Protip: 2 Super Easy Ways To Be More Productive

On average it takes 23 minutes and 15 seconds to refocus after an interruption. Most often we are interrupted by ourselves (40% of times) and by an email or other external message (23%). *

“we have become social media junkies.”

My interpretation is that the interruption we do by ourselves, is mostly because we have become social media junkies. The reason is explained in the infograph below. For the full infograph please visit this link.

So to get more things done do the following:

1. Make a deal with yourself that no social media fixes during the hours you really want to make things happen.
2. Turn of the email/application notifications, and check your email only few times a day. People will call you if in a desperate need of your assistance.
3. Get several hours of productive time per day.
4. Profit!
