Time Chunking: How to Maximize Your Productivity with Focused Sessions
Share
The concept of time chunking is simple: instead of multitasking, you dedicate specific blocks of time to specific tasks. The 22-Hour Expert approach incorporates this technique to help you stay focused and efficient.
In today’s fast-paced world, it's tempting to juggle multiple tasks at once, but studies show that multitasking actually decreases productivity. Instead, time chunking allows you to immerse yourself completely in one task at a time. By working in focused intervals, you’ll reduce distractions, increase the quality of your output, and maintain energy throughout the day.
Here’s how it works:
-
Choose one task you want to accomplish.
-
Set a timer for a specific time block (e.g., 25–45 minutes).
-
Work only on that task during the chunk of time, and avoid checking your email or social media.
-
Once the timer goes off, take a short break, then move on to the next task or another time block.
The more you practice time chunking, the more you’ll see how powerful it can be in helping you focus on what matters most. It’s a strategy that helps you accomplish more with less effort. One client, Sarah, found when she implemented this for herself and her remote team, profits, customer and staff satisfaction increased. Clarity is kind.
When you do this as a leader, make sure you communicate your schedule and hold it loosely, always being open for changes. Want to learn how to do this for your team? calendly.com/22hourexpert
