Ever wonder why you’re exhausted at 5 PM even though you barely ticked off your to-do list? There’s a reason: your day is constantly interrupted by meetings, emails, and pings. Yep, Microsoft’s latest report found the average employee faces about 275 interruptions daily (that’s one every 120 seconds!).
To reclaim your productivity, experts suggest scheduling “deep focus” sessions on your calendar (and protecting them like vital meetings), and even taking scheduled walks or breaks. So, maybe next time you’re interrupted mid-task, just remind yourself: it’s not you, it’s your inbox.
