I have recently started listening to Matt Abrahams podcast Think Fast Talk Smart: The Podcast!

I love the variety of topics on communication that the podcast covers

The best part are the 3 parting questions to all his guests

One of them includes - what is your recipe for effective communication? 

And one thing that comes up in most answers is - clarity

Clarity in your communication is so key! 

What lack of clarity looks like:
→ Rambling explanations
→ Long answers with no takeaway
→ People asking, “So what’s your point?”

What clarity looks like: 
→ Use a simple structure (Point → Reason → Example → Action)
→ Lead with the headline before details
→ Practice summarising ideas in one sentence

So if you are looking at moving ahead in your career in 2026, executive clarity is what you need as a leader

#MondayMotivation Here's a simple yet very useful time management tip - all you need is a paper and a pen! 📝

One of the top things that distract us are other tasks that pop into our heads while we are working. 🤯

In the last minute and a half, I have thought of 2 work related and 2 personal tasks that I need to do. ⏰

Earlier, I'd jump out of the current task, switch tabs or pick up my phone to get some of that done since I've remembered it. 🤦‍♀️

But one simple thing can help steer clear of distractions but also get all those tasks done - Put a pen and a paper next to your laptop 👩‍💻

As soon as something pops in your head, jot it down. And get back to your task at hand. ✍️

Jot down every task that comes to mind - adding something to the grocery list or pay taxes (I have the latter on my list) ✍️

But don't give up on what you are doing at the moment ✅

If I didn't do this, I don't think I'd complete this post after 4 distractive thoughts about work and chores. 🤯

This is highly useful at all times - and especially when you are following the Pomodoro timer - it makes no sense to set 25-minute timers and then jump from task to task

What is your top tip to stay focussed?
