Even as we age we can still learn. For example, our ederly President recently learned that dumb had a B. Who knew? He didn't.

A10b A productive day isn't necessarily the day with the longest to-do list, the most hours worked or the most boxes checked. It may be the day that gets the right things done with the least wasted effort. #DigiBlogChat
A10 So, since our dishwasher is out until the repair person comes next week I can stop washng dishes by hand then. #DigiBlogChat
Carol Stephen@carolstephen.bsky.social · 4w agoQ10. What chores can you stop doing manually? And will you? #DigiBlogChat
A8 How much interuptons slow productivity. Eventually I turned off all notifications (among other things) and told people if it was urgent text or call me. #DigiBlogChat
Carol Stephen@carolstephen.bsky.social · 4w agoQ8. What's one thing about productivity that you wish you'd known earlier? #DigiBlogChat
Yes! BTW before the Frog it was called the Gumpton Factor. #DigiBlogChat
LazBlazter@lazblazter.bsky.social · 4w agoA6. Tackling the heaviest, most ambiguous task first thing in the morning clears immense mental overhead. Leaving the "frog" lingering until late afternoon only drains willpower and leads to avoidance. #DigiBlogChat
A4 Most of my career I was a workaholic. Being "semi" retired I've learned to let it go. #DigiBlogChat
Carol Stephen@carolstephen.bsky.social · 4w agoQ4. Have you found that your attitude toward being productive has changed over the years? #DigiBlogChat
Exactly Larry #DigiBlogChat
LazBlazter@lazblazter.bsky.social · 4w agoA3. Don't delay, do it today. Prevarication kicks in if you delay, especially for things you have lesser levels of enjoyment from or commitment to. Break them down into micro-commitments, five or ten minutes lowers the barrier and, once momentum takes over, friction disappears. #DigiBlogChat
Yes, yes, yes! I just had a talk with a group of young managers about how to limit and not create task switching with their teams. #DigiBlogChat
Jim Katzaman - Persevering Writer@jkatzaman.bsky.social · 4w agoTask switching has a cost. The APA notes that doing multiple complex tasks at once can reduce efficiency because the brain must repeatedly shift attention. #DigiBlogChat
A1 I know very lttle but alternate energy comes to mind -- solar, wind, thermal. #DigiBlogChat
