How I Improved My Productivity With The 50-Minute Focus Technique
As a writer, I often ask myself: How do I stay more productive and have less distractions?
I’ve read books and articles about time management and productivity. I’ve also tried many methods like creating a dedicated writing space, using productivity apps, turning off notifications, and so on.
I simply wanted to write faster and cut down the time it takes to finish a blog post or article because that’s how I can grow my business and make money.
I’ve written about how picking up your phone first thing in the morning can lead you down the rabbit hole.
Sometimes, I open Facebook and begin mindless scrolling, and before I know it, two hours have passed. I dislike the feeling of wasting time on unproductive activities.
In the past 90 days, I started trying out a “50-minute focus method” I came across in Ed Gandia’s email digest that focuses on improving how you work.
Ed is a “business-building coach and strategist for ambitious business writers and copywriters.” He said he uses this method and recommends it if you want to boost your productivity and grow your income.
