How to be productive on the pot
Here's a slightly unusual productivity tip that I heard today but I'm definitely going to give it a try!
Next time you go to the bathroom - leave your phone behind.
Instead leave a book there to read. This should be a book which is either relevant to your business or something like a personal development book. You can also leave a notebook and pen there too.
Next time you go to do your business, instead of scrolling through social media, pick up your book and read something useful (and jot down some notes too)
Even if you only spend 5-10 minutes a day doing this it will significantly add up over time. It’s a simple strategy that enables you to spend time improving yourself learning a new skill or developing yourself.
It also doesn't need you to find any time in a busy day since it uses time that would usually be otherwise unproductive. (Yeah I can think of a few puns here too)
Hope you find that useful.

Second - I'm terrible at multitasking. Even though most of us should be on "auto-pilot" when we're in the rest room, I still need to focus!
I actually spend it intentionally thinking (on some idea or project) and if an idea comes, I quickly go and write it down - once I've finished taking care of business! 😁

Oh yeah, it's what I call any type of book or magazine as 'bathroom reading material'. As a kid, my sisters were always waiting to use rhe bathroom cuz I was in there reading...
Used to stash my book behind the tank and wall...lol.

Yes it's one thing to scroll through social media but making calls while performing is just asking for trouble

not having a phone its the only thing to do...
but is very interruptive as it just starts to get intersting in the book and there goes the call ' are you going to be long' ....
will need to finish that chapter later......
