Business Marketing with Nika · Answer

I incorporated reading book – every day – one chapter.

Lately, I was so busy, dividing my attention but when you want to read and understand some scientific topic, you need to be very focused.

So I am trying to get back and "drill" my concentration reading a book (on academic topic) in a foreign language.

Simply trying to do one thing at a time. Used to do two things at a time, like watching youtube while eating. Got rid of that habit this week. Although a little uncomfortable initially, I'm already feeling a little less tense. What about you?

Ja Zzy · Answer

Chunking similar tasks together.
I’m trying something new this week: task batching. Instead of switching between completely unrelated tasks, I’m grouping similar ones together. For example, I’ll handle all emails in one sitting, then focus solely on creative work afterward. So far, it’s helped me stay more focused and waste less time context-switching.

Answer

A very small one - I've been focusing on going to bed early and waking up early. With winter here, it's been harder to wake up as easily as I did in summer. So, I've made it a rule to go to bed before 11 PM and to get up right away in the morning without checking my phone. It's been working really well, and I feel great!
