Happy Wednesday!  Here’s something to help get you over the hump before we head into a nice long weekend . . . 3:00 p.m. tends to be when a lot of us hit a wall.  So someone asked a productivity expert how to blast through it.

 

 

Here are four ways to beat your afternoon slump.

 

 

1.  Know how you’re wired.  If you start anticipating your slump, you can front-load your day and knock the hardest stuff out early.

 

 

2.  Leverage small wins.  Crossing something small off your list creates a sense of accomplishment.  It can give you a burst of energy and keep you motivated.

 

 

3.  Connect with others.  Take five minutes to check in with a co-worker.  Micro-breaks can help shake the afternoon fog, especially if you interact with people.

 

 

4.  Change your environment.  Move to another room, or step outside for some fresh air.  Staying in the same spot too long can make you sluggish.
