List Rehab at My Book Signing

January 18, 2015/in Books, Learning With a List, List Making, Tool for Success/by Paula Rizzo

On Thursday I had my first ever book signing for Listful Thinking in a brand-new indie bookstore here in NYC. Earlier in the week I was pretty nervous about the whole event. I couldn’t stop worrying about who might show up and what questions they might ask.

But when Thursday night came around I actually ended up having a lot of fun. Nearly 60 people showed up and at one point it was standing room only! It was so great to talk with everyone.

Some people even brought their lists for me to check!

I also got asked some great questions that I thought I would share with you: Read more

I’m excited to share the first of what will hopefully be many interviews about my upcoming book, Listful Thinking. I’m always grateful for an opportunity to talk about my love of lists with other people and help them become more productive. Recently I was invited on Blog Talk Radio’s Conversations Live to discuss what inspired me to start this blog and how to use lists at home specifically to get the most out of your day!

Here’s the interview! I hope you’ll take a listen:

Will you join my virtual flash mob? (There’s a freebie in it for you!)

Have you ever heard of a flash mob? It’s where a bunch of people get together in an unlikely place (like a mall or Times Square) and start doing a choreographed routine. Usually it’s to the surprise and sometimes horror of others around them. Sounds fun, huh? I’ve never actually been in one but I think it could be a fun bucket list item one day. In the meantime — I hope you’ll help me with this virtual flash mob of sorts I’m putting together to promote my book, Listful Thinking: Using Lists to be More Productive, Highly Successful and Less Stressed.

I’m testing out this new site called ThunderClap.it, which allows you to write a message and have people sign up to share it all at the same time. See — kind of like a flash mob. Read more

I’m excited to announce that in December I’ll be offering a productivity course called “Listful Thinking” on PopExpert.com. Pop Expert creates online video workshops to help you live a more fulfilling and connected life.

I had such a blast shooting this course in September with the Pop Expert team. We filmed in a fabulous loft in Brooklyn and spent a whole day talking lists and productivity. It didn’t feel like work at all! Read more

Some mornings when I wake up – I start running through all the things I need to do that day in my head. Even though I already have my to-do list written from the night before. Does this happen to you? But I’ll tell you what I don’t do – I don’t think of things that I need to STOP doing. And I would bet you don’t either. But maybe we should…

The New Year is coming up and you might already be thinking about your resolutions, which I think are a waste of time if they aren’t super targeted. Maybe you want to stop obsessively checking your emails, or drinking less soda. Why not start with some simple things so you’ll be in good shape when the New Year rolls around? Read more
