Based on his resume, you'd think that it's all been rainbows and unicorns for Noah. But you're wrong.   But like me, Noah has experienced bouts of depression in his life.    We're not just talking about having a bad day, or even a tough week. We are talking about consistently thinking about bad things for years. We talked about our own techniques for dealing with depression. He's also got some great techniques to help improve your mental productivity.   Influencer Economy Quick Hits: How to use mental productivity to increase your energy How to find an accountability buddy who is always in a good mood to help-out How finding a mind coach helps you change your negative perceptions How to manager your office team when you're in a crappy mood How not to bring in your bad mood to work.
