It's hard, but I have to learn to balance my productivity while staying engaged on #EndSARS. It's such a consuming energy.

Who else feels the same way? And what have you done to design your productivity? I'll share some things we're trying out below. #EndSWAT
1. We start by slowing down. We *try to* avoid getting on Twitter immediately we wake up. Instead, we outline the most important tasks we wish to get done. 1-3 tasks are ideal. We arrange them according to priority. Then start working on them. #EndSARS #DesigningProductivity
2. We plug times for these tasks into our calendar. Give reasonable time slots to get things done.

Then we set out chunks of time to #deepwork and get the first task done. Focus. One task at a time. Definitively finish one, take a break, then we move to the next. #EndSARS
3. We balance work and play by placing break times between our #deepwork sessions. This is known as the Pomodoro technique. For example, we work from 12 - 12:50, then take a break for 10 minutes. Then we resume work at 1pm.
@MohiniUfeli is a pomodoro champion, so she can share more on how she does it.
Another energy to look out for is our mental health. This is a period where we must be intentional about our mental health. This period requires energy.

Take breaks. Relax. Breathe. Slow down. Meditate. Journal. Be present. Garden. Go on a run. Hike. Go swimming. Go dancing.
