Get Happy and Boost Productivity
Let’s be real: sometimes, we get sidetracked and distracted and before we know it, it is time to clock out and head home and we have no idea where the day has gone. However, every day is a new day to try again, so check out these tips to boost your productivity so you can attack your day with your full potential.
• Embrace "Do Not Disturb” mode. We all know what it is like to be deep into an important project when our phones ring with a spam call or something else non-essential and then your focus is broken. Most smartphones have a Do Not Disturb feature, so consider using it while you are trying to focus. This is not to say you should necessarily leave it on all day, but while you are trying to complete something time sensitive and you cannot be interrupted? Absolutely!
• Say no to meetings that could be emails. Depending on your work environment, this is not always a viable option, but so many meetings do not need to be conducted in person or even on the phone because the information can be easily disseminated in an email. Additionally, with the increase of remote employees, it is more efficient to email because not only is valuable working time not being spent in meetings that can easily be sidetracked with small talk, but with an email there is also a written record of the important information so those involved can refer to it as needed.
• Prioritize, prioritize, prioritize! If your to do list is looking rather long, take a few minutes to re-order your list in terms of what is most important to complete first. Anything with an immediate deadline should hop up to the top, but if you are feeling overwhelmed, it can help to take care of a few short, easy tasks like firing off some emails. Seeing those checkmarks can help you prioritize the rest of your tasks and increase your motivation to finish your day strong.
• Take a break. This might sound counterintuitive, but if you are feeling stuck, sometimes a brief change of scenery can rejuvenate your brain.
