Hello, Productive .
Establish strategies for managing and minimizing interruptions, such as setting specific "quiet hours" or using tools to block out distractions.
When I want absolute silence, I work in my offcie with my door locked. Yes, thatβs the only way that I can stop my children form interrupting my focus every minutes or so.
Though they still knock on the door which distracts and infuriates me. At least, they don't physically come in. π
Another tactic that I use to manage and minimize distraction, is increasing the number of hours I use on a task as a buffer. This builds in time distraction from social media or web scrolling. I use my tablet or phoneβs Do Not Disturb (DND) feature which greys out some apps and leave only critical ones such as call and sms message.
Your task for today.
Create your system for handling interruptions at work and personal lives.
To a productive you,
Your Productivity Buddy.
