If You've Ever Described Yourself as a Multitasker, You Need to Read This
(While You Still Can)
Have you ever described yourself as a "great multitasker"?
You may want to remove that from your resume...
Did you know that multitasking actually makes you less productive?
And it can even have negative effects on your brain.
Okay, you'll still be able to read...but researchers at the Univ. of London found that multitasking with electronic media causes a greater decrease in IQ than smoking marijuana or losing one night's sleep!
This is a big consequence considering a lot of people think multitasking is a great skill.
There's a misconception that juggling multiple tasks at once leads to higher productivity, but that's clearly not the case.
Setting priorities and focusing on one task at a time is the best way to increase productivity and accomplish more of your daily goals.
But that's easier said than done.
Luckily, someone invented this awesome productivity hack...
My boss, who is a successful inventor and entrepreneur came up with this tool and decided to share it with his team.
He wasn't sure if it would work for everyone.
But as soon as I incorporated this simple, effective tool into my routine, my productivity and motivation sky-rocketed.
This clever productivity tool helped me:
- STOP MULTITASKING by forcing me to identify my top three priorities
- INCREASE FOCUS by giving me a physical reminder of the task at hand
- STOP PROCRASTINATING so I can accomplish more of my daily goals
So what is this genius productivity tool?
It's called the OnTask. Well, actually it's the free, paper version of the OnTask.
The OnTask is a three-sided desktop task list that forces you to prioritize and accomplish your most important daily goals.
For a limited time, you can download the paper version below. It's a great way to try out the OnTask system before purchasing the physical desktop tool (which I highly recommend btw.)
But I'm all about DIY so why not out the free DIY version and see how you like it.
It's SO easy to make and use. And it's really effective once you incorporate into your routine.
This is how I incorporate the OnTask (or paper download) into my routine to maximize productivity...
1. Get to the office (and grab coffee.)
2. Review my master task list to determine my top three priorities for the day.
3. Write my top three daily goals on the OnTask (or paper download), one task on each side. (Make sure your highest priority task is facing you first)
4. After completing one task, simply rotate your OnTask to your next priority.
5. Erase and repeat!
Important Tip: Don't check your email first thing in the morning!
Why? Because we tend to feel a sense of urgency when we get an email asking for something.
But it’s important to stop and ask yourself, “Is this task really my highest priority?”
The good news is that the OnTask can help you break this self-sabotaging habit.
Writing out your priorities BEFORE checking your email is a great way helps you stay focused on your most important tasks.
If I let incoming emails dictate my entire day, I’d never accomplish anything on my task list.
That’s why it’s important to keep the OnTask on your desk, in front of you, so you stay focused on your high priority daily goals.
So if you're struggling to focus and end your day with more accomplished tasks, I highly recommend downloading this FREE paper OnTask.
