Are you aware :: what (3) things drastically amp up productivity?
(1) Doing ONE thing at a time.
Research proves when focusing on (1) thing…
stress levels drop <> happiness levels rise
quality of effectiveness + accuracy increases
completion rate heightens
Nerd tip :: working on a single task allows both sides of our prefrontal cortex to work in harmony.
Adding another task forces the left and right sides of our brain to function independently of one another -
❌hindering productivity❌
Attention residue, if you will.
100% of our attention will not automatically go toward a new task.
40% of our energy, most times - remains absorbed in the initial task.
(2) Know our best time to be productive.
✔️put the most important activity within
Best energy in the AM or PM?
<> do our best work during that time <>
Audit ourselves, becoming more aware of our energy levels
and schedule accordingly.
Examples ::
no email until 11AM
spend the first 30 minutes or 2 hours of our day focusing on what we want to deliver that day
proactively launch or end day with - what we want vs being reactive to other requests
(3) Set (1) goal of the day.
✔️the most important thing to do
Craft intention surrounding what we choose to knock out that given day, substantially increasing value to our week.
…& this can be something as simple as a household task
(laundry / dishes / the floors … you get it;)
✨personal tasks, inject lightness✨
opening us up for elevated focus professionally knowing it’s complete
Pro tip :: remember - small bites add up to big wins
In the wildly demanding lifestyles we lead, absorb we won’t be successful at this every day… and that is OKAY!!
Give (1) or all (3) a try and experience the impact on our productivity + holistic well-being!
