Hard work doesn't have to be so hard.
TRAINING FOR INDIVIDUALS
I'm Paul Shirley, the founder of The Process. I work with people who want to regain the ability to do deep, focused work on big projects. This means:
​​
-
Establishing your Why.
-
Rebuilding the rituals that lead to undistracted work.
-
Coming up with strategies for breaking huge tasks into manageable bits.
​
Here's the reality: for about 12,000 years, we worked mainly with our backs. Now, many of us spend most of our days working with our brains.
This is new, often confusing, and surprisingly difficult. It's also something I've spent my life doing, first as a professional basketball player, then as a writer, and now as the proprietor of a business devoted to helping people do focused work.
If you choose to work with me, we'll together help you build new habits, develop new patterns of thinking, and master the art of focused work. You'll leave your time with me with strategies for structured, long-term success.​
Most of all: you'll be granted a feeling of relief when you're reminded that you can do focused work.
