January's Spoonful of Strategy 🥄
Brigid Reale, Lynn Norris
A Tiny Taste of Tactical Genius
Hey Busy VO Pro,
You’ve heard the advice: If it takes less than 5 minutes, just do it now.
Sounds productive, right?
Not always.
Here’s the truth: Constantly stopping to do small tasks in the moment is a fast way to shatter your focus and spiral into task-switching mode.
🥄 This Month’s Spoonful:
Let’s rethink how and when you tackle quick tasks.
đź§ Your Strategy:
-
Batch your 5-minute tasks: Collect them in a note or task manager (like Todoist, Trello, or a sticky note on your desk).
-
Knock them out in a focused “quick task” block (try 15–20 mins daily).
-
Protect your deep work time - like auditions, editing, or sending marketing emails - by not interrupting it every time your inbox pings.
🎯 Small tasks aren’t the enemy - context switching is.
đź«™ Why It Works:
You stay in flow longer, make fewer mistakes, and protect your creative brainpower.
✨ Coming Next Month:
For all of Q1, we’re digging into time management. Next month we'll focus on how to time block your way to a smoother, saner week.
Reclaim your time, protect your creative energy, and actually get stuff done (without the overwhelm).
