Before you scroll, ask yourself, were you as productive as you could have been today? 👀
Productivity can seem extra difficult in an age where notifications bombard our phones every few minutes, we have days worth of information at our finger tips, and simply, we like to stay connected and be entertained!
If you’re struggling with productivity try out these tips:
🩵 According get outside as soon as you wake up. Don’t look at your phone, skip the coffee. Get your jacket on and head for a 10-20 minute walk. This will help to regulate your circadian rhythm, improve cognitive function, and improve your energy throughout the day.
🩵 Create a to-do list! Brain dump everything on your mind that you need to get done. Once it’s all written down (on paper or in your phone), you can then prioritize the tasks based on this hour, this day, this week, and so on.
🩵 With the above tip, use time-blocking so you have specific time slots for each task. You can then also get specific as this psychologically helps you get tasks done quicker. Rather than saying “I want to work out today”, get specific and say “I’m going to workout this evening around 7:30 for at least 45 minutes.”
🩵 Turn on DND on your phone. If you use it for work you can customize the DND function to allow notifications from certain people and apps, allow those and mute the rest. You’d be surprised how much of a difference this makes.
