Productivity
Tell me why
Want to uncover the real reason behind your procrastination? Ask yourself ‘why?’ at least three times.
Why am I putting this task off? Because I’m afraid I’ll get it wrong.
Why? Because I don’t have a clear idea of the brief.
Why? Because I’m scared to ask my manager for more details.
Now you know what you need to do!
Teamwork
What are we talking about?
Most human conversations can be divided into three types:
- practical (what are we trying to do here?)
- emotional (how are we feeling?)
- social (getting closer together)
To communicate more effectively, identify what kind of conversation you’re having early on.
Productivity
A positive frame
We have a lot of thoughts each day - and keeping them all positive is almost impossible.
But to give yourself a good start to the day, try to have an empowering thought after waking up.
And to give yourself better rest, finish your day with a positive thought too!
