I Was Super Productive Today…

January 11, 2023 by Dror Allouche Leave a Comment

I was super productive today…

But I feel drained and not efficient.

What if the magic (more efficient + meaningful) happened in the spaces?

Slow down to speed up

  • The empty time between two meetings. 15 to 30 min. Can be the most productive time of your day. Why? It’s your reflection. What do I do with what I’ve heard? What is interesting about this exchange?
  • Improve your leadership. Don’t add a new habit. Instead, look for ways to remove one that is not helping you.
  • 1:1 meeting. “Excuse me a second, this is important.” You quickly respond to an email before resuming your conversation. You won’t have the same quality of exchange. Take the time to be present in each of your meetings.
  • Silence. Pause in a discussion to think about what I am going to say. Is it worth it? Often the answer is no. So silence…

Don’t fill, empty.
And watch the magic happen
