![]() ![]() ![]() It’s a great method to boost everyday productivity too! Work with intention ![]() Time boxing isn’t just for those extra-busy days with a never-ending todolist. The idea is to not let distractions in-so if you’re trying to code, but find yourself abandoning your screen to make calls or reply to texts every few minutes …please. This method is promoted by productivity experts everywhere, especially for people prone to getting distracted during work or those who find it difficult to focus with other things begging for attention at the back of their mind. The time boxing or time blocking method is a productivity and time management tool in which you divide your scheduled weekly tasks into specific time blocks, each of the one-hour intervals is dedicated to one specific task or set of tasks. Do you do this with your day? And does it help you stay productive, create tasks in advance, and cross things off the todo list quickly? If yes, be proud! You’ve cracked the code to time blocking!

Today as I sat down to write this, I had about a million things to do. ![]()
