Welcome to Making it Stick, and congratulations on undertaking the Smart Work productivity program. We hope you are excited about implementing the system, and can see the possibility of a more productive work life. This resource is designed to help you to implement and embed the skills and habits that will boost your productivity.

So, what are the first steps? What do you need to do in the first few days to ensure you get set up for productivity? How do you give yourself every chance to successfully create a new set of productivity behaviors?

In the video above, Dermot talks about the journey ahead, and what you need to do to maximise your chance of success in implementing the system.

As so much of your success is dependent on creating a new set of habits, you can also download How Habits Work, a Change This manifesto by Charles Duhigg. This is a fantastic insight into how to create new habits and is very relevant to your journey over the next few weeks.

Over the next month you will receive weekly emails with links to more videos, articles and great content, all designed to help you Make it Stick.

Your 3 actions for the next week:

1. Read the Introduction section of Smart Work

2. Ensure all recommended changes have been made to your email, calendar and task system

3. Centralise all of your actions into your new system
