Such a great idea!
It’s a strange world where we are needing to silence our friends, but the truth is that the best work comes without distraction. And how often have we been trying to do something, then got involved with a WhatsApp conversation, and given neither the project nor our friends group the deserved amount of attention?!
Multi-tasking, whether at work or at play, is so overrated. I was reading a book recently that focussed on this idea of undistracted work - ‘Deep Work’ by Cal Newport. There’s a lot of evidence that we can better master skills by focussing hard on one project.
I guess, though, it’s all about self-discipline at the end of the day… but anything tech can do to help with that deserves praise!
