Productivity is one of the skills that are essential to everyone’s life, irrespective of their career goals, skills, or interests. There have been hundreds of books and thousands of hours with productivity tips and shortcuts. And yet, even during the COVID lockdown, when many people find themselves with more free time than they were used to, productivity is still a struggle for many of us.

Is it more difficult to be productive in our modern era, with the countless destructions and the shorter attention spans? Are some people more gifted with a talent in productivity? Or is it that all that is needed is a to pull ourselves together and get the work done? Psychologist Josh Dickson will shed some light on the psychological mechanisms behind productivity (and the lack of it).


The Ayn Rand Centre UK Podcast offers a space for deep, challenging conversation. Hosted by the Ayn Rand Centre UK, each episode brings together thinkers and scholars from diverse fields-philosophy, psychology, the sciences, and the arts-to engage in substantive panel discussions and debates. These conversations move beyond superficial headlines to examine the underlying ideas shaping our culture, politics, and personal lives. You’ll hear arguments dissected, concepts clarified, and contemporary issues explored through the lens of reason, individualism, and objective reality. This isn’t about echo chambers; it’s a forum for rigorous intellectual exchange, where guests defend their viewpoints and engage with challenging questions. The podcast serves as an ongoing exploration of how philosophy applies to the real world, from education and social trends to scientific progress and self-improvement. It’s for anyone who believes that ideas matter and who wants to listen to thoughtful, principled discourse in an often unprincipled age. Tune in for a consistently stimulating audit of the ideas driving society forward or holding it back.
