How can organizing your sock drawer increase your productivity? Welcome to 'Socks and Inbox', the first in a three-part series on productivity that is so damn good (and well named) it could almost have been its own podcast!    Host Joey Vaillancourt is coming in hot today, with original ideas on how to foster original, creative thought for you and your business.    He's asking us to challenge our basic assumptions for maximum return, and on top of that, he's encouraging us to develop a 'thinking time' process to keep us consistent with our new thinking strategies and thinking patterns.   And it all starts with those pesky missing socks that lead to the dilemma of what to do with our mismatched pairs!    Learn how to free yourself up from early morning clothing decisions to more robust email and time management as well as creative, original thinking in an episode of PartnerUp Profits that is guaranteed to give your productivity the boost it needs as you kickstart your year in style… barefoot or with matching socks,  you decide!   "Living through other people's lenses, and validating your own ideas through those lenses, is the death of original thinking." ~ Joey Vaillancourt Resources: The Keith Cunningham book Joey recommends - https://a.co/d/abmziAo   In this episode we cover:   03:00 How can we challenge our basic assumptions? 05:00 Inbox Zero!
