Kate walks you through her process for list-making, starting with making your list with the quickest and fastest thing. Then, break down the big pieces into smaller parts underneath them and rearrange them as needed.
(8:28) Kate’s scheduling game-changer: People days!
Kate emphasizes the importance of “people days”: what they are, how they’re helpful, and why they’re so effective in keeping your focus in check.
(11:25) How “Mini-Batching” saves your productivity…
If you are struggling with a plan for getting a lot done, Kate dives into how you can use “mini-batching” to tackle your bigger plans.
(12:40) Need accountability? Try co-working sessions!
If you do your best work when you’re with someone else, gather at a shared office space or hop on a zoom call with some of your work besties. Sometimes having the presence of others can keep you motivated to get it done!
