๐ 5 PRODUCTIVITY TIPS
Being productive is trendy. Of course, it's not possible to jump over my head and sometimes I just reschedule my plans and there are some to-dos that are hanging for days until I finally finish them. But here are 5 of my tips to stay on top of your own goals:
โ
๐ In the morning, I make a comprehensive to-do list for the day. I do it by hand (only!) in my notebook because it's much more effective than using any app for me. Every single app that I've tried eventually failed miserably.
โ
๐ I remove all distractors from my desk. How often do you start working, but somehow end up on Twitter? So now I switch my phone to the silent mode or even put it away and start working.
โ
๐ In case of emergency, I use the Pomodoro technique - it breaks the workload into intervals of 25 mins, separated by short breaks. There are many apps that help you track the time like that. It really helps to stay focus, so highly recommended!
โ
๐ฏ I prepare my workspace: clean the desk, find necessary papers, put a glass of water nearby, and wear comfortable work clothes. Otherwise, the work is less fruitful and I get distracted every minute to go drink some water or get snacks.
โ
๐ด Of course, there are "lazy" days when I'm too tired and stressed to work hard. I usually change the nature of work that I do. For example, instead of sitting in front of the computer, I do household duties. I don't feel guilty about wasting time and get a clean flat as a bonus.
โ
These are my main productivity tips. I believe that you canโt become more productive overnight. But making small changes and adopting some of these habits, youโll be well on your way to becoming more efficient. Do you have any productivity secrets of yours?
