Working Well in the Age of Time Confetti

Do you ever stop working for the day, but find yourself looking at your inbox with one eye, while watching a TV show with the other? Perhaps even firing off a few replies? (And if not, maybe feeling a vague sense of dread or guilt for not having done so? And also kind of guilty for not paying attention to the TV show?)

Do you have a sense of your day’s priorities, then get derailed by a series of Slack messages or inbox notifications that aren’t all that important, but have piqued a feeling of urgency?

Congratulations, you have experienced “time confetti”. Ellie breaks down what this is, what to do about it, and how working hard and wellness must work together.
