11 Kill the monkey.
The “monkey mind” is a dangerous mindset where you let the thoughts in your head negatively impact the task
you’re currently working on.

Jot down the negative thought
on a piece of paper, then
explore the idea when you’re not
focused on a specific task.

22Close out email.
Email that is open all the time is too tempting.

it will master you.

out distracting sounds in their environment.

44 Manage (or avoid) meetings.
Most meetings are an incredible waste of time and human
resources.
![Page 14: 9 Strategies to Maximize Your Work Productivity](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032618/55b35bcdbb61eb04448b478b/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Either avoid meetings when you can or look for ways to streamline the
entire process.

- Conduct meetingsstanding up. - Set an agenda forthe meeting. - Put a time limiton each topic. - Only invite people to the meeting if they absolutely need to be there.

Productivity diminishes when people engage in multitasking.

Multitasking reduces creativity, causes a higher ratio of mistakes and
makes it harder to remember important details.

Work on one activity at a time and nothing else.

77 Learn to say no.
Whenever you say “yes” to a request, you say “no” to
something else in your life.
![Page 23: 9 Strategies to Maximize Your Work Productivity](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032618/55b35bcdbb61eb04448b478b/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Practice the “yes, but” method for some people you feel you can’t say no to, such as a boss.
![Page 24: 9 Strategies to Maximize Your Work Productivity](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032618/55b35bcdbb61eb04448b478b/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
This approach affirms the person and
opportunity without forcing you to give in
to a request that isn’t right for you.

delegate the rest to others.
