How to use "Put the squeeze on" in context?
Are you squeezing the life out of your productivity? It's time to put the squeeze on! Here are four ways to improve your productivity by dialing back the pressure:
1. Slow Down
It's common to try to do too much at once, but this only leads to frustration and wasted time. Instead, break your tasks down into smaller, more manageable pieces.
2. Set Limits
If you're feeling overwhelmed, it's time to set some finite limits on how much you'll work each day. Determine what amount of effort you're capable of putting forth in a single sitting, and stick to that limit.
