entrepreneur and productivity blogs today, I found an article at Lifehack.org that really made me consider the definition of what productivity is. Rather, I should say that it encouraged me to define what productivity is not so that could better determine what exactly is meant by being productive. I couldn’t help but feel that the premise of the article was wrong.

With the hurting economy in the U.S., it has become more important to find ways to earn extra income or to cut expenses. Fortunately, it is precisely because of the economy that there are far more opportunities for you to use your talent as a service to others, while allowing you to make it through this tough time.

There are millions of people in the world that have extraordinary talent. Millions of those extraordinarily talented people are complete failures. Why are they not able to accomplish the extraordinary? It’s simple, they don’t use their talents! The hardest part about achieving anything worthwhile is actually doing it. You don’t have to be a genius [...]

I have never been an early riser. Even in the military I was never able to get in the habit of waking up at a reasonable time. Unfortunately, now that I am a father and husband I realize that the earlier I wake up, the easier it is for me to get things done that would otherwise jeopardize family time. That being said, I have had to devise tools of forcing myself to wake up a couple hours earlier than I normally would. Some are obvious, and some are creative, but hopefully all of them work to help wake you up!
