Basics 7: The Productivity 'Yes's

1. Yes to focus; no to the people/digital distraction.
2. Yes to timed work units: 90 minutes; no to multi-tasking/micro-scheduling.
3. Yes to breaks: 5 minutes end of work units, 45 minutes lunch time, proper evenings and full week-ends; no to 'always on'.
4. Yes to a list: based on the vital few; no to a list full of the trivial many.
5. Yes to the bigger picture: meditation-exercise-diet-sleep; no to productivity by adrenaline and caffeine.
6. Yes to systems to automate; no to time wasted on low pay-off items.
7. Yes to purpose; no to TGIF.
