Deep Questions with Cal Newport
Managing Overload
Cal Newport
✨Key takeaways:
- Reduce current commitments to manage overload.
- Don't feel obligated to overcommit; prioritize important tasks.
- Example: Decline volunteer work, unnecessary social events, or less critical work tasks.
Reduce current commitments immediately when feeling overloaded. Don’t view pulling back from commitments as a failure. Prioritize and focus on the most important tasks instead. Example: step back from volunteer commitments, cancel less important social events, push back and decline work if needed to reduce overload.
