Check out these numbers. On average, people spend 2 hours per day looking for files they swear they just saw inside their drives. Teachers spend between 5 to 7 hours per week on lesson planning, and most people spend up to 13 hours per week managing their inboxes. How can we be more effective?
More Effective & Less Stressful
When I saw these numbers, I knew I had to invite my friend Lisa McHargue to share with us actionable strategies to make our teacher lives more effective and less stressful by getting control of our Google Drive (or your equivalent), our inboxes, and becoming more effective while doing lesson planning. Click above to hear episode 14 of Growing with Proficiency, The Podcast.
This is the perfect end-of-the-year episode. I promise that after this episode, you will be able to have a fresh start next year. Let’s not wait one more second, click play.
Do you have tips you’d like to share on how you stay effective and organized? Tell me in the comments.
Lisa McHargue
Lisa McHargue is a former high school Spanish teacher turned digital organizer. Since 2020, she’s been helping people take control of their digital chaos and create systems to keep the file chaos away so they can focus their time on doing what they love instead of swearing at Google Drive. When she’s not geeking out about digital organization or minimalism, she’s probably binge-reading or pretending to be a contestant on The Great British Baking Show.
