Start creating an environment of peace, quiet, and tranquility where you are free from distractions to make it a place of focus and work.
The following checklist will help you with optimizing your environment to ensure the highest possible focus and energy.
Digitally:
- [ ] 1 computer – more computers = more issues, you only need 1
- [ ] 1 phone – more phones = more issues, you only need 1
- [ ] No tablets or ipads – you don’t need it for work, don’t make excuses for yourself to get distracted
- [ ] 1 screen – more than 1 screen = multitasking, you need to focus
- [ ] Minimal Apps – use only the bare minimum apps on your computer for work and try to constantly delete apps on your phone
- [ ] Phone Off – have your phone on DND or far away from you, only touch during emergencies or for work. Social media is not work
- [ ] Clean Desktop – messy desktop = unorganized = distracted and unfocused
Physically:
- [ ] Clean – dust, dirt and grime are sources of negative energy that distract and interfere with comfort and motivation
- [ ] Organized – find what you want when you want it, save time, you’re able to move faster and feel more in control and empowered
