Happy – STP043

Some of the USEFUL stuff in there is:

1. A recommendation from Charles Duhigg (Author of Smarter Faster Better and The Power of Habit)

2. It was this excellent piece by Alice Boyes at Harvard Business Review:

3. Why we fail at focusing on what’s important

4. How to change that

5. Schedule time for them

6. Isolate the most impactful bits

7. Anticipate and manage your feelings of anxiety

8. Spend less time on unimportant tasks

9. Prioritise tasks that will reduce your number of urgent/unimportant tasks

10. Pay attention to what helps you see and track the bigger picture

11. A podcast recommendation we’ve made before – 10% Happier

12. Being happy doesn’t just mean laughing, it can also come from feeling uplifted

13. The latest episodes of 10% Happier do just that, give them a listen

14. If you want to just get things done in the day we found a resource with 5 quick tips

15. It was compiled by Ashley Stahl at Forbes.com

16. 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?”

17. Stop multitasking

18. Take breaks

19. Set small goals

20. Take care of the biggest tasks when you are most alert

21. Implement the two minute rule

22. Question – What are you doing when you are happiest?

23. The answer may not be what you think

24. We look at and listen to the Ted Talk by Matt Killingsworth

25. He explains how he created an app that 15,000 people responded to

26. From 650,000 reports, he learned that there is one thing we’re doing more than anything else when we are happy

27. You’ll have to watch the talk, or listen to the episode to find out!
