You Will Lose 766.5 Hours (96 Work Days) This Year, Because Of This One Thing

Posted January 4, 2020

There are things that are “silent killers” in that they hurt us, yet go undetected;

Like losing 766.5 hours this year!

How is this possible?

According to BASEX, the average person loses 2.1 hours, each day, to interruptions!

When I share these numbers, I usually only include Monday-Friday, but then I thought;

“How about weekend interruptions to our recharge time?”

When you add these numbers up over the course of just one year;

You’re losing valuable business time and

Valuable recharge time.

Not all interruptions are bad and not all interruptions can be avoided, but;

They do kill your productivity, and;

They do take your focus off of sh*t that might be more important in that moment!

The big question becomes;

“What are you gonna do about it?”

Do you really need to stop what you’re doing and take that call vs a call back within the hour/few hours?

Same with emails.

Coworkers?

Alerts?

And I want to be crystal clear;

I’m not saying you should give everyone and everything the finger when you’re trying to do stuff;

I’m saying that it’s unreasonable (and highly unproductive) to allow 2.1 hours to be taken from us;
