I will text or snap people for a few minutes and often i find myself scrolling through snapchats short form content because there are two tabs dedicated for 2 different types of shortform content and it is very addicting. Shortform content has also been proven to overload dopamine receptors more than some drugs litterally giving you withdrawls and heavily distracting you from what needs to get done.]]> 2023-09-02 02:42:50 UTC https://padlet.com/theodenross/6pcgkumzxg7p4x0s/wish/2681675779 theodenross https://padlet.com/theodenross/6pcgkumzxg7p4x0s/wish/2681676482 I often find myself overthinking for way too long about things that even remotely bother me and making decisions. This affects leadership by taking me out of the present moment.]]> 2023-09-02 02:45:22 UTC https://padlet.com/theodenross/6pcgkumzxg7p4x0s/wish/2681676482 theodenross https://padlet.com/theodenross/6pcgkumzxg7p4x0s/wish/2681678410 This affects my leadership by wasting my time, energy, and frustration on something that really doesn't matter. However, it has definitely improved my teamwork skills.]]> 2023-09-02 02:52:10 UTC https://padlet.com/theodenross/6pcgkumzxg7p4x0s/wish/2681678410 theodenross https://padlet.com/theodenross/6pcgkumzxg7p4x0s/wish/2681679404 I know it seems like it gives more hours to my day, but they are much less productive hours. The less I sleep the less capable I am at doing important tasks.]]> 2023-09-02 02:54:59 UTC https://padlet.com/theodenross/6pcgkumzxg7p4x0s/wish/2681679404 theodenross https://padlet.com/theodenross/6pcgkumzxg7p4x0s/wish/2681680558 Often if I don't want to do something important, I will procrastinate by doing something else deemed "productive". This is a complete waste of time because it is usually something I would do anyways and I am simply doing it sooner as an excuse to not do the harder thing.]]> 2023-09-02 02:58:51 UTC https://padlet.com/theodenross/6pcgkumzxg7p4x0s/wish/2681680558 theodenross https://padlet.com/theodenross/6pcgkumzxg7p4x0s/wish/2681682043 You cannot plow a field by turning it over in your mind. This is my favorite quote because its simple, very true, and I relate to it. I often find myself thinking about not wanting to do something for much longer than it would take to do it]]> 2023-09-02 03:03:33 UTC https://padlet.com/theodenross/6pcgkumzxg7p4x0s/wish/2681682043 theodenross https://padlet.com/theodenross/6pcgkumzxg7p4x0s/wish/2681683404
The easiest way for me to stop procrastination is to simply get myself to do a little bit of the task. I usually won't stop until I'm finished if I can reach a flow state.]]> 2023-09-02 03:07:54 UTC https://padlet.com/theodenross/6pcgkumzxg7p4x0s/wish/2681683404 theodenross https://padlet.com/theodenross/6pcgkumzxg7p4x0s/wish/2681685186 flow-state is a key component to doing work, this is why understanding it is important. The reason that people who enjoy their jobs are much better at them is that it is much easier to get into a flow state of something you enjoy however, you do not have to enjoy a task to reach a flow state. When you are in a flow state, all your unrelated thoughts go out the window and you are fully present. Understanding how flow state works will allow you to reach it much easier, increasing your productivity.]]> 2023-09-02 03:13:55 UTC https://padlet.com/theodenross/6pcgkumzxg7p4x0s/wish/2681685186 theodenross https://padlet.com/theodenross/6pcgkumzxg7p4x0s/wish/2681686625 if you already expect to do a specific task at a specific time, it will be easier to reach a flow state. Your brain will be expecting it and since you are fighting it less you will get into the rhythm of the task much easier. This makes self-discipline easier making you a better leader.]]> 2023-09-02 03:19:14 UTC https://padlet.com/theodenross/6pcgkumzxg7p4x0s/wish/2681686625
