Launching an AI startup like BannsAi is exciting—but let’s be real, it’s also demanding. Staying productive isn’t optional; it’s survival. Over time, I’ve evolved my workflow into these 10 actionable strategies: 1. Prioritize Ruthlessly Every morning, I identify the top 3 tasks that will drive the most impact and focus on those first. Everything else can wait. 2. Automate Repetitive Tasks I’m a huge fan of automation. From scheduling social media posts to managing email workflows, I delegate anything repetitive to tools or AI. 3. Organize with Tools Like Notion My entire life lives on Notion. From task management to project timelines, having a single source of truth eliminates mental clutter. 4. Daily Non-Negotiable Focus Time Every day, I block off 2 hours for deep work—no distractions, no exceptions. This is when the real magic happens. 5. Short, Effective Meetings Only Meetings can drain productivity. If we need to sync, I ensure there’s a clear agenda, and the conversation ends with actionable next steps. 6. Templatize Everything Anything I’ve done twice gets turned into a template. Whether it’s email pitches or blog outlines, this saves hours every week. 7. Delegate Without Micromanaging If someone else can do a task 80% as well as I can, it’s theirs. Empowering my team not only frees up my time but also builds trust. 8. Weekly Mistake Reviews I don’t fear mistakes—I study them. Every week, I review what didn’t go as planned and tweak my processes to avoid repeat errors. 9. Take Real Breaks Burnout kills productivity. I step away from the screen regularly, whether it’s a walk, a workout, or just enjoying a coffee. 10. Celebrate Small Wins Progress fuels motivation. Every milestone—no matter how minor—is worth recognizing.

great insights! time-blocking works for me, I put notifications on DND and put my phone in another room, I noticed I spend way less time on the task this way.
