Workflow

Pinged all day? Check messages at two set times

Before the small shift

The moment

Checking messages every few minutes breaks your day into small pieces.

A way in

Try this

  1. Pick two set times today to check messages, for example 11am and 4pm.
  2. Close messaging apps in between.
  3. Open them again only at those times.

If you try it

What might shift

Your focus time stays in one piece.

Check your workplace norms first: some roles can’t go quiet for hours. Pick times that fit yours.
