With February being the shortest month of the year, time blocking becomes even more critical. This technique involves dedicating specific blocks of time to focused work on particular tasks, rather than constantly switching between different activities throughout the day.
How to implement it:
• Schedule your most important work during your peak energy hours
• Block out 90-minute focused work sessions with 15-minute breaks
• Protect these time blocks by turning off notifications and closing unnecessary applications
• Communicate your focused work times to colleagues to minimize interruptions
