    How to focus at work (Infographic)

    Been surfing Funders and Founders quite a fair bit and saw this infographic:

    how-to-focus-hacks

    The following works for me:

    1. Turning off my phone – My phone that is far away from me and I only check it during breaks.
    2. Shutting off everything – Chat apps are absolutely distracting for me. I do use Slack for work purposes though.
    3. Clearing my desk – Call me OCD, but messy desks are absolute no-no.
    4. Putting on headphones – It is sorta an indication to tell the others that “I’m in the zone”.
    5. Making a list – It tells me which are the top 3 tasks I need to work on every single day and keeps me focused.
