Plan your day on a paper. Stick on the wall where you face and work.

@satyendra_sahani Yes. Despite all these apps, paper remains the most distraction free productivity tool.
Planning things. At least per week or per day. Doing it in the easiest way possible - todoist, trello, the simpler app is the better. When I started to plan procrastination just disappeared.
@mikhail_ivanenko Thanks for sharing! Planning in advance indeed leads to productivity.
Blocking my internet distractions: Netflix, Instagram, etc. I was always guilty of pulling up a second screen to internet surf.
@allison_mui Focusing on one task at a time is undoubtedly a huge productivity booster. Multi-tasking is a myth.
Time blocking is without a doubt my favorite productivity hack. On Mondays I plan what my priorities will be for each day, and the last thing I do each day is timeblock out the following day so I know how my day is going to go, and there are no surprises.
@mattcrail I agree that planning your day in advance makes you lot more productive. Thanks for sharing this!
Working on what I enjoy - Interest and enjoyment = a productive me
@maxwellcdavis That's such a simple hack. Yet a lot of people don't end of doing what they love. Thanks for sharing!
Well, social media management tools help me tbh! While I have so much on my plate to work on, auto-postings helps a lot.
@tahniat_alam With so many social media platforms to post on, auto-posting definitely takes a lot out of the plate and helps in focusing. Thanks for sharing!
Having enough sleep :D If I'm sleepy or exhausted, I can hardly focus on tasks
@daria_novikova14 Having a good sleep is one of the most under-rated productivity hack. Thanks for bringing this up here.
Having an inbox.
Not just for mails, but for everything. Found something interesting on twitter? A movie to watch? A mail to reply? An order to place? Send it to a singular inbox and batch process them, usually on the day/week end. Lets you put away distractions knowing you can come to it later.
@almost_designer That's an unconventional, but interesting productivity hack. Thanks for sharing!
Setting a single goal for each day.
@vaibhav_taneja Interesting. But there might be days where you would have multiple goals to achieve. How do you deal with that?
@pritam_nanda92
1. I Identify what is most important.
2. Look for Logical Overlaps
3. Manage my time well on each goal.
@vaibhav_taneja Great! Thanks for sharing your hack 🙂 🙌🏼
Prioritize, prioritize, prioritize. Trying to attack all your tasks at once will leave you feeling stressed out and you'll ultimately be less productive. Set out 5 or so realistic, high-importance tasks to do in a day and leave the the rest for tomorrow - you'll end the day feeling fulfilled and productive :)
@patricia_bsc_kairn I can see how passionate you are about being productive. Thanks for sharing your secret hack!
time blocking and leaving the house for some fresh air is so important for me
@kapatalas Thanks for sharing your hack. Taking frequent breaks is the life blood for creative professionals and I can relate to your POV.
