Tips for Being More Productive

Tips for Being More Productive

Often we find ourselves running out of time in the day to complete our long list of tasks. I hate to break it to you, but no matter how hard you try, there will always be 24 hours in a day. The solution to completing all of your tasks is to be more productive. To help you start your path towards productivity, I have comprised my top 5 tips for being more productive.

Fuel Your Mind and Body

The key to having the energy to be more productive is to fuel not only your mind but your body as well. Eating nutritious foods will prevent you from feeling groggy and wanting to sleep. Eating lots of fruits and vegetables that are nutrient rich will properly nourish your mind and body to ensure optimal productivity. 

Wake Up Earlier

My next tip is to wake up earlier. As cliché and obvious as this sounds, waking up earlier truly does increase your time for productivity. Although you can't add time to your day, you can however increase the amount of time you have for being productive. Instead of sleeping for an extra hour, try waking up an hour or two earlier to have more time to get your tasks done.  

Make a Checklist

The third tip I have is to simply make a checklist. Making a checklist helps you collectively organize the tasks that need to be completed into one uniform list. Checking a task off of your list ensures that you are making progress and moving toward the next task. If you are already a fan of making checklists and you find them quite daunting, try minimizing your list into mini tasks that are more obtainable.  

Plan Ahead

If you find yourself trying to cram everything into one day, try planning ahead. By planning ahead, you can evenly distribute your tasks throughout the week. Distributing your tasks throughout the week can prevent you from stressing out over the long list of tasks that you need to complete in a small amount of time. Although working ahead can be beneficial in the long run, if this becomes overbearing try prioritizing your tasks by the ones that need to be completed ASAP. Don't try to overwork yourself by cramming a weeks worth of work into one day. 

Make Time

My last and final tip is to make time. When I say make time,I mean making time for the things that are important to you. You can make time for the things you prioritize by doing things such as reducing the amount of time on your phone and substituting it for more study time. Essentially, you can evaluate the engagements that are taking up unnecessary time in your life and put more of that time towards being more productive.
