I have quickly learned that being busy isn’t, or at least shouldn’t be, a badge of honor because I quickly went from juggling to burnt out & drowning. The idea of multitasking became more like an addiction, and like most addictions, it wasn’t long before I saw how bad it really was for me — I wasn’t actually getting that much done & it was more detrimental than it was helpful.
So what do I instead? I have spent the past YEAR — yes, year! — training myself on how to “single-task” and more importantly, how to quiet anything that tries to pull my focus on the task at hand.
While I haven’t perfected this new lifestyle by any stretch of the imagination — hello, I’m still a mom! — I have picked up some pretty useful hacks & habits, and that’s what I want to dive into today. I want to share with you some of my single-tasking tricks & how they’ve helped me step up my productivity.
Mentioned Techniques:
• Thought Purging
• Prioritizing & Planning
• Batching & Single Tasking
Mentioned Tools:
• Trello from brain dumping and big picture, macro planning
• Powersheets for intentional & thoughtful goal planning from month to month & week to week.
• Undated Weekly Planner Pad for appointments & scheduling week to week
• Tomato One Pomodoro Timer App for more efficient time management & batching.
