Great Podcast!
Lots of great information. I love the 'in a perfect world, how would you start your day' question.
Informative and interesting
I really like this podcast, and even though I wouldn't call myself a "productivity" person per se, I still find this really interesting and have often gained really useful tools to help me in my life and work. I'm a stay at home mom and still find this a great listen.
Excellent podcast, very inspiring!
Thanks Erik for this amazing podcast. I'm always inspired by the people you bring on to the show. It's definitely helped me in my entrepreneurial journey!
Life Changing Ideas
Paul Jun's idea of creating a 'Common Places' folder in Evernote to capture all of your thoughts, quotes, etc in different subject areas that allow you to capture your self eduction's journey has changed my life. Thank You.
Always Finding Value
I have listened to this podcast for a few weeks now and always seem to come away from every episode with something useful. I keep a pen and pad next to me when I listen because I know I will want to check out something mentioned.
Podcast lives up to the name and goes beyond...
Erik is very good with his questions making each interview interesting and helpful. In fact he goes beyond just average everyday questions. Thanks!
TuNe In & Take Action!
If you like bacon, you’ll love Erik. Not only that, if you are looking for content that helps improve you’re busy life (especially entrepreneurs), then this is a must listen to podcast! Always great to hear the stories behind the success of the guests that he features and how they go about managing their businesses and personal lives. Keep up the great work Erik!
Inspiring!
Love this podcast! I listen to it nearly every day (while I am catching up on old episodes) and each one gives me new tips and tricks to find pockets of time in my day. More importantly, there is always a fantastic take-away message about the importance of balance and sanity in one's life. What a motivating and empowering podcast! Thank you!
Mental boost everytime I listen.
I listen to every podcast and always find something great I need to write down and follow through on in my own life. I listen to the podcast my way to work on Mondays, and it leaves me motivated and with something to focus on that week. I find so much valuable material, and presented in a very down to earth manner. And for the record, I love hearing the "morning question" answers. Thanks for all the great content.
Fresh look at how real people live and work
Productivity tips never really do it for me. Erik's fresh approach to this subject is super useful to me though. You get to dive into how real people work in their real lives. Seeing the challenges and how people solve them to get things done is what makes it useful to me. My favorite episodes are the ones with Chris LoCurto - amazing! Start there.
I’m a fan
This is a great inspiration for anyone that struggles to to the ToDo’s off their list and to get onto what is meaningful. Erik does a great job of not making this all about cool apps and tools. I’m a fan!
Helping a cluttered mind unclutter
Thanks, love this podcast and the big picture behind productivity, makes me move
I never miss an episode.
I love podcasting and listening to others podcasts. However, there are only a handful that I listen to every episode. Beyond the To Do List is one of my favs and Erik Fisher is such a humble, approachable host.
Down to earth and well-rounded view of productivity
Beyond the To Do List is the most human productivity podcast I've listened to. Erik doesn't just explore getting the work done, he focuses on overall self improvement in a truly holistic manner. He's a great interviewer, going with the natural rhythm of the conversation rather than imposing a rigid structure on every episode. He talks a lot about family life, but the only request I would make is to hear more stories from people with very small children (i.e. 0-4 years old). I'd love to hear someone's 'ideal day' story start with changing a diaper, because that is something that is definitely part of my life and the lives of a lot of other aspiring parent-entrepreneurs.
Love the Show!
Erik always brings it with quality content and genuine entertainment. I learn something new every podcast.
Great Interviews with Superb Questions
If you’re chasing a dream that seems to keep fleeing just beyond your grasp, carve out 30 minutes a week to hear Erik Fisher talk to those who’ve achieved their goals. You’ll learn much about productivity, and you’ll be inspired by his guests’ stories. Fisher asks smart, to-the-point questions that don’t rehash what you may have previously heard from his interview subjects. Beyond the To-Do List is well worth your time.
I had to listen twice
Loved Erik's interview with Donald Miller so much I had to listen to the episode twice. Beyond the To Do List is constantly top notch. It's a great way to start a morning to feel motivated.
Beyond Useful.
Erik does a great job of providing content that is useful and entertaining. He has relevant guests who are interesting and not just trying to sell their products. I am more productive after applying info learned here.
Beyond the Pastor’s To Do List
In Beyond the To Do List, host Erik Fisher thinks about productivity in holistic and creative ways. If you have a good work ethic, then you want to get things done. However, if you work in a field that requires creativity or intellectual labor (as opposed to physical labor), then this can be a challenge. Having grown up around so many people who labor physically, I often feel guilty that my labor is so intangible and intellectual (I’m a pastor). So, I often compensate for this guilt by overworking in an attempt to counteract the "lazy preacher" stereotype that lives on in rural areas. However, Beyond the To Do List helped me to think more clearly about what it is that I do and how I can organize to get things done efficiently. Fisher interviews professionals from various fields to talk about everything from handling email to setting goals to health. In fact, it is the variety of Fisher's guests and topics that make his podcast stand out from others in the productivity field. Beyond the To Do List is an entertaining way to sharpen your skills as a leader and as a creative. It encourages me to work hard, live life, and go for the next level--to know what my work is and to do it.
Awesome podcast
Thanks for the nice work..
Love it!
Great podcast, Helpful information and great interviews.
A podcast I plan to listen to time & time again
I listened to the episode about story telling. Very useful. I'll never watch a movie again without thinking of the short breakdown. "You have a character who meets a guide etc". Thanks for the great content.
Podcast for anyone and everyone!
This podcast is packed full of great ideas for everyone! I'm "just" a stay at home mom and I feel included and encouraged through each one of Erik's episodes! I look forward to each new episode! Go ahead and give it a listen! I dare you!
Lots of great tips, easily digested..like bacon
I help vacation rental owners market and manage their properties - on average an owner will spend 8.9 hours per week doing this, so they are generally in need of help to manage their personal productivity too. This podcast is my go-to resource to find new ideas to help them out, and I recommend they listed too
