QUOTES: 

Productive people are the ones who connect the most dots. 

Not many people change the world through social media. 

For exactly one year, beginning May 1st, 2013, Chris Bailey decided to follow his passion and devour everything he could get his hands on about productivity, and then write every day about what he learned on A Year of Productivity.
