6 Tricks To Increase Your Productivity

Increase Your Productivity: Prepare For Tomorrow Today

Take 10-15 minutes before the end of the day to plan for the next. Not only will you sleep better knowing it’s all in hand, you’ll have a much more productive start the next morning.

Don’t Get Too Much Sleep

Contrary to popular belief, having more sleep is not necessarily better for you. According to research, when your body is used to a certain amount of sleep, getting more can overthrow your body’s rhythm leaving you feeling lethargic.

Start With A ‘Power Pose’

Research has shown that changing your body language can change your mindset. According to Amy Cuddy, starting the day standing tall and confident (almost like a superman pose) for two minutes changes your body chemistry. Testosterone increases significantly, cortisol drops – and you experience more energy. What’s not to love? feeling lethargic.

Make Better Lists

Making lists means you can manage your time effectively. You won’t forget anything you need to get done – you’ve written it down. If you become inundated with paper, try the app Wunderlist available for both Android and Apple Devices, it’s worked a treat for us!

Stop Doing Stuff Everything Yourself

Delegating tasks to those who may be able to do the job quicker means you can free up your time to do the things you’re better at.

Eat A Frog Every Morning

Mark Twain said if you eat a live frog every morning, it’s likely to be the worst thing that’s going to happen that day. Your “frog” is that important task that you’ve been procrastinating about.

Once your frog’s eaten you can move on to more enjoyable jobs. Postponing it just means it’ll play on your mind and hinder your productivity.
