How to become your most productive self with Timo Kiander
Timo Kiander lives in Finland. Timo got his start in IT, where he worked for 15 years and faced the struggles of the cubicle life. Timo’s life changed after he began running and worked up to running a marathon. This lit the fire under his desire to take his physical performance to a new level. About the same time, he read “Getting Things Done” by David Allen and the focus on productivity was interesting to him. So, he began a blog to focus on productivity and he has grown it into his own brand. He eventually was the beneficiary of a layoff from his regular job, which allowed him to fully focus on his passion.
