2. It’s inevitable, almost all of
us come across someone
that seems more
productive than we are.
We wonder how they
manage to accomplish
their daily goals, with time
left to spare.
3. These people are no
different from us. They
just know the secret
code that leads them to
a productive life. The
good news? The code is
not difficult to crack.
4. Here are some simple yet crucial
steps to help lead a more
productive life...
5. 1. REDUCE TASKS
The issue of managing
tasks is twofold:
● filtering
● prioritizing
6. 1. REDUCE TASKS
First comes filtering.
Don’t mention EVERYTHING on
your to-do list.
Think realistically.
Ask yourself, am I really going to
get ALL of these done today?
The answer will be
“probably not.”
7. 1. REDUCE TASKS
Then comes prioritizing.
Arrange the tasks after your filter
from most important to least.
This way, even if you are not able
to tick off every last item, you
will have at least completed
the most important tasks
of the day.
8. 2. AVOID MULTITASKING
Simultaneously performing
multiple tasks kills focus and you
end up completing none of
them.
It not only hurts productivity, it
results in poorer work quality
compared to that colleague of
yours who is doing one thing at a
time.
...because it is sincerely very difficult to be as smart as a woman.
9. 2. AVOID MULTITASKING
If you want to feel
proud of your work,
invest ample time in
it, stay focused.
… note that even if you are a woman, avoid multitasking sometimes.
10. 3. UNPLUG YOURSELF
Unplug. Disconnect. Detach.
Resist yourself from checking your
phone or emails or social media
notifications every other minute.
These are distractions, nothing
more.. Assign time for these
activities and limit your exposure
to them only in their allotted time.
11. 3. UNPLUG YOURSELF
Unplugging gives a sense of
peace and tranquility when
everyone is hustling around you.
As the Dalai Lama said, “The
mind is like a parachute. It
works best when it’s open.” So
open your mind, withstand the
distractions, and try to focus on
the topic at hand.
12. 4. ORGANIZE YOUR WORK DESK
Studies show that people who
organize their workstations feel
more productive and focused
as compared to those who keep
their desks messy.
Organize it, arrange things,
maybe put up some motivational
quotes, and keep your desk
clean.
13. 5. BE PUNCTUAL
Being punctual is an important
practice to follow. Punctuality
keeps you organized, giving you
enough time to sort through your
tasks before getting into the hustle.
You feel calm, a sense of order in
your assignments. Punctuality
reflects professionalism, and is
always appreciated.
14. 6. PRE - PLAN
Just prior to wrapping up for
the day, set aside five minutes
to plan for tomorrow.
Schedule meetings, assign
work, allot time for each task.
You will be prepared to attack
the next day and conquer that
to-do list of yours.
15. 7. CUT SHORT YOUR MEETINGS
Meetings eat up a lot of time that
could have been utilized doing
something productive.
Understanding the goal and
agenda of the meeting ahead of
time saves time, time better spent
working to accomplish the
objectives of your short meeting.
16. Not only will it improve
your productivity, but the
hustle that comes along
with short and crisp
meetings will motivate
you to reach your targets.
7. CUT SHORT YOUR MEETINGS
17. 8. PAY ATTENTION TO YOUR HEALTH
A healthy person is a more
productive one. Be it
mental, physical or
emotional, a person’s
health is the strongest
weapon against low
energy, procrastination
and poor productivity.
18. 8. PAY ATTENTION TO YOUR HEALTH
Take breaks in between
your work projects and
give your mind a rest.
Go outside and get some
fresh air.
And as the saying goes,
“you are what you eat”,
eat right and healthy.
19. 8. PAY ATTENTION TO YOUR HEALTH
Meditation can help
you feel productive. A
tired and weary mind
makes you lazy and
lethargic, not a recipe
for good work.
20. 9. KNOW YOUR WORK HOURS
There are some who start
right on 6 AM, some at noon,
and some at midnight.
Knowing when you are most
energetic is crucial. Kick start
your day when you feel most
productive and get more stuff
done.
21. 10. UNWIND
Working on weekends
does not make you
productive, it makes you
tired for the coming week.
We call them weekends
for a reason. Take
advantage of these days
and unwind.
22. 10. UNWIND
Relax, spend time with your family,
read, whatever helps you to de-
stress, just do it. Working
continuously can severely damage
one’s health, both physically and
mentally.
23. 10. UNWIND
A good break will help you feel
rejuvenated, refreshed, and
ready for the upcoming week.
24. Everyone is different. You know when you are most
productive, embrace that time and plan your day and week
accordingly. When you are working, remember these tips and
more productive. Get more work done in fewer hours. Aim to
create a productive life cycle for yourself and your teammates.
Productivity is a big step towards success and triumph.
