Know I like to challenge myself to be as productive as possible every day
No matter what, you're trying to accomplish in your day. It just feels good to get all those boxes checked off on your to-do list
Whether it's finishing chores up around the house or your must get done list for work
Or maybe there's a new hobby that you're working on
I want to show you my five best tips to get your stuff done and be as crazy productive as possible
You're not going to like this first one
But if you can manage it try to start your day early and get dressed as soon as you wake up
I know this isn't for everyone but it can be it's just going to be a little more difficult if you're not a morning person
but like any habit it takes about 30 days to form a habit and you
Can challenge yourself to do anything for 30 days if you really want that extra quiet time in the morning to get stuff done?
Give the early mornings a try
There are usually less distractions like your family might not be woken up yet
The roads are less congested. The stores aren't busy yet
The early mornings are just a great time to get stuff done
If you dive into your to-do list as soon as you wake up
And then you have a head start on your day
It just feels good to keep going cuz you're on a roll and it's just like you're running a marathon
You don't want to stop you might be tired at the end of the day
But if your aim is to be more productive and it's worth it
If you have a to-do list
That's a good start
If you don't have somewhere to keep track of everything that you need to do and you're relying on your memory
Then you must have a way better memory than I do
Because personally I have to write everything down to make sure that I don't forget what needs to get done
But whether your to-do list is in your brain or on paper or on your phone
There is a way to strategize your to-do list to make it work better for you
Rather than just keeping a running list of things to do
Why don't you schedule out your week before it even starts having a plan of attack is better than just having a loose plan
Some people like handwriting their lists or using a planner
Others like to use their phone because it's always on hand
some people use a combination of both I
personally like to
Keep my personal list on my phone
and then any work specific items in a daily planner, I
Do this because when I'm working I'm usually at my desk where my paper planner is
and it's just easy to refer to it and
It's nice to be able to separate your work and your personal items into two separate buckets. So
After writing your list down for the week. You can then break up these items into segments
So what are you going to do this week? What are you going to do today? What are you going to do tomorrow?
And what about the first half of tomorrow?
Breaking down your list into smaller increments that's specific deadlines for yourself
If everything is just jumbled into a long list
It's more daunting to tackle it all and you have to reassess your priorities every day, which is a big waste of time
Streamlining and having a plan ahead of time will make every week every day and every hour go by more smoothly
Now don't think of this is trying to be too
Controlling or strict with your schedule and don't go crazy. If something doesn't get done in a specific increment of time
Just move it to a different time slot
the main goal is to give each item a feeling of importance by putting it on your schedule this
allows you to block your time out and not feel overwhelmed one day and then board another day if
You try your best to stick to the schedule. You should be able to complete all your tasks most of the time
Just try to not like get something stuck for more than a day or two if something does get stuck
The item can be looked at more closely and you can reassess whether the priority was set too high
Or maybe it's something that doesn't even need to get done this week
The app I use on my phone for my personal to-do list. It's called awesome note
I've been using it for years and what I like about it is that you can create so many different types of Lists
So I my books to read my places. I want to travel my things to buy my Christmas present ideas. My to-do list
Everything's in its own category. So my to-do list is not bogged down with anything other than the immediate tasks at hand
This planner from sugar paper and it's their signature style planner. It's really sturdy and I like that
I have the full calendar and then it breaks each week out with room on each day to break down your to-do list
Into those increments if you don't want to invest in a planner
I've created a free
Printable PDF for you that has an example of a to-do list that's set up to break down your time into a weekly schedule
you can print out four of these and give
this type of to-do list to try for months to see how it works for you and I'll leave that link in the
description box below
Not all tasks are created equal some might be quick some might take up a lot of time some might even be emotionally draining
I personally like to do my quick tasks first thing in the morning
These are the easiest and fastest things that you know
You're familiar with and you can get done without even thinking much about it
These types of tasks are great to do in the morning when you're still waking up or when you're getting used to that morning schedule
These quick tasks kind of warm up your brain and body so that when you're ready to get to those bigger projects
Then you're all primed and ready to go
Also knocking out those little things first thing in the morning
It gives you a sense of accomplishment and makes you much more eager to keep going
Once you get those out of the way
You won't have them clogging up the back of your mind
So you can focus on your bigger project or projects for the rest of the day
So when you're organizing your to-do list keep this in mind and make sure those quick items are at the beginning of your day
If you're really taking your productivity seriously, and you have to limit yourself on your worst distractions
I know for me and possibly for you too. Social media. Is that distraction?
There are ways to prevent letting this hinder your productivity
For example, you could use an app to monitor how much that you're using social media
I've tried the moment app, and I really liked it
The basic version is free and it tracks the number of hours that you spend on your phone and on specific apps
If you end up on your phone for too long, then an alert will pop up and it'll suggest that you take a break
It helps you to challenge yourself to take your attention away from your phone and on to something. That's way more productive
Another time management app that I recently found is called forest
It's a dollar ninety-nine and it encourages you to stay focused and present by planting a virtual tree that will grow
While you're doing yourself assigned tasks
If you leave the forest app during this designated time your tree will die and you'll feel like a mean tree killer
But if you keep working and you don't pick up your phone during that designated time
Then your tree will grow and you could just keep adding trees and deer forests and then you'll be all proud of yourself
It even has using nature sounds in the background
And this is an option that you can add while you're doing your task and it just creates a nice work environment
Another really cool thing about this app is that it gives you virtual coins that you can use and donate to trees of the future
And this is a company that actually plants real trees
I think this is just a great partnership and helping
The users stay focused and and helping a real and need in the environment
I'll leave the links to both of those in the description box below in case you want to check them out
this sort of
Gamification of limiting your distractions and managing your time is a great way to stay on track with those goals
But just knowing in particular what your main distractions are and having that awareness in the back of your mind
To not let it get in your way
That's the first step to being productive and feeling empowered to try to fight back against those distractions. No matter what they are. I
Have an app called home routines that I use to do my daily weekly and monthly home cleaning and chores
you're supposed to spend 15 minutes a day on a specific area and there's a built-in timer for when you're ready to start and
There's something about having that timer going that really helps me speed through my chores and I know it sounds silly
but I really look forward to the little song that they play at the end of the 15 minutes that
chime is like my reward for completing my house cleaning or my organizing or whatever I had going and
That other app I was telling you about the forest app
like just seeing my my trees grow and my forests grow really helps me feel accomplished because I know that I devoted a
specific amount of time to being productive and that
Feeling in it is a reward in itself
So when you get through your week, or maybe when you get through a huge task for the day
Make sure to have a reward set for yourself
Whether it's playing a your favorite song or tell yourself that you get a treat
Whatever makes you happy just somehow celebrate that you finished your day or your tasks with a bang
