Feeling Unproductive
Transcript:
In trying times like these, here's what you can do to feel more productive.
So, redefine what productivity looks like. And you know, despite your best efforts, it might be really tough to feel productive these days. Living and working in this coronavirus environment means finding new ways of defining, redefining productivity and measuring your success. That might mean that you get through zoom call without your dog interrupting your or that you successfully reconnect with your team members, just to check in and see how they're doing.
Take a break to get a perspective. Research tells us that we do need to step away and can't be constantly working. When we can press the reset button by pulling away and pausing, that allows us to access the one thing that we can control, which is our perspective.
Remember to cut yourself in your brain some slack. So during periods of ongoing stress, our brain is actually wired to kind of shut down that logical thought process, and move into reactive mode, which is never a great idea. So just be kind to yourself. Remember it's your neurobiology. Be kind yourself and give yourself a break.
