How turning off my notifications saved my business.

3 months ago I made a decision (at the recommendation of my brilliant coach) to turn off my business-related notifications.

Wait for it, not just some of them…all of them!

Slack, Asana, Voxer, Whatsapp….the list goes on and on.

Why you wonder?! Because the notifications constantly popping up on my computer and phone were making it near impossible for me to be able to remain focused during my time blocked work periods.

Yes, I am a big Pomodoro Technique advocate and swear by using time blocks to make my days as efficient as possible.

So one night I sat down and I did all of the following;

✔️Muted Voxer notifications

✔️Muted WhatsApp notifications

✔️Muted Slack notifications

✔️Turned off Asana notifications outside of working hours

✔️✔️Set up a reminder (with notification) in my calendar to check my apps 3 times per working day!

Guess what the result has been? More sleep, more time to be more present, a more hydrated me, a calmer me, a more focused me, and a WAY more successful business!

I challenge you today, to turn off one notification and see what it does for your business!
