Well allow me to explain group. In this new article by Lisa Evans- she explains how less is more. People tend to be involved with so many tasks that they end up being stressed, and producing poor work. Lisa advises to strategically slack off to produce better quality work. For example, when she blogs, instead of blogging everyday, she limited 2-3 time per week. What she found was that her following went up and her work become more coveted since there was less of it. There are 3 steps to strategically slacking off as follows:
1. EXAMINE YOUR LIFE
Write down all the categories of things that take up your time in your personal and professional life—such as meetings, making dinner, helping kids with homework, email, etc. Then write down the things you wish you were doing that you’re not doing right now.
2. RATE YOUR ACTIVITIES ON A JOY SCALE
Go through the list of activities and indicate whether it’s one that brings you joy and you wish you could do more of or if it's something you dread and wish you could do less of. "You don’t want to minimize the things in your life that are actually bringing you joy. That’s not an appropriate place to find the minimum effective dose," says Carter.
3. FIND YOUR MINIMUMOnce you've identified the things that drag you down, consider whether you can change the amount of time and energy you put into each of these things, finding your minimum effective dose.
Feel free to read the brief article attached so you too can learn how to correctly slack off!!!
