On Productivity is the collective wisdom of thought leader, Ari Meisel. Arguably the most efficient man alive, Ari has been obsessed with productivity for decades. On Productivity is the culmination of his pursuit for focus, freedom, and flexibility--the goal of any entrepreneur, business owner, or C-Suite executive looking to scale. Until now, Ari's proprietary methodologies on optimal efficiency have only been delivered through online courses, large venue speaking engagements, and an elite, private coaching program. He's taught legendary entrepreneurs, founders, US Military leadership, and celebrities how to harness technology while preserving one’s humanity. Now his secrets are revealed for the first time in On Productivity - the essential guide to working on your business, not in it.
Ari Meisel is a self described, “Overwhelmologist” who helps entrepreneurs who have opportunity in excess of what their infrastructure can handle, to optimize, automate, and outsource everything in their business, so they can make themselves replaceable and scale their business.
Ari is the Founder of Less Doing, author of the best-selling book, “The Art of Less Doing”, and its sequel, the forthcoming “The Replaceable Founder”, coming this September.
He is a graduate of the Wharton School of Business, an Ironman, and a devoted husband to Anna and father to four children, Ben, 6, Sebastien and Lucas, 4 and Chloe, 2.
When Ari Meisel was diagnosed with a severe case of the incurable digestive ailment known as Crohn’s disease, he quickly found himself in the hospital and soon thereafter on a host of medications. After hitting a truly low point, he decided it was time to take matters into his own hands. Putting himself on a strict regiment of yoga, healthy eating, nutritional supplements and intense exercise, Meisel not only beat back the symptoms, he was in fact eventually declared cured of his "incurable" disease.
One of the outcomes of this log and difficult journey was the deep realization that he wanted to live his precious gift of healthy life much more fully. He quickly saw how much of his time was wasted by tasks that could just as easily be done by others. Thus was born his blog, the art of Less Doing, so that we all might have more living.
Ari's original book Less Doing, More Living: Make Everything in Life Easier was the book that planted some seeds in my head on how to live easier and inspired me on how to improve. That book was very specific for its year and included tools which may be out of date now. This book "On Productivity" is his latest work which encapsulates so much excellent knowledge. Definitely recommend.
