You can eat your favorite hamburger in two ways – either with the ‘easy’ way or the ‘hard’ way. This actually symbolize how we do things – productive or non-productive way.

Meanwhile, I’m taking this opportunity to introduce the main characters of Mindshortcut comic strip. Introducing Jeezy, Jaden and Francis. Three of them opened an consulting company that provides various productivity related courses to various organizations. Each of them has their own working ethics or way of doing their jobs.

Here’s the summary of the main characters:

• Jeezy has a stylish outlook, versatile, and more open minded than the other two guys.
• Francis has a ‘Beethoven-look’, straight-forward person and much conservative than others.
• On the other hand, Jaden – who’s a GTD guy, and has his huge control of his time. However, he often mislead by GTD ideas that would affects his productivity at work.
