A recent survey conducted through FlexJobs and Mental Health America found that 40% of remote painters experienced pandemic depletion. Given the pressures of fleeing the house (family demands, distractions from the family circle, extended hours), it is not difficult to perceive why remote groups while leaders cannot solve all the challenges of WFH, they can empower painters to avoid the busy paintings and bureaucracy that have infiltrated their 2020 calendars.
As a result of a simplification eBook (and a TED conference on the subject), one of my favorite techniques for separating valuable responsibilities from busy paints requires only one sheet of blank paper. Draw a line in the middle, dividing it into two Columns. Keeping in mind the unique roles you bring to your role and business goals, think about which of your responsibilities represents a productive use of your time. In the left column, list those activities and name them “Valuable Work”.
Perhaps your Valuable Work column includes “anticipating strategic threats” or “identifying new market opportunities. “You may be focusing on new products or new tactics to sell those products. Imagine how much you’d be willing to make a contribution each morning. if you had more time for the things you care about and if you waste less time on things you don’t care about.
Speaking of which, ask yourself now, “What current responsibilities do you occupy most of my time?”Check last month’s calendar and to-do lists to refresh your memory and be sure to list express responsibilities, not general projects, and their role in this task. For example, type “organize a weekly staff meeting” or simply “attend meetings”. “Write all your answers in the right column and call it “Current Tasks”.
Compare your two columns: how do they differ in terms of the busy boxes and boxes that matter?Finally, circle each detail in the right column (Current Tasks) that add price to the business. Now look at everything you haven’t surrounded and ask yourself, “Which of those responsibilities can I eliminate, outsource, or simplify to make room for the pieces in the Precious Work column?”Identify your goals by reviewing your to-do list and answering the questions below honestly.
If you are in a leadership position, you may be able to put your answers into effect immediately. If this is not the case, contact your manager to get your membership. Anyway, be ready to check the removal of a task for a few weeks or months to see if someone misses it, and if someone misses it, it doesn’t matter: it’s a sign that the task may be more valuable than it looks.
After the groups of a U. S. energy company have been able to re-use the U. S. But it’s not the first time They performed this exercise remotely, redesigned their decision-making procedure to avoid subsequent bottlenecks. Invite your own groups to use it as a sunflower control when they feel defeated or do not know what responsibilities to prioritize. Remote workers want to be able to simplify their workload without a lengthy formal procedure, demonstrating confidence in their judgment and recognizing the demanding daily situations of fleeing home in a pandemic.
I’m obsessed with simplification as a painting and trick of life. As founder and CEO of FutureThink in New York, I helped painters at Google, Novartis and Accenture Complex.

When I’m not giving a keynote address or A TedX conference anywhere in the world, I write books (Kill the Company and Why Simple Wins) or read them.

I have taught innovation and creativity at the universities of the United States and Fordham, and the North Pole is on my priority list because that’s where all time zones converge.
