Religion. Politics. The best brand of peanut butter. But if there\u2019s one area where we can find some common ground, it\u2019s productivity. Getting stuff done. We all - to a certain degree - have to cross items off our to-do list. Whether you\u2019re a stay-at-home parent, Fortune 500 CEO, pastor, or entrepreneur, you have to take action on the goals that matter to you. That\u2019s why I\u2019m talking to author\/speaker Jon Acuff. He\u2019s written a book called Procrastination Proof that simultaneously makes me feel seen and convicted at the same time. You see, I\u2019m a serial procrastinator. When I don\u2019t know what to do next, I assume doing nothing will solve it. Problem is, it never does. If you\u2019ve ever heard Jon speak or read any of his books, it\u2019s a fun ride. He\u2019s hilarious and practical. In this conversation we talk about procrastination and how to beat it. We talk about Jon\u2019s journey as a PK and his perspective on leading a church. We talk about how to deal with criticism, small churches and mega churches, and even some worship leader jokes at no additional church. Topics Covered: Worship Leader jokes How to deal with criticism Why successful leaders develop bad habits One thing every pastor needs The four frameworks for becoming procrastination proof The validity of small churches and mega churches Resources Mentioned: Show Sponsor: Planning Center Procrastination Proof by Jon Acuff Jon Acuff website Show Sponsor: This episode is brought to you by Planning Center, helping you sync all your ministry details across your whole church. Planning Center has become so essential to how I manage a team, that it\u2019s almost impossible to consider local church ministry without it anymore. Today, I want to leave you with a PCO pro-tip. Does this sound like a familiar situation? It\u2019s the end of the week. You\u2019re about to leave the office when you suddenly think: Did all of our volunteers confirm for Sunday? You scroll through the schedule and sure enough\u2014there\u2019s a gap. Instead of allowing yourself to spiral into a  panic, try this: In Services, Planning Center has gap alerts. Turn them on, and you\u2019ll get a heads-up days before service if positions are still unfilled or unconfirmed. No more end of the week scrambling. Speaking of less scrambling, did you know you can access everything you need for rehearsals right from the Service media player on your phone? Lyrics, chord charts, arrangement notes\u2014it\u2019s all right there, so you\u2019re not hunting for files in the middle of hitting those power chords.
