Turn Big Projects Into Many Small Ones
Looking at a big project is overwhelming, the thought of all the time you'd need to dedicate can produce a sense of dread. Try setting it into smaller little projects, you’d feel more productive and whenever you complete said small project the feeling of accomplishment would increase productivity.
Take regular breaks
Taking breaks may sound like it would waste time however, taking small regular breaks can actually help improve productivity and concentration. Working for a long period of time without taking a break leads you on a steady decline in productivity and performance. Go on a 3 minute walk every 30 minutes and you'll watch your performance boost!
Implement The “ two minute rule “
Introduced by David Allen, an American productivity consultant, the “ two minute rule “ states that if a task would take less than 2 minutes to complete it should be completed the second you are aware of it. The “ two minute rule ” increases productivity as it takes less time to finish the task right away than it would take to get back to it and remember it.
At the end of the day remember, not every day will be an amazingly productive day, try your best and that's all that matters! Don't be too hard on yourself, simply try your best.
