how to be more productive

Some people are God gifted they have a sharp mind, wonderful memory and jaw dropping creativity. Everyone is not productive and creative. Some people are genius but they need some special guide lines to become creative and more productive. Now we will define that what is productivity? “Productivity is about making smart choices with your energy, focus and time in order to maximize your potential and achieve beneficial results.” Mohammad  Faris

Now I will tell you that how to be a productive person? Let’s start!

1. Choose your energy hours

Everyone has a specific time during a day when he is more active and energetic. When his energy level is higher than usual. When your energy level is higher this is a real time to take an advantage from your energy. Don’t waste this chance. Take your energy and do your majority of work in this time. Usually morning time is suitable for deep thinking. If feel difficulty in finding your energy hours, then work in different hours in the day. Deeply see which time allows you to work best, this is your energy hour when you are more productive and active.

2. Maintain your routines

After a serious struggle, once you have found your energy hours now it is time to show consistency on that time. Work daily on the same time which is your energy hour. Make schedule of your daily routines. For example

When do you go to school?

When do you like to study?

When do you take rest?

Do you relax for some time after coming back from your school, college or university?

Do you make tidy your room on Sunday?

When you watch TV shows or any other video?

Establish a schedule for each activity, this will help to manage your time for creative work. After this you are less likely to get side tracked. You will become much more likely to maximize your productivity.

3. Make to-do lists

Yes, it’s a good idea to write lists of activities that you have to do, which are more important than others. For example, writing your home work is more important than watching wrestling. So always do your important task first and make a list of these tasks that you have completed.

Don’t try to do a task for which you haven’t managed your time. So instead of relying on your to-do list add the task to your list for future. When you are easy to complete this task then do it. And put it into your weekly or daily schedule. This will ensure the task must be completed.

4. Avoid from multi-task

No one can perform multi tasks at a time at once. Although you are able to complete this task but concentrate on important task that you have to do according to your schedule first. Don’t do so but focus on a single task at a time. When you are putting your full attention on a single task you are more likely able to do it fast and accurately at high standard. This will give you a spiritual peace which you can feel only.

5. Complete similar tasks in single attempt

For example, if you are studying a topic and you have to write that topic in your note book. These two tasks of learning and writing are much similar. So instead of performing these two tasks in different time, complete them together. This will save your time and you are more likely to get engaged with your study.

On Sunday create some flash cards for biology, chemistry or physics topics, then revise these topics and then do some past papers of your topic. This will ensure your mind is concentrated on single thing and not constantly switching gears. Always get your cores together and study only one subject at a time. Send your emails and messages one time in a day. In end I will advise you, don’t interrupt your tasks with un related task.

6. Do easy and quick tasks first

If you have to visit a doctor, then do it first because health is necessary to complete each task. If you are sick, then you can never perform a single task correctly. Doing easy and less time taking tasks first is a right way. It will leave you with ample time to tackle more and more challenging one’s you have got up ahead. It will also provide a peace to your mind that you have done something creative today.

7. Take regular breaks

Rest is necessary for your mental health. You are a human not a machine. So take regular breaks during your work. Productivity is not a continuous work like a donkey. Always keep in mind that “Being productive is about knowing when to work hard, when to take rest and when to have a fun and when to be a serious person. It’s all about making smart choices.”

8. Priorities about your projects

For example, you want to go a city by a train and train take 2 hours while a bus takes one and half hour. So it is a time to change your priority travel through bus it will save your time. Make sure that how you can save your time by making important priorities. Make sure always that you have spent your time in productive mode. This will give you a lot of benefit. It will bring you closer to your goals.

9. Self-accountability

Make some strict promises to yourself and write them in your dairy. Try to fulfill these promises strictly at least for one month after this it will become your habit. At the end of week make report of your tasks and promises and give it to your guide like teacher or parents. This will lead you to a right and productive way.

10. Review your progress

  At the end of the day, evaluate you progress and find your mistakes and promise yourself to remove bugs. What you have accomplished today? What did you do well today? What did you not complete today? How could you improve yourself? When will you complete your remaining tasks?

After asking yourself these questions and being an honest person to yourself will help you to see when you are going right and when you are going false. I hope this will be a helpful article. Stay blessed!
