The Sound of Silence: It's More Important Than Ever to Turn Off Notifications

It used to be that you only had to worry about email notifications: popping up, binging.  And, that was annoying enough.  Now, lawyers are getting notifications from everywhere: case management softwares, CRMs, Slack channels, chat feeds, Zoom chat, etc.  It’s enough to make you want to pull your hair out. 

 

And, though the game may have changed, as these applications have expanded – the good news is that the solution remains the same.  And, that is: to turn off all your notifications!  Don’t let them ping, don’t let them pop.  In every software you use, you have power over the notification settings.  You just need to access those, and make the changes you require. 

 

The crux of any time management program centers on the ability to retain focus by refusing to try to multitask, and to limit distractions.  If you can eliminate notifications, so that you can review those messages and prompts, on your own time, your efficiency will crash through the roof.
