About this episode
Do you ever feel like there is a slow leak in your productivity throughout the day? It can be so easy to lose focus and get distracted by social media, reading the news, watching “just one” episode of a show, March Madness. But on this quick episode of Start with a Win, Adam gives some suggestions for preventing this productivity leakage:
- Build in some accountability by convincing yourself that wasting time is wrong
- Just try to be more committed to focusing – it will make a difference
- Set up a system of time blocking and stick to it
- Work on your emotional maturity and choice management
- Try a technique like the “pomodoro” technique – focus on the task at hand with no distractions and then take a 5-minute break
- Use an app like Focus@Will
