The Growstr Weekly - 20/09/2023 🌱

Hello Growth Enthusiasts!

As the fall season approaches, it’s a time of reflection and an opportunity to reevaluate our goals and growth trajectory. In this edition, we’re exploring productivity, harnessing the wisdom of acclaimed authors, and sharing a few must-reads to propel you on your journey.

Let’s start with some productivity hacks to embrace:

Time-blocking: Allocate specific blocks of time for particular activities. This reduces the friction of starting and helps you dive deeper into tasks.
The 2-minute rule: If it takes less than two minutes, do it now. Simple tasks should not clutter your to-do list.
Limit multitasking: Contrary to popular belief, multitasking can reduce efficiency. Focus on one task at a time and give it your undivided attention.
Prioritize tasks: Use the Eisenhower Box or ABCD method to classify tasks based on their urgency and importance.
Digital detox: Set aside periods where you disconnect from screens to refresh your mind and increase creativity.

Quote of the week:

“The only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven’t found it yet, keep looking. Don’t settle.”

Steve Jobs
