Make Playlists for Specifics
Make Playlists for Specifics
When you plan to make music a more integrated part of your life, help yourself out and make playlists for frequent occasions you’d want the music a part of; for instance, if you have songs for lounging, or working out, or waking up. The more you use the playlists, the more your brain will associate tasks with music.
Like the Music
When you find songs to add to the playlists, make sure it’s music you actually would like to listen to during that activity. Yes, you, as a professional, are being asked to really dig those beats. Research has shown positive trends between increased cognitive function and listening to enjoyable music. Listening to likeable tunes results in a specific brain connectivity pattern useful for memory purposes.
Set The Mood
Pick a volume where the music helps, as white or background noise, rather than distracts you. Get your space ready for you to get things done. Get a water bottle, some snacks, or whatever you need to get in your business zone.
Music works for some, and not for others. Dharma Home Suites suggests you try it out for yourself. Good luck!
