The 3 times you’re most productive

Anyone who’s worked from home can tell you that it’s not always perfect. To view this email as a web page, [click here]() {NAME}, Anyone who’s worked from home can tell you that it’s not always perfect. Your home life and work life can bleed together in unhealthy ways. [Meme] Check out my new Netflix show “How to Get Rich” [now]()! It takes discipline to work when nobody is standing over your shoulder and directing you. Distractions grab you from every direction. The La-Z-Boy recliner you thought would be awesome to type your weekly reports from becomes a sinkhole for your productivity. And once word gets out that you’re home all the time, friends and family start to ask if you could do them “a favor in the middle of the day.” It takes some time getting used to working from home. Millions of people found this out over the last couple of years. Microsoft researchers recently discovered something interesting. Traditionally, office work productivity peaks right before and right after lunch — a double peak. But with more and more people working from home, they’ve discovered a third peak … at 10 p.m. [Chart] The “triple peak” of productivity. (Source: [Microsoft]()) Microsoft calls this a “[Triple Peak Day]().” For some of you, a triple peak workday sounds perfect. You can sleep in, work from 10–2, be with your family after school through bedtime, and then work again when the house is quiet again. For others, that sounds like a living hell. Work life and personal life bleed together and overlap so that you never know what you’re currently working on. It feels like you’re constantly working … but also never working because you’re reading the news, texting friends, doing the laundry, etc. My [Career Seasons]() concept can help you understand why a triple peak does or does not appeal to you. Career Seasons help you focus on the kind of job you want at a specific time in your life. - Growth: When we prioritize learning and earning more — and we’re willing to put in the time - Lifestyle: When we want to prioritize our time outside work, such as taking care of family - Reinvention: When we want to completely reinvent ourselves, including the role and even industry we work in The appeal of a triple peak workday can depend on your Career Season. If you’re in the Growth Season, it might allow you to work at the times of day when you’re at the top of your game, so you can always be doing your best work. If you’re in the Lifestyle Season, you might love the flexibility that a triple peak workday provides. Or you might want to have a clear distinction between work time and personal time. If you’re in the Reinvention Season, you might value working a regular 9–5 and getting in-person one-on-one time to help you transition between jobs. Three things about Career Seasons: - No Career Season is better than the others. - We naturally move in and out of Career Seasons. - Even if you feel like you could be in multiple Seasons, you need to pick ONE as your focus. The same is true of the triple peak day. - Neither a double peak nor a triple peak day is better than the other. - At different times in our lives, we’ll benefit from working 9–5 or shifting between work and personal time throughout the day. - You have to pick one. If you’re going to shift between focuses, great! If you’re going to focus on one for part of the day, then completely shift to the other, great! Just know which one you’re doing. The key to using your career to design your Rich Life remains the same: You have to be intentional. How to intentionally transform your entire career Sometimes people realize that what they’re currently doing is not right for them and they need to change now. The successful ones get intentional about it and DO SOMETHING. Years ago, my friend Julie was in this exact spot. She’d already spent a year in law school before realizing that law wasn’t actually the right fit for her. She dropped out and felt lost and embarrassed. Julie came to me and asked for help. I told her I’d help her find a Dream Job — but she had to follow my system to the letter. I personally helped Julie use the Dream Job System. I showed her that she actually had more skills than she realized. I taught her how to create a network of people to help her, how to interview, how to “frame” her experience on a resume. Using my lessons, Julie landed a terrific job at a top-tier company in finance. Then, a couple years later, she switched to tech. And you’ll hear what she does now... ...in this in-depth case study. Today I want to show you how Julie used the techniques in Find Your Dream Job to intentionally reinvent herself — not just once, but multiple times over the course of her career — and tripled her salary in the process. Watch this case study. I always say, study the winners. In this video, you’ll learn how a top performer thinks and behaves.
