Here’s a crazy productivity hack for you:
When you are working, listen to music that you used to play video games to as a kid.
You will automatically be immersed in the work to the nth degree. For me, this is a few select video games such as Halo, Age of Empires, and Runescape soundtracks.
I have boosted my focus ten fold by simply listening while doing work.
Here’s the playlist:
Age of Empires 2:
Halo: Combat Evolved:
This soundtrack in particular backed many hundreds of hours of grinding - therefore it goes without saying that I have an affinity to focus while listening
Runescape:
I’m not the only one espousing this:
Pick music that has no lyrics, has pace, and that doesn’t distract from the task at hand.
See what happens…
