Humans spend nearly half of their time thinking about tasks aside from the one ahead of them. This alone decreases our productivity and creative capabilities. Because of this, experts are honing in on the reasoning behind these distractions and how we can combat them in the workplace. Task switching, procrastination, and time-consuming and complex work are at the root of why our thoughts go unfinished. These pitfalls can be costly, leading to hours of the workday feeling lost and unproductive. In fact, studies show that distractions can cost up to over 2 hours per workday, equating to more than 26% of an 8-hour workday.
When we don’t capture our thoughts, productivity is the first to go. Goals do not get accomplished, fulfillment is low, and important tasks take longer to complete. Despite this, there are many products and services that are working to combat these issues. With accessibility and efficiency at the forefront of these efforts, the future is bright for workplace productivity. Learn more about how AI content creator tools can amp up productivity below:
