We live in a hyperconnected, hyperactive world. Here are some recommendations to keep your focus: 1. Use Pomodoro. Default Pomodoro: 25 min focus, 5 min break. I like to do 18 min focus with 2 min breaks. (app hack: Focus To-Do) 2. Don't break your pomodoro by: a. Ignoring the message for 5-10 min until your pomodoro will end. b. Asking the person to wait 5-15 min because you want to finish something (no one usually minds) 3. When you do want to break your flow, write down where you are and what you wanted to do next, so that you don't have to spend 5-20 min remembering where you left off.

Don't feel like doing something? There may be a lot of reasons why you feel that way: - You're unsure about what you are supposed to do - You don't know exactly how to finish the task - You're afraid it may take a lot of time - etc. Analysing the motivations behind your feelings, might be useful, but in my experience it doesn't really help that much. If you just work, you'll see the negative feelings go away. So how can you take the plunge? Try this: - Log out of everything distracting: Facebook, Teams, Whatsapp, etc. - Set a Pomodoro for 7 minutes, break for 2 (app hack: Focus To Do) - Start focusing for 7 min, then gradually increase your focus time Remember: being able to focus is a skill. You'll get better as you practice.

'It's not what you say, it's HOW you say it!' Ever heard that from someone? Why does this matter so much? It's because body language and voice tone account for the overwhelming part of our message. So what makes us great communicators? 1. Being natural and positive 2. Speaking clearly and concisely

My favorites: 1. Being positive 2. Seeking the truth 3. Consistently practicing the right habits What are your secrets to a good life?
