Getting Started with Booost your day
What is Booost your day?
Booost your day provides support in prioritising your tasks and your wellbeing in a balanced way. You can look at the events you have to attend and see gaps in your schedule. In these gaps you can choose to spend 30 minutes to either:
Focus on Tasks
- When focussing on tasks, you can click on the event in the ‘Calendar’ view, and Booost will show you a list of your tasks in order of due date and priority. This can help with deciding a task to tackle next, and with time management by breaking your schedule into blocks.
- Need some help? Related resources at the bottom of the Focus on Tasks events suggest strategies to support you to get started with your Tasks.
Focus on Wellbeing
- When focussing on wellbeing, you can click on the event in the ‘Calendar’ view, and Booost will suggest checklist items to support you in taking time to look after yourself.
- Need some help? Related resources at the bottom of the Focus on Wellbeing events suggest strategies like our Take a Minute video series and other resources to help you improve your wellbeing.
Most Productive times
When using Booost your day, setting ‘Most productive times’ can help you plan when to Focus on Tasks. You can set up your Most productive times in the ‘Account’ view, we recommend you add:
- Approximately three slots throughout the day
- Each slot to last 60 to 90 minutes
- At times which suit you
Consider if you work best in the morning or evening or around other events in your calendar, and choose a time that is best for you.
