Make Time for Work That Matters
New research by Atlassian's Team Anywhere Lab suggests that designing your workday around top priorities helps you be productive and less exhausted. Atlassian ran an experiment where participants redesigned their calendars to focus on high-impact work.
This involved declining non-essential meetings and allocating specific time blocks for different types of work, like deep focus and collaboration or even responding to messages.
Results showed improved progress on top priorities and better goal clarity.
