Timers. It’s the only „hack“ that actually works for me. Set a timer before doing something. Try to finish the task in the set time. When the timer runs out, stop doing the task. This sounds contradictory, but I think you get a lot more done when you limit the time you work on it.

Using keyboard shortcuts religiously – they save me hours every week! Also, batching similar tasks together keeps me in the zone and cuts down on distractions.

My go-to hack is using TextExpander to create shortcuts for commonly typed phrases, code snippets, email templates, etc. Saves me loads of time every day!

Using keyboard shortcuts saves me loads of time! Things like Ctrl+C/V for copy/paste, Ctrl+Z for undo, Ctrl+T for new browser tab, etc. Memorizing the shortcuts for your most used apps and actions can really speed up your workflow. Also a big fan of text expansion for frequently used phrases or code snippets.

Automating my daily standup update emails with a tool called Recaps.ai - it tracks what I work on each day, generates the summary for me, and sends it out every morning at 9am. Total game changer in terms of saving time on that repetitive task!
