  • Keep a list of things you want to do when you have some free time. What have you been putting off? When you see some hours or days opening up in your schedule, you can turn to this list. 
  • Keep another list of things you can streamline or delegate when you’re extra busy. Can you set up a grocery delivery so you don’t have to make a trip to the store? Skip that meeting you’ve attended faithfully every week until now?

How to not let your curiosity derail your productivity

Don't ignore your curious impulses. Your curiosity is an important part of who you are. 

  • Give yourself time to explore.
  • When you come across something interesting, ask yourself, “How will this benefit me?” If it’s just something you want to read that won’t improve your life in some way, skip it or save it for later. After all, new and interesting content is being generated every day, all the time.
