So let's start!

1) Before You Start!

Before starting please give in mind that lack of productivity is not a major issue it can be controlled by applying a few tweaks and changes in our lifestyles and by making our work more organized.

Basically, when we talk about productivity we talk about covering our task in less than the desired time and that is not much difficult the only thing you need is to read this post fully and apply these tips in your lifestyle.

Step 3) Plan your day in advance

Planning your day in advance is always the best choice because before starting the day we have a blueprint of our full-day tasks,

It is always the best choice that you will make your to-do list for your next day at night before going to bed.

During making the to-do list you have to align your task priority wise means at the top you are the task with the highest priority at the middle the task with the medium priority and at the bottom the task with the lowest priority so so you can complete your higher priority task before your non-important tasks.

Step 4) Follow the 5-second rule

The 5-second rule is an amazing rule that helps us to increase power continuity and productivity, this rule book helps us when we are facing difficulties during switching our work.

According to this rule when we are doing an interesting but not important task like checking chats on Facebook, talking with friends, etc. It is very important for us to switch from this task to a productive one like completing our assignments, in this kind of situation this rule says that you have to count for 5 seconds and immediately switch the task.

I know it sounds weird but I personally tried it and it works for more information you can read the book 5-second rule by Mel Robbins.

Step 4) Follow the Pomodoro Method

The Pomodoro Method is one of the greatest technique ever to stay focused and more productive developed by Francesco Cirillo in the late 1980s, it was a time interval based method in which the task that you want to commit in a focused manner is done in the interval of 25 minutes without any break due to that full focus is set on the committing work and it cause an increase in our productivity and efficiency and after the competition of these 25 minutes there will be a break of 5 minutes is taken for giving time to the subconscious mind to process the previously consumed information.

This method leads to a great boost in productivity but, there are some important points that are important to understand before using this method like -

• All necessary material should be gathered before starting this method.
• During the Focusing period, all the focused should be on the committed task.
• Never try to skip break it can cause stress on the mind.
• You can always take intervals according to your preferences i.e, 45-15

Conclusion

At last, we see that increasing productivity is not a big deal it totally depends on your efforts on your hard work, you can do anything if you have a strong will and desire.
