Double Your Productivity Here is a simple way to double your productivity. First, plan each day in
advance, select your most important task, and then start on that task first
thing, before you do anything else. Second, work nonstop for ninety minutes
with no diversion or distraction, and then give yourself a fifteen-minute break.
Third, start again and work another ninety minutes flat out. Finally, after this
three-hour work period, you can
then reward yourself with a shot of dopamine
by checking your e-mail.
When you develop the habit of completing three hours of important work
each morning, first thing, you will both double your productivity and break
yourself of the habit of checking your e-mail all day long. You will regain full
control of your life.
