Ask HN: How to use small chunks of time productively
We all know about Flow and how long of uninterrupted periods one needs to get into it. I am wondering about how to take advantage of the opposite of those long periods.
Due to many different unforeseen circumstances, I can't get more than about 20-30 uninterrupted minutes at a time throughout the day from 7am-8PM. I am sure I am not alone in this.
All of the tricks of the trade (email once a day, phone off during set periods, scheduled alone time etc...) are not possible for the foreseeable future. I am wondering if anyone has any good ideas for how to be productive in those short windows. Assume that standard work/sleep hours are enforced and that the job is as a Product Manager.
