THERE CAN ONLY BE SO MANY HOURS IN A DAY.
Sometimes time goes by so fast, and you still have a
thousand and one things to accomplish.
You have work and a boss breathing down your neck while the
kids also want attention.
You have school, and a teacher wants one assignment handed
in yet you have exams to read for.
You can even have two jobs you are trying to juggle both of
them without slipping.
Those are the moments you feel like your head might explode
and time just keeps fading away.
What if I told you that there are some tips you can adapt to
make your life a bit easier and handle all those tasks better? It might not
make them easier, but you will end up doing more in the same time period.
These are the tips to live a more productive life.

To live a more productive life:
1. Prioritize.
In the evening before you go to bed or in the morning when
you wake up, make a list of all you have to achieve that day. Then prioritize
them in the order of importance and start with the most important one first. Or
you can prioritize them in the order of which one will take more time and start
with the complicated one first. Whatever suits you best just have an order of
doing them then crossing them off your list.
Trust me it is so satisfying to draw a line across a
particular goal you have achieved. If you are not into writing down your goals
on a paper, use apps to help you prioritize your duties.
I know in the evening you are tired and just want to crawl
into bed or you do not want to wake up ten minutes earlier to make a list. But
believe me, when you do not know your priorities you become more confused. You
start one task and leave it to jump on another, and at the end of the day, you
have achieved nothing and you are exhausted.
2. Set a particular
time to check your Email.
Ooh, I love emails. They always come with some goodies in
them, be it a response from a friend or an email from a colleague or even an
email alert from your favorite online store. What I realized is that at times I
spend hours chatting on my email and justify that as work because it is
official.
When you set a particular time to check your email, for
example only an hour after you wake up or an hour in the afternoon, you have
more time to get more done.
3. Clean up.
Maybe it is just me, but I cannot think properly in a messy
environment. I work from home, so when I wake up, I first clean up my whole
place, do the dishes and then I make breakfast before I sit down to work. A
clean environment just makes your brain work better and think clearer. So
wherever you have to work, clean up. If it is in the office, clean up your desk
this way it will not take you one hour to find one document. If you want to
read in the hostel, clean up. Do you ever ask yourself why libraries are so
clean and well organized? For more productivity.
4. Race with the
clock.
I used to be one of those people who puts off stuff until
the last minute. When I am given five hours, I will start working on the last
hour. That was until I realized that I was stressing myself out, doing a shoddy
job and giving myself a headache all with one task. If you are given a deadline
of five hours, try to get the same work done in three hours, set an internal
alarm that monitors how you are working. If you finish it earlier, you might
even get extra time to unwind and go over it to make sure you got it right.
That way you hand in excellent work, and you might even get that promotion
sooner than you think.
5. Despite
everything, I have said on making lists and doing more to achieve more,
remember to take good care of yourself. When you are tired, sleepy or hungry,
you will be slower and less focused. Get a good night sleep, have a social
life, workout, eat healthily and reward yourself for each job well done. Be
kind to yourself; you only get to live one life.
That is all we have for you today.
