During my commute, I often listen to interesting audiobooks or plan out my day. What about you? Any favorite ways to make the most of that times?

Whenever I have a few spare minutes, I like to engage in the ancient art of procrastination! ๐
Just kidding (mostly).
Actually, I try to tackle my ever-growing list of podcasts.
Have a plan for what you want to do! Generally, you can't really focus on deep thoughts for a burst of time, but you can maybe focus on a part of a problem.
I love using those small pockets of time to catch up on podcasts or audiobooks. Theyโre great for learning something new or just relaxing!
I use my commute to listen to industry podcasts or audiobooks. Itโs a great way to stay informed.
While waiting in line, I catch up on emails or read articles Iโve saved. Efficient use of time.
I use spare moments to review notes or catch up on industry news. Simple yet effective.
I like using Todoist to capture quick tasks or ideas whenever I have a few free minutes. It syncs across all my devices so I can jot things down whether I'm at my computer, on my phone, or using my smartwatch. Reviewing my task list also helps me feel productive even if I only have a short break. Another go-to is clearing out and organizing my email inbox to reach that elusive Inbox Zero!
I would say rest or take your mind off work
I often use those small windows of time to catch up on email or knock out a few quick tasks on my to-do list. Podcasts are great too for some educational multitasking. And if all else fails, a short meditation or stretch break helps recharge the batteries! ๐งโ๐ช
