How to Create Time for Focused Work in the Aid World

How to Create Time for Focused Work in the Aid World

In last week's episode, Chen Kadungure and I talked about how to create focus and eliminate distractions so you can do more focused or deep work.

Once again deep work is focused, uninterrupted, undistracted work on a task that pushes your cognitive abilities to their limit.

Examples of this include——writing or reviewing a donor report, proposal writing, strategic planning, or creating a new way of doing something.

So that’s all well and good, but how do we actually CREATE time for focused work??

What I see happen to my coachees is they have the focused work on their calendar but then they struggle with protecting that time and following through with their plan.

In this episode, Chen Kadungure and I will share ways you can overcome these challenges which if you follow you will be able to create and protect time for more focused, important work.
