Ask Me Anything with Dr. Amantha Imber: Procrastination hacks, my AI workflows, and task management hacks (Part 1)

How I Work

**Record a question for Amantha’s next Ask Me Anything here: https://www.speakpipe.com/howiwork **

What do you do when procrastination takes over? How can AI actually change your workflows? And what are the best systems to manage tasks?

In this AMA episode, I answer listener questions on procrastination, the Right to Disconnect laws, process bottlenecks, and how I use AI tools in my everyday work. These are the challenges so many of us wrestle with - and I share my practical strategies, missteps, and experiments.

In this episode, I share:

• How I break down overwhelming tasks (including writing my fifth book) and strategies I use to beat procrastination.

• Why the Right to Disconnect laws may not fit modern, flexible workplaces - and what managers need to rethink.

• Where to start when fixing a bottleneck in your processes, and how AI can help.

• My system for keeping notes, tasks, and reminders organised.

• The GPTs, prompt libraries, and tools I rely on daily - from proposal writing to creating Instagram reels.

Amantha recommends:

• Notion: My digital command centre for projects, tasks, and notes

• Granola: My go-to meeting notes app that combines live transcripts with my human notes to capture every detail

• Tella: A simple tool I use for recording and sharing video proposals to add a personal touch

• Zapier & n8n: Automation powerhouses that streamline repetitive tasks and free up hours every week

• Jeff Su: A productivity YouTuber whose Notion course transformed how I set up and run my system
