New tools & the new Dojo

Transcript
so happening yeah thanks for coming to
watch this video today's video is
actually about new tools what I mean
about new tools so it's the new year
everyone's making resolutions whether
it's personally or professionally we
want to make our life easier we want to
go to the gym we want to eat better we
want to do a better routine and
professionally for your work we want to
try to make more money and find more
time and so on and find new tools I hear
about this all the time I need a new
tool to help me do this here's the thing
sorry this is this is a bit of a downer
there is no such tool no tool is going
to be able to help you do the things you
think it's gonna do the tool doesn't
matter and is the kicker the system
matters make sure your system works and
then find a tool that's going to be able
to help you progress over the year over
the coming year so my system hasn't
changed my tools change all the time
which is kind of wrong I talk about this
all the time don't keep changing your
thoughts if it doesn't work for you
change it but don't keep thinking oh
that's got a new a new feature that I
want oh that's got a fantastic feature
don't keep chopping and changing it's
just not gonna work your system should
definitely never change you can revise
your system and kind of add things to it
but to completely change your systems
not a good thing so new tools are great
if you need to make sure your system
works better new tools are crap
basically if you don't have a system in
place because you're not going to be I
hate the word product productive you're
not going to be too productive if you've
got no system and a crap tool you're
saying going to work you're not going to
be productive if you have no system and
a fantastic tool you won't know how to
use it you're not going to be productive
if you
got a fantastic system but a crappy tool
so they they you you have to marry the
two with that I do have a new tool well
not a new tool I touched on this
yesterday I have a new dojo this coming
year I will be focusing on doing my
raising awareness of c4 tech minimalism
but doing more coaching obviously
helping people with their max which is
what I've been doing for many many years
but I'm also going to be educating and
I'm working on a course so if you want
to be notified when I do this course
join the dojo the dojo is the thing so
it's the Mac junkie dojo if you go to
make junkie.com for slash dojo or just
go to make junkie.com and there's a dojo
button and it takes you to another space
mic junkie space where I will be there's
actually a course there now with my Mac
tip so I've put my Mac tips as a course
there so go and sign up to that the dojo
itself is kind of I want to build a
community of people who are interested
in tech melanism and helping people you
know organize their Mac in their
workflows and stuff so what I plan to do

single day
