Here's a meme in a tweet that you might be able to relate to when it comes to how your day progresses and what does/doesn't get done:
Not sure where the meme originated but the account that tweeted it last year is a relatively small account. Nonetheless, the idea seemed to resonate with a lot of people.
One person responds by saying, "I be having to psych myself up to mentally prepare" and another says, "Can't do anything till after the call."
I definitely can relate to that latter comment. It's weird when you have some kind of call scheduled (whether phone or video) and the rest of your day doesn't feel like it makes much progress until after the call.
Does that mean all calls should be scheduled first thing in the day? Seems like that too has its drawbacks. There's probably no perfect solution other than to change our mindset and do our best not to view the call as something that will hinder our day's progress.
