DOWNLOAD EBOOKIf you're struggling to be productive while working from home, you aren't alone. The recent Coronavirus pandemic has forced millions of people to work from home for an extended period of time, and many people are finding the transition extremely difficult. Many people are reporting problems with morale, motivation, and productivity. Unfortunately, with working from home becoming the new norm, many are worried that their productivity problems, and the low morale that accompanies them, will continue for the foreseeable future.Jonathan Locke was faced with declining productivity and motivation, causing a spiral of guilt and stress that further worsened the situation. His productivity declined so far that he realised he had no choice but to take responsibility and fix it. In so doing, he developed the theory of Task Inertia, which is the mental resistance that we feel to doing work, brought about by ingrained working habits and ways of thinking.In Overcoming Task Inertia, Jonathan Locke explains what task inertia is, and how the theory explains what is happening in your mind when you struggle to work despite wanting to be productive. He offers a powerful program to reclaim your productivity by changing how you think about work, setting realistic goals and creating lasting habits. If you are struggling to be productive while working from home and don't know why, this book will help you understand why, and offer a targeted plan that will lead to a lasting improvement.
