The end goal of "productivity" is to spend less time doing the things you have to do so you have more time for the things you want to do.

(From the article): Again, these productivity myths only scratch the surface of the ones we see and read posted by productivity blogs around the web every day. We're even guilty of some of them. Regardless, all it takes to debunk many of these is a little digging into the research behind each of these assertions, and looking at the actual conclusions of the studies instead of what others concluded based on the study. Like many things, productivity isn't a one-size-fits-all approach. It's highly individual, and every bit of advice you read—including ours—should be considered as such. Delete the scoop?

Neuroscientist and artist Beau Lotto explores the challenge we have with perceiving new information in a fresh way. Lotto does a great job of explaining how it is important to embrace uncertainty and in particular “play”, as a tool to see in new ways and to think differently. In a nutshell he advises that if we want to be creative and innovative then we have to do things that shake us out of old patterns of how we perceive the world.

There is no obvious additional information about this 36-minute video of a lecture by Cleese on Cretivity. It looks to be about 20 years old, judging by Cleese's appearance. He speaks quite eruditely, and humorously (what else?), about a topic that is clearly of great interest to him. His range of knowledge is quite extraordinary. Well worth a look. -JL

The role of leader is an important one. A leader has to be conscious of the impression he or she is making. First and foremost a leader has to be a positive role model of integrity. But there is a balance that has to be struck; people don’t want to be led by a leader who is performing in a role all the time. We want a leader to uphold ideals and values, but we also want a leader to be real. Delete the scoop?
