How to make a good first impression
Similar to the way you need both exploration and exploitation in order to foster innovation, you need both open loops and closed loops to produce great work.
First, you create open loops to cultivate your creativity; then, you close those loops to increase your productivity.

There is no doubt multitasking is a productivity killer. However, great work is not purely about being productive — we need to be creative as well.
Research suggests that the more ideas we generate, the more creative they become. Focusing on one thing at a time too early in the creative process defeats the purpose of the exploration phase.

In order to balance discovery with efficiency, we should practice open exploration for creativity, and then focus on one thing at a time for productivity.
For example, if you're trying to learn a new skill, start by exploring different educational channels to see which one would work best for your learning goals; then, commit to one, and stick with it for a while. Don’t fall into the trap of starting a new course every few weeks without completing any.

Best app ever! You heard it right. This app has helped me get back on my quest to get things done while equipping myself with knowledge everyday.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!
