Make Your Day a Productive Day with 5 Easy Steps

Time is not valuable, but how that time is utilized is more important. This is the reason that despite all the people having 24 hours, some people become very successful and some people get depressed due to work. You should know how to manage your time, then only that time is valuable to you.

So let's learn 5 practical methods to improve our Time-Management skill and make our day more productive.

1. Observe your time.

You can also call it- Productive during working time. Being productive means that you complete that work in less time with good results. And to do this, you have to make sure that you are not getting distracted while working. The best thing you can do for this is to observe your working time.
I mean to say that if you work for 6 hours, then at the end of every hour you should observe what work you have done in this hour. And if you find that in this hour you have done more unnecessary things then you can improve in the next hour. By doing this, now you will be more alert that in which works you are giving your involvement.

2. Wasting Much Time

Here is a part of what I have explained in the first step. The biggest reason behind not being able to use our time productively is that we do not know where our time is being used?
A research was done by Microsoft on their employees. And in research it was found that a normal American uses his smartphone for 1.7 hours out of his working hours. And once distracted, it takes 20 to 25 minutes to go back to the focused state. And this is the reason why it is almost impossible for an average man to achieve a FLOW STATE.

3. Make a Not-To-Do-List

You should make a Not-To-Do-List to avoid wasting your time. And after observing your day, the first thing you have to write in this list is the thing that wastes your time the most. And also you have to write the deadline for some of your work in this list.
Example- That you will not use social media before finishing your work. Today you will watch 10 minutes less on YouTube. While working, you will not pay attention to the notifications of the smart phone.
In this way you will make some deadlines for the things which distract you most.

4. Ritual to start your work

The most difficult thing to do any work is to start that work. The problem with many people is that they do not start their work, they just keep procrastinating. That's why you should make a ritual to start that task so that it will be easier for you to start that task. Once you start working, then gradually you start getting interest, due to which you keep engaged in the same work.
And keep in mind that this ritual should not be such that you have to start work at 8:00 and by mistake it is 8:05, then you are not doing that work.

5. Prioritize your work

This step is the important. Because by doing this you get to know what is your most important work?
And I have already said that the only reason for distraction is our habit to give priority to unnecessary things or things which entertain us. And if we learn to prioritize our work properly, then we will not be distracted and we will also know which work we have to do first and which work we have to leave?
