Right, another productivity post 🙄 But wait!
No fancy nonsense needed here 😂 Just real talk from someone who actually gets stuff done 💪
Block Your Damn Phone 📵
For real. Your phone is destroying your productivity. Put it in another room, turn it off, whatever. Just get it away from you for a few hours. You’ll be fine, I promise 😅
Use Your Peak Hours 🚀
We all have that time when our brain actually works. For me it’s morning. Maybe for you it’s 2am 🦉 Whatever. Find YOUR time and protect it like your life depends on it.
Detox Your To-Do List 📝
Let’s be real – if you’ve been failing to complete 15 tasks daily for the past year, something’s gotta change 🤷♂️ Stop lying to yourself. Limit that to 3 important tasks per day. Trust me, you’ll actually get them done this time 💯
Use Pomodoro Technique 🍅
I’ve been using it for yers and it just works. You can look it up in detail but it’s quite simple. You use timer to work for 25 minutes, then have 5 minute break. Every now and again there is a longer break.
Try Analogue Tools ✏️
Yes, a simple pencil and a pocket (or larger) notepad. Get a quality mechanical pencil with soft 2B lead, or something like the Blackwing. Try one of the Field Notes or Muji pocket notebooks, or a Rhodia pad. No need to download the latest to-do list app—and definitely no subscription 😉
Work Life Balance 🎭
None of the above will help if you overwork yourself. Life is not about work. As much as I like running my business my own hapines, famly, hobbies will always come first. And the irony is this makes me the best in my busines. At the sime time those who sacrifice all that’s important for the sake of work/business are at best mediocre.
Don’t Multitask. Just don’t. 🔄
Multitasking doesn’t work. I wrote about it before. Check my blog on multitasking here. All you do is task switching and wasting your most precious resource – time. I wrote about that too – [here].
Create Brain Dump 🧠
Brain dump is a great tool you can create. It will free up a lot of RAM memory in your brain 🙂
I wrote a good post about it. Have a look at my Brain dump post here.
That’s it. No fancy systems. No nonsense. Just stuff that works.
Now stop reading and go do something productive 😉
