Improve Focus and Productivity & Get ACTUAL time OFF with the ON and OFF Rule
from Immersion · host Pamela Carey
Have you ever finished a LONG workday without much to show for it? One reason for this is being stuck in a "productivity limbo state" where you are in between working and relaxing. You may start to get a task done and then check a text. You then get back to work and then find yourself reading a news article soon after. A few more minutes of work then you are watching a video on social media. You end the day tired AND feeling like you didn't get much done because you didn't have any true focus or true rest. In this episode we discuss this phenomenon and a policy we can set with ourselves that may hold the solution. 🔑 The ON or OFF rule💡 Video version of the episode: https://youtu.be/0nta_RBGuu8Links mentioned in this episode: Channel on ADHD: https://www.youtube.com/@HowtoADHDCal’s work shutdown routine - I believe he wrote this in 2009 the blog says so it likely has changed some over the years in terms of systems but the principles would stay the same: https://calnewport.com/drastically-reduce-stress-with-a-work-shutdown-ritual/More on the Pomodoro technique: https://www.todoist.com/productivity-methods/pomodoro-techniqueLeave a voice message hereNewsletter sign upYouTube - channel Instagram - we will be posting here soon
