I might be biased, but recording all the meetings with bluedothq.com has been very helpful. When I explain something to my intern, or just doing customer calls. I always record.

@wreit Yes, of course, in my product your tasks can be split into several other parts that are much more convenient to work with. If you need help, we have AI Ixy with whom you can communicate by voice. Priorities, tags, list customization. There is so much functionality here that there are video guides in the product. If you have any questions, message me on LinkedIn.

Definitely the Pomodoro technique! I usually have a timer for 25 minutes and force myself to stand up for a minute, but to be honest, I never want to! I really have to force myself even though I know it helps me to stay focused and not get lost within my work. It's the best technique for me and it really speeds me up. Prevented me countless time from working for the trash and I have a love-hate relationship with it.

I set deadlines for everything! Even for the tiniest task possible, like for example 10mins to respond to emails. If its a long task, I reward myself with a break or snack :)

One of my favorite productivity hacks when working remotely is to use the Pomodoro Technique. The method involves working for a focused 25-minute period and then taking a 5-minute break. After four cycles, take a longer break

@byalexai I like this!!

@byalexai do the same. I work together with my wife. We use https://cuckoo.team as a shared Pomodoro timer and have the rule that we can only interrupt during breaks, which ensures we can have undistracted productivity chunks.
