The Psychology of Doing Less (And Getting More Done)

Описание: If you feel busy all day but nothing moves, it’s usually an attention problem, not a discipline problem.

In this video you’ll learn:
Why constant task switching quietly drains focus
How to pick one “win” so you actually finish something
How to use a Not-To-Do list to protect attention
How to batch work into modes (focus mode vs admin mode)
Why “finish a slice before you switch” makes your brain feel lighter
How natural pace + quality creates more output over time

Try this today:
1) Pick one win you’ll be relieved to finish.
2) Make it smaller than your ego wants.
3) Do one clean block of focus, then one clean block of admin.
4) Before switching, finish one small slice you can close.

Question for you: what’s the ONE thing you’re dropping this week so your main work can move?
