Habit 19: Batch Your Tasks

Task batching is mono-tasking taken to the next level. It helps you use your time more efficiently by ‘batching’ similar tasks together and doing them all at once, rather than dealing with them sporadically.

By dedicating a specific block of time to a specific type of task – for example, writing blog posts or replying to emails – you are able to work in a more focused and efficient way, minimize distractions and produce better quality work.

We ‘batch’ tasks in our daily lives all the time – for example, no-one bakes 12 cupcakes one cupcake at a time, or washes their laundry one item at a time – and the same time-saving principles of batching similar tasks together can also be applied to blogging.

Benefits of Task Batching

• Work in a more focused and efficient way.
• Minimize distractions.
• Produce better quality work.
