How to Get Work Done in a Distracted World: Anatomy of a Habit - Melissa Spoelstra

"The distraction culture of constant texts, calls, and emails can keep us from deep work. The urgent can crowd out the important goals and dreams we often relegate to the back burner: the prayer life we long to develop or the new ministry plan we want to design. Time is the only commodity we can’t get back! This seminar will help you identify common distractions and excuses that keep you from getting important work done and develop useful strategies and habits for prioritising tasks and organising your day.

Part 2: This session explores the anatomy of habits. While we want to rise to the level of our goals, we often fall to the level of the systems we put in place to enact new patterns. We identify how habits are developed and practical tools for eliminating bad habits as well as implementing new ones. God has called us to redeem the time He has given us so we can set ourselves up for success by habit stacking, focusing on one habit at a time, prepping for success and flexing our flexibility. We close our time together remembering that efficient leaders are committed to curiosity and virtuous hobbies that refresh our energy and keep us focused.
