Recommendation

The concept of “time management” is so passé, says productivity trainer Graham Allcott, who asserts that the ability to accomplish tasks depends on how well you manage your attention, not your time. In an engaging talk, Allcott outlines the nine habits 21st-century knowledge workers must adopt to be productive. If your phone, emails, and other distractions vie for your attention, you’ll benefit from Allcott’s advice.

Take-Aways

  • The secret to productivity lies in how well you manage your attention, not your time. 
  • Setting clearly defined goals will help you get into a state of flow. Experiment with various ways of managing your time to find which techniques work best for you.
  • Protect the daily two- to three-hour window when you are most productive. Practice “tactical hiding” – working offline or in a space where no one can interrupt you – to safeguard this time.
