1 Habit That Decreases Your Productivity As An Entrepreneur

As an entrepreneur, time is one of the most valuable assets you have. It is also the most limited resource. So to maximize your productivity you need to have good time management in place, which also involves giving up on certain habits like multi-tasking.

It may seem like multi-tasking is saving you time, but when you look at the results you'll know it eats up your productivity.

It is one of the most dangerous habits every businessman and career man must avoid in order to be highly productive.

Multi-tasking

Here's the eternal truth, we all suck at multitasking. There is no way you'll do a great job if your attention is divided. Your ideas (if you get any) won't sit together, they just don't make sense. Multi-tasking will always make you do a crappy job.

According to research, multitasking makes you work with the effectiveness of a 10-year-old. That's because you need to give your 100% to whatever you're doing at the time. Something multi-tasking takes away from you.

Multi-tasking makes you give less than your best, which brings mediocre results. Avoid it.

I agree to disagree
What research?
If you can't multi-task, you will be stressed as fuck when everything goes sideways at once.
life isn't an exam, where you can sit down, in a quiet room, focus and solve 1 test question at a time

I admire your motives. I can't post links here but this statement is from a government site: "In everyday society, the ability to perform multiple tasks at work is often praised as a faster way to get more done. A study in the Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, however, indicates the opposite. The authors found that multitasking is actually less efficient because it takes extra time to shift mental gears every time a person switches between tasks."

I really thought you name fapping as the habit lol..

However you guys can try to pause work after 90 min for like 5-10min to stay focused and concentrated. That helped me a lot
