Passionately Wrong Podcast
We've all encountered people who are passionate about their views. Often, it seems they are just as passionately wrong. If we’re honest with ourselves, I think we’d all agree that sometimes we are among those passionately wrong people. How can we recognize when we’re wrong? And then what do we do? More importantly, how can a former Green Beret and a former S&P 500 General Counsel help? This is the Passionately Wrong Podcast, where we challenge your assumptions, offer different perspectives, and hopefully help you make better decisions. We'll discuss various topics from work, fitness, the military, and living overseas, but whatever we talk about, you can be sure that we will try and give a balanced view and not be passionately wrong.

How Can We Be Less Distracted in Our Work?
Key takeaway: Distractions come from within, so be tactical and thoughtful about how you schedule your day to get the most done in a way you’ll be happy about.
Topics covered in this video:
- Make the must-do list for the day (your priorities),
- Allow yourself to be distracted when you finish your priorities
- Do something on your priority list first before doing something off the list
- Create a productive environment, physically and electronically
- Turn off alert notifications when working
- Establish a ‘Battle Rhythm’
- Make a schedule to do your priority items; consider scheduling more time than you think you need
- Consider doing long tasks in pieces.
- Multitasking has been shown to be unproductive; consider focusing on shorter tasks until they are complete.
- Schedule breaks to prevent burnout.
- When you have to focus, let people around you know and address immediate concerns before you start.
- Consider ‘tricking yourself’ by making a list for the next day and completing some tasks before going to bed.
- Be willing to experiment with different ways to avoid distractions, and adapt to what works for you
- Consider taking short breaks every hour or so
