How to work more productively

Increase your efficiency will help small changes that you can make to the working schedule.

1 . Live in your calendar
Daniel Markowitz offers a way of planning that calls "live in your calendar." You will need to transfer all your tasks from the list to the calendar, estimate how long it will take to complete them, and make a plan for the day, week, month.

2 . Use the "two minute rule"
One of the reasons that lists of cases with the speed of light is growing up with new items is that we put many small tasks. Looking at the list, you try to squeeze out a maximum and cross out as many points as possible, but the only thing that you will get is to earn a nervous breakdown.

Popular blogger James Clear (James Clear) suggests using the "rule of two minutes". If you have a task that takes less than two minutes to complete, do not write it down, just do it. Over time, your lists will be shorter, and one day you will be able to do without them.

3 . Develop habits
When you start planning your life on the calendar, you may find that minor things like cleaning the house and shopping for food create chaos in your schedule. Priority tasks are lost among many secondary ones. To avoid this, it is necessary to develop habits. Go shopping on certain days, clean the mailbox at the end of the day, and do the cleaning on Saturday. So you accustom yourself to perform everyday tasks without having to put them on the daily routine.
