Working For Yourself

Unlock Higher Productivity With This Paradigm Shift

Forget time management.

Energy is the true constraint to productivity.

Here's how to manage your energy better:

- Put your phone on Do Not disturb
- Work in short bursts
- Go for a walk as soon as you hit a wall

All the free time in the world won’t help you if you can’t focus.
