How much do you get done when you’re multi-tasking?
In this episode of Habits and Hustle, I chat with Ozan Varol about the importance of staying focused on only one thing at a time to maximize productivity, how to stop overthinking, and why we need to learn how to quit.
He also shares the importance of taking some time to do nothing, such as staring out a window. Oftentimes, sitting with your thoughts is more productive than answering emails.
Ozan Varol is a rocket scientist turned award-winning professor, #1 bestselling author, and internationally acclaimed speaker. He is one of the world’s foremost experts in creativity, innovation, and critical thinking. He helps industry-leading organizations reimagine the status quo with moonshot thinking.
What we discuss:
02:03: What does it mean to escape conformity?
04:10: Why should we unlearn the habits we have picked up?
08:44: Why should you stop multi-tasking?
11:43: What’s the tinfoil-wrapped chocolate theory?

25:21: Where can you find the courage to quit?
28:51: Why are you still doing things the same way?

39:01: What about Ozan doesn’t fit into the bucket of being a rocket scientist?
