Today we’re going to continue with the productivity theme on the podcast, and if you missed the bonus episode from this past Monday with Neill Williams, you’re going to want to check that one out too! In this episode my good friend Craig Ballantyne is rejoining me (now as a guest for the third time!), to talk about his latest book called The Perfect Week Formula.

Craig is an expert in productivity for entrepreneurs, and he was one of my original mentors (and continues to be) since I started in the online space. His books and content have helped me so much over the years, and I know they can do the same for you too.

In this episode Craig reveals what it means to have a “perfect week”, what to really focus on to get more done, and the way you can leave a lasting legacy with the work that you do.

He shares his brilliant “Billionaire Time Matrix” concept, along with the four questions that can save you 10 hours a week – and who wouldn’t want to have that?

Craig talks about how top performers end their days to guarantee success, and he shares his “Blackout Game” that I had never heard of before. This is a challenge and system that as an entrepreneur, you’re going to want to see if you can implement it!

This was a wide-ranging conversation that covered a lot, and what I like about Craig is that he always gives strategies and tactics that you can use right way. This conversation is no exception, because the stuff Craig reveals in this episode can change your life very, very quickly!

Before we start the show, I’ve got something to ask. At this time we have over 500 5-Star ratings and reviews on Apple Podcasts, which is great, but I’ve set a goal to get 750 of them now by the end of this year, December 31st, 2019. If you’ve gotten value from this podcast, I’d really appreciate you subscribing and leaving an honest rating and review. Take a screenshot, share it on your Instagram Stories and tag me, @rickmulready. When we hit the 750 ratings and reviews, I’ll be raffling off a book bundle of my top 10 business and mindset books for one lucky winner. If you’ve already left a rating and review, just take a screenshot and tag me on Instagram, and you’ll be eligible to win as well!
