![]() There have been people who have been able to suppress their auto immune disorders or avoid surgery because of this diet. But after more research, it turns out it’s one of the best elimination diets out there. We don’t feel the same type of slumps mid-morning and mid-afternoon that we previously felt.Ĭarnivore Diet / Keto Diet – We’ve heard of the carnivore diet before, but we always thought it was something that influencers did online to be cool. At this point, caffeine feels like a boost and not something our bodies are dependent on. Krista mixes decaf coffee with her caffeinated coffee and Davey drinks a mushroom coffee blend that is lower in caffeine. While we’ve added a little caffeine back to our days, the amount is significantly smaller. ![]() But the challenge of forty days really helped us to clear the caffeine from our systems and see the benefits. We felt sluggish and the headaches were real. Maybe they just had more energy to begin with, or their lives weren’t as hectic… or they were just lying. ![]() We had heard people say that getting off caffeine would give us more energy throughout the day, but we never believed them.

We’ve talked a bit about block scheduling before so if you want a few more tips, check out this post about creating a block schedule. If you want to take your block schedule to the next level, you can also schedule in time to answer email, work on specific content, etc. But any standing meetings are generally grouped into chunks on a few specific days. We do make exceptions for Discovery Calls because if someone wants to work with us, we don’t want to make them wait very long. Yes, it can be a little exhausting, but it saves us from constantly flipping back and forth between tasks. And within those days, we try to schedule our meetings back-to-back. If you were to take a look at our calendars, you would notice that nearly all of our meetings are grouped into two days of the week (Tuesday and Thursday). While we still use Clickup for Project Management, we use TeuxDeux for our individual tasks.īlock Scheduling – We’re big fans of block scheduling. Not only does TeuxDeux give you the satisfaction of crossing things off your list as you complete them, if you don’t get to a task, it automatically moves over to the next day. So if our schedule opens up and we have a little bit of extra time to work, we can pull those tasks up from the bottom to the day. We use these to help with bigger tasks that we want to get to but might not be working on at the moment. TeuxDeux even has spots at the bottom of the screen for extra lists. We use recurring tasks for everything from reminding us to water our plants on Saturdays to keeping up with our monthly accounting tasks on the first day of the month. Not only is it easy to glance at the app to see what you need to focus on for the day, the app also allows you to set recurring tasks. If you’ve ever heard about someone using a legal pad as a way to write down all of their ideas and things that need to be done, this is the digital version of that. TeuxDeux – We’ve been using this app for 10 years as a way to stay focused on daily tasks. You should always discuss any changes to your diet or exercise routine with your medical professional. Not only do the methods we’re about to discuss help us stay focused on summer days when the pool is calling our names, but they also help us avoid burnout.ĭ isclaimer: Although some of the tips mentioned in this episode/post include diet and exercise advice, we are not doctors or nutritionists. ![]() Thankfully, these days we’ve found a few other ways to stay organized, energized and focused throughout the day.
