Course description
Increase Your Energy and Productivity Using the Science of Timing and Focus
Do you find yourself distracted throughout the workday, quickly hitting the point of diminishing returns with mental clarity? Do you end your days drained of energy, or full of life? In this attention economy we inhabit, the ability to maintain focus and concentration is every bit as important as technical or management skills.
In this highly interactive session, you will discover why single-tasking during your hours of peak productivity is more effective than “multitasking” throughout the day. (You will also learn that human beings don’t multitask.) After identifying your chronotype, you’ll learn how to schedule your day to match tasks to the fluctuating pattern of energy and focus. You will explore mindfulness techniques as well as various tactics to minimize distractions and optimize your attention and mental clarity. Finally, you will learn that productivity is not about how much we produce, but how much we accomplish.
