Welcome to another episode of ‘My Pocket Psych’, where this
time we discuss: talking to your to-do list, keeping digital notes,
welcoming a four-day week and how flexible working arrangements can
reinforce gender stereotypes. Whew!
All that and a look at the importance of a mindful focus on
our tasks to support productivity.
We'd love to hear about your productivity challenges or your
tips for getting more of the right stuff done. And when it comes to
the principle of presence, what interferes with your focus? What
distracts you?
