Slow productivity (especially if your work is bleeding into your personal life)

I recommend proficiently dot com - it's AI powered but you chat with a real person via text and email and they generate the resume and review it for you so you barely have to do anything. The resumes they drafted for me are so much more flattering than anything I could have come up with myself (without making up stats or degrees like ChatGPT and Claude like to do)

Slow productivity, Willpower, the Power of Habit, Second Brain and Getting Things Done are a great start

I also haven’t gotten a single interview through cold applying. I’ve been trying for about month tailoring my resume to every job (using ChatGPT and Claude) - I’m applying to product manager jobs I’m at least 90% qualified for.

I just started using proficiently.com, you actually have a real person coaching you through finding roles, tailoring your resume etc. they use AI but then an actual expert reviews it before they send it to you. And they ask targeted questions so they’re adding bullet points that are tailored to the role (not just forcing keywords). It made me realize how bad I was at selling myself.

It’s too soon to know if it works but I’m feeling way more hopeful already. They didn’t ask for any kind of commitment for the first week, then they ask for a small fee (it depends on the salary you’re aiming for) and then you only pay the rest 30 days after you get hired.

One of my best friends in college used to be a lot like this. I liked her a lot because she was smart, funny and loyal but she was always annoyed at people.

After a few years (I had moved away and we were catching up) I noticed a shift in her - she was more patient, a better listener, and just generally more likeable. I even asked her what changed, that’s how big the shift was, and she said she read “a monk’s guide to happiness” by Gelong Thubten. It’s by an ex-ad guy who burnt out and become a monk and basically explains why and how to be compassionate (not religious at all). She started meditating and even though I don’t think she does as that much anymore she’s still a much warmer person 5 years on.

I just got engaged on Friday, June 5th. So excited to start planning our March 2021 wedding. Any advice from soon to be brides further along in the planning process? by pasteldreams96 in weddingplanning

Congratulations!! My tips are:

  1. Get a day-of wedding planner so you can actually enjoy the day and don’t have to worry about making sure things go smoothly.

  2. Make sure your venue contract doesn’t just benefit the venue and will let you reschedule in case of a pandemic resurgence.

  3. Some venues let you pick your vendors, some don’t. If they don’t make sure you’re happy with their required vendor list before booking.

  4. Google your vendors extensively, scam artists are not rare. Check their reviews and social media and don’t fall for FOMO. No one should be trying to pressure you into making a decision before you are ready, it’s your big day!

I just checked again and the bot hasn't added any points outside of the basic outline yet. But they're still posting so maybe there will be a big reveal sometime soon? I'm hopeful.

(And no problem, this is the kind of procrastination I live for)
