Dom Wells and His Productivity Tips for Location Independent Digital Nomads



hey what's up duck Huntington here from
niche site project and this is sort of
like the behind-the-scenes conversation
that DOM and I had now dumb Wells from
human proof designs was in another full
interview I'll put the link somewhere
around here so you can get to it if you
haven't seen that it'll be cool to watch
the whole thing
we kept recording because Dom thought of
an answer to one of the questions that I
asked them and he didn't know the answer
during the main interview so we started
rolling again started talking about that
then the conversation turned to
productivity and ask him some questions
about his ideal day and sort of how he
structures his work so super interesting
conversation and let's just go to the
conversation right now hey what's up
Doug Pennington from the asite project
and Dom and I were sitting here talking
we just finished our interview and I
realized I had a few more questions I
wanted to ask and Dom realized that he
thought of an answer to a question from
rapid-fire so if you didn't watch the
video earlier you need a rewind watch
the the full interview but the question
was what purchase of $100 or less like
has had a big impact on your life and
Dom thought about it he said I could do
500 so what what is a good item that you
purchased in the last year so so a
conference ticket to dynamite Circle
Bangkok which is not a plug for this
particular conference it's just that's
the one I went to I think the ticket was
499 dollars so that's what I said 500
the conference is Saturday and Sunday
but you can spend like I think $100
extra or $79 extra at the early bird
pricing to go to the mastermind the day
before so the Friday so I went for that
option and there's a lot of people that
were like yeah I don't go to the
mastermind because I you know I don't
have a problem with my business I don't
need a question answered and I was like
but you pay like $75 to spend six hours
talking about business like how could
you not get a positive ROI from that and
in my particular one I got a few ideas
for human group designs which has led me
to
probably $20,000 in revenue from
something like a product idea I got
which we haven't released yet but I
emailed a few people who might be
interested about and it generated us
probably add like $20,000 revenue and
that's from like $100 add on to a
conference so nice yeah that's pretty
good our way very cool yeah I do like it
for people that don't know the dynamite
circle is from the tropical NBA folks
fantastic podcast of that's one of the
few podcasts and I still listen to and I
I have not been to any of their
conferences I'm actually not in the DC
or anything but I think maybe I think
they do one in Austin - right uh-huh
yeah I think in April this year in
Austin really maybe I maybe need to make
that a priority because Austin is really
awesome it's a great city tons of
barbeque have you been there dawn by the
way I haven't I'm tempted to go to this
one as well but I'm gonna be in the
States in March so I'm not sure if I
want to stay or head back and then go
there again so yeah sure
you should stay Mia you should say I
can't I had a couple productivity
questions so I know a lot of people are
interested in this so how do you
organize your work and generally stay
productive are you pretty organized no
like the worst person to talk to about
productivity although maybe that's a
good thing yeah like I used to feel
guilty because I would be like I'm
terribly unorganized so therefore I'm
never gonna succeed so I guess I can I
can wave the flag for the disorganized
people and say that you can do it how do
I organize my day I mean pretty much I
have a pen and paper and I write a to-do
list on it and genuinely believe that
having it on a pen and paper works
better than having it digitally I don't
know why it's just like I'm maybe my it
just feels different I used to ask the
risk the things that were the most
important absolutely needed to get done
that day but generally now my team do
those things like today I had do a
podcast which I didn't do create the
piece of content which I do
and do that one other thing which I also
did and that's pretty much how I
organize my day oh yeah I don't have any
magic systems or anything by the way I
like pen and paper as well one thing I
discovered had do use Evernote at all or
I used to but so I used to use it a
little bit because everyone was talking
about it so what you can do now is you
can I'm looking at notebooks down below
so I have like legal pads and stuff and
notes actually the questions that I
thought of for you I wrote it on this
legal pad what you can do is take
pictures with your smartphone and then
the text is searchable it could read
your handwriting so it's searchable so I
have like notebooks all over the place
with notes and different information and
it's fantastic because I could take a
picture throw it away and now it's
searchable it's out of my head I don't
need to worry about it anymore so
something to look into if you do like
I'm sure other tools do it yeah like the
AI to read the handwriting is like
game-changing for me
because now I could search my notes that
I like took pretty cool that is pretty
cool because I often and know I've
written something somewhere I can't
remember what it is
and I can't remember where it is and I'm
going through my notepad thing like
where did I write this thing so if you
could just remember like one key word or
something and what's an ideal day look
like for you an ideal workday so
recently I've been waking up and doing
some stretches in the morning like kind
of not not quite yoga but I heard from a
bit of a bad lower back as probably a
lot of work at home people do so I've
just got like a kind of 30 minute
routine that stops my back hurting sort
of strengthening and everything and then
I listen to headspace as well which is
if you're not familiar with headspace
it's like a kind of guided meditation
air I've been doing that for about
probably 40 days now yeah I mean every
now and then I'll miss a day so it's not
fully those consecutively but it's
probably 40 days I've done 37 days in a
row or or you know total right then I'll
usually work
I try and just work up to lunch and then
work after lunch and a lot of the time
if I'm not working I'm still thinking
about work there's a lot of mental space
dedicated to it so it really depends
what what it is because when I first
started I was just writing articles I
was doing all this kind of like hustling
type work whereas now it's more
strategic because I have a team to do a
lot of my legwork but I'll still do the
podcast or I'll write some blog posts
but that's not consistent so every day
it could be different really good cool
any productivity tips for people as we
sign off here figure out what works for
you because what you know what a lot of
us fall for is thinking okay that guy
recommended Trello and he's a
millionaire so I'm going to use Trello
or I won't make any money and you know
maybe Trello is great for you maybe a
Sun is great for you maybe base camps
great for you maybe nothing's great for
you so I think try lots of different
things and learn as much as you can
about how you work at one thing I've had
success with recently is realizing when
I'm not in a working mood and just being
like okay I'm not gonna work instead of
trying to fight it for four hours and
still not working right so like the more
you learn about yourself I think the
more you can learn what works for you
and then just do that it's perfect mean
nothing to add I agree 100% well yeah
and productivity is your things
yeah and I'm I'm just as unorganized as
you but I just put up a strong tough
face here so all right everyone check
