Happy – STP043
Some of the USEFUL stuff in there is:
A recommendation from Charles Duhigg (Author of Smarter Faster Better and The Power of Habit)
It was this excellent piece by Alice Boyes at Harvard Business Review:
Why we fail at focusing on what’s important
How to change that
Schedule time for them
Isolate the most impactful bits
Anticipate and manage your feelings of anxiety
Spend less time on unimportant tasks
Prioritise tasks that will reduce your number of urgent/unimportant tasks
Pay attention to what helps you see and track the bigger picture
A podcast recommendation we’ve made before – 10% Happier
Being happy doesn’t just mean laughing, it can also come from feeling uplifted
The latest episodes of 10% Happier do just that, give them a listen
If you want to just get things done in the day we found a resource with 5 quick tips
It was compiled by Ashley Stahl at Forbes.com
We’ve covered these tips in various guises before, but they are worth revisiting and checking in with ourselves by asking, “Do I do these well?”
Stop multitasking
Take breaks
Set small goals
Take care of the biggest tasks when you are most alert
Implement the two minute rule
Question – What are you doing when you are happiest?
The answer may not be what you think
We look at and listen to the Ted Talk by Matt Killingsworth
He explains how he created an app that 15,000 people responded to
From 650,000 reports, he learned that there is one thing we’re doing more than anything else when we are happy
You’ll have to watch the talk, or listen to the episode to find out!
