Boosting Productivity and Focus in your Work
In the quest for enhanced productivity and focus, one such method gaining recognition is body doubling. Rooted in psychology and behavioural science, this technique holds the potential to revolutionise the way people approach work.
In this post, I will focus on how body doubling can work for you, to increase your focus, concentration, accountability and ultimately productivity.
Understanding Body Doubling
Body doubling is a strategy that works for many people with ADHD. The body double provides support and help to focus on the task without actually completing the task themselves.
This strategy works to keep you motivated and focused on your intention to minimise distractions and procrastination.
Coping Strategy
Although body doubling is frequently promoted as an ADHD coping strategy, it is effective for anyone struggling to complete a task and helps to reduce stress or anxiety. The presence of a body double helps to avoid procrastination.
Working from Home
If you are a lone worker working from home, body doubling can also provide you with connection and a chance to network. Body doubling can increase a sense of community and accountability. It can also provide the opportunity to meet people from different walks of life and from different parts of the world.
