New week, new episode of North America’s favourite podcast about shame, doubt, and regret. ;)
This is as close as you’ll get to New Year’s resolutions from us: Eric talks about how he came to write a self-critical personal manifesto for 2012, and Sean offers his theory of a “threshold of distasteful actions” as one of the roots of procrastination.
Next week, we dig into Eric’s manifesto.
We mention:
- Sean’s New Year’s Eve exercise for recognizing your accomplishments
- Episode 42, with Jon Crowley
- Episode 38: Valuing What You Do
- the Inbox Zero method
#38: Valuing What You Do

A brand new episode of Attention Surplus, with the triumphant return of “Junk Sean.” And, announcing our first contest. You could win signed photo printed from me, Sean, and our mystery guest.
It’s easy to judge ourselves by what we haven’t finished or aren’t getting done. What if we were to look instead at all the things we have accomplished?
Plus: how and when to say no, and the return of Junk Sean.
Announcing our first contest! Leave a comment and guess the name of our special guest (who will join us for next week’s episode) and win not one but three signed photo prints – one each from Sean, Eric and our mystery guest!

Pretty good episode of Attention Surplus this week, if I do say so myself.
Designer, artist, musician, public speaker and Ottawa Creative Collective co-founder Steve St. Pierre joins Eric via Skype to talk about seat-of-the-pants creativity and making things happen.
