‘Is your life doomed to endless task switching?’

If you are not getting things done, you are not spending your time wisely. If you want to change it, ask yourself, ‘What do I want to get done right now? What is important to me right now?’

Remember, how you use your time is your choice. If you want to do well, use your time to do good things.

To reclaim your time, according to Richie Norton, ‘You can make your work commitment support your personal ones. Your personal life doesn’t have to be sacrificed on the altar of your work.’

‘Purpose before process, not process before purpose.’

‘Flexibility isn’t your boss’s gift to give. You must create it yourself- even if you are your own boss.’

‘Good things happen not by managing time but by prioritizing attention.’

‘You don’t have to work toward your dreams when you work from them. Whether you work for someone else or yourself, you can master your time.’

‘If you value your time, your life will match your values.’

‘How you measure your future success has a massive impact on how you choose to live today.’

‘Make your time relevant to your dreams.’

‘If you want to reclaim your life, start by reclaiming your time.’

‘It’s not always about changing what you prioritize but how and when you make priorities matter.’

‘Align purpose to establish priorities and create projects for work-life flexibility.’

‘Make room for more time by acknowledging where time got you, what you want to do with your time in the future, and working on it now.’

Productivity is not about what you are doing. Productivity is about how you are doing what you are doing. If you want to achieve more at work, focus on what matters.

If you want to boost your productivity at work, according to Laura Mae Martin, ‘Say no to everything, except the things you say yes to.’

‘To achieve Uptime, you must prioritize downtime.’

‘Pick something that’s sitting in your inbox or weighing on you that you’d like to say no to.’

‘Keep a notepad at your desk for two weeks. Anytime you’re feeling in the zone- exceptionally productive- write down some of the conditions. Notice patterns.’

‘Be in charge of your day, not at a mercy of it.’

‘Choosing specific locations for specific tasks helps you ease into them.’

‘Beware the recurring meeting that lingers on your calendar even after it has served its purpose.’

‘Choose a lens for looking at your calendar with the time review mindset.’

‘Spend thirty minutes or less reviewing your time to look at things like total time spent or average weekly time.’

‘The best way to get ahead of procrastination is to make sure you’re slotting the right work at the right time.’

‘Find a task you’ve been putting of-ask yourself what daily theme and time of day would be the best time to do this and schedule to work on it then.’

‘Swiss-chess the task down to the tiniest task possible, and write that as your to-do list item, including the amount of time estimated to complete it.’
