Single-Handling and other Productivity lessons from “My Name is Earl”
Posted By: purevoid
Productivity and time-management lessons are not what you would expect from the unapologetic trailer-trash comedy show “My Name is Earl”. But those are what I exactly got. Or maybe it’s just me since I reviewed some of Brian Tracy’s self-development materials in the morning and watched the episode finale of the sitcom later that night on the same day.
Before anything I do recommend you to watch even a few episodes of “My Name is Earl” despite that I often advice friends to quit TV as the boob tube is among the top time-suckers of all time.
For many reason I love the show: I love the humor, the dumb characters, the hot women and really love references to old school themes. Besides, I often relate well to the ne’er-do-well characters of Jason Lee from the 90s cult classic Mall Rats, his love of comic books, slacking and the overall grunge, generationX which he and comedy represent.
As for productivity and time-management, Brian Tracy should be one of your references if you are a total newbie to self-productivity craze. I often go back to him as he articulates succinctly a lot of fundamentals and principles on the broad subject which on the other hand many of his younger predecessors have diluted and over analyzed. I won’t stretch the relation too much but you would clearly see how the “My Name is Earl” intersects with Brian Tracy’s works and other productivity concepts:
