Fidget: Hacking Your Productivity

Remember the fidget spinner craze? It might have seemed like just another fad, but some research has explored their potential benefits. A 2021 study on ADHD students found interesting results - but could this translate to the workplace?

Feeling antsy at work or irritable during stressful situations? Try this:

Grab a quiet fidget toy (spinner, cube, putty). Quick tip: just search "fidget toys" online

Use during:

• Complex tasks
• Long meetings
• Brainstorming sessions
• Stressful situations
  

Why it might work:

• Channels restless energy
• Keeps hands busy, which helps keep your mind focused
• Potential "replacement" for more disruptive habits
• Similar to how pacing while on the phone helps some people think - it's about finding your focus through movement
  

Give it a solid week, then assess if it's boosting your focus or just becoming another distraction. The goal is productivity!

More Info: At WellPro, we’re building an AI-native clinical platform purpose-built to scale the next era of care: personalized, preventative, and data-driven. Our thesis is simple but bold; the future of care delivery will be patient-centered, proactive, longitudinal, and closed-loop. That demands infrastructure that can ingest multi-modal health data, generate insight, drive action, and continuously optimize based on outcomes.

We believe Agentic AI is central to making this vision real. Not just chat interfaces or “co-pilots,” but deeply embedded, goal-driven AI agents that operate within the clinical system itself, helping surface insights at the point of care, automate routine tasks, and ensure closed-loop follow-through on interventions.
