TIP 2600 – Zerotasking

Work Smart Live Smart with Beverly Beuermann-King

Listen to today's podcast...

Sometimes when we try to multi-task, we may actually freeze up, lock up, or quit performing at our peak.

There is so much pressure to get things done in a day, that we try to split our focus and work on several things at once.

Researchers have studied human multi-tasking for the past 25 years or so and have found that the brain cannot fully focus when multi-tasking. We take longer to complete tasks, often double or more the time, and are predisposed to error.

Take One Action Today To Build Your #Resiliency!

Here Are My Tips For Building Resilience and Celebrating ZeroTasking Day:

Today is the day to take it easy, give up multitasking, and try doing nothing. Not for the whole day. But try for an hour. And if that is too long, try 20 minutes. See how you feel and if being anxious was the only thing that you could focus on, know that being able to be still for a moment and quiet your mind and body takes practise. If you weren’t successful, try again next weekend.

Finally, let go of the idea that the more we tackle at any given time, the more productive we will be.

Maintain your productivity by setting your priorities for a focused period of time and don’t let distractions take you off course.
