The AUDIO CAFÉ – A Productivity Playlist To Get Sh*t Done

We are gathered here today to celebrate one thing and one thing only: productivity.

It’s a scary word when it’s not flowing.

When you’re not productive, you feel guilty, when you feel guilty, you go get a snack, when you go get a snack, you start watching a funny youtube video while eating said snack, when you start watching a funny video you fall into a rabbit-hole of other random (sometimes not-so-funny) videos, when you fall into a rabbit-hole of other random videos you realize you’ve just spent the last 45 minutes completely unfocused and procrastination might as well just be your middle name.

And there it is… the other scary “P” word: procrastination.

These 2 “P” words linger around us every day, especially if you’re a work-from-home-lady-boss-ceo-creative-solopreneur-go-getter-girl like many of us are nowadays. They battle it out all day long to see which one will reign superior. And somewhere along the way, your brain becomes mush trying to balance everything you have to do in time, and everything you’ve just wasted time doing.

So, today I want to share a list of songs & playlists that really help me get into a productivity flow that just feels soooooo right. (hopefully this does the same for you!)

I’m calling this list the AUDIO CAFÉ because every song really does feel like a strong cup of coffee that just makes you put your head down, get in the zone, focus on whatever task you’re tackling, and basically… get sh*t done!

Most of the music in these playlists live somewhere in the lofi/hip hop/jazz/jazz hop/bossa genres. I find that these songs make great semi-background music. They tend to have the perfect level of chill (not aggravating or assertive) but are still exciting enough to not put you straight to sleep. lol
