Have you ever wondered why some people seem to get through their to-do lists so easily while you’re having trouble keeping up?
Everyone has experienced days when they are busy from dawn until dusk but feel as though they haven’t accomplished anything. It’s annoying and, to be honest, a little draining.
Being productive does not mean you have to do more work. It involves completing the necessary tasks without becoming exhausted. Efficiency is more about intention than how quickly you get things done. It’s about knowing what should be prioritised, where to make things simpler, and when to stop doing things the hard way.
Here are some tips for starting to do less and get more done:
Insights For Professionals suggest that you start your day with a well-defined plan and attainable objectives to optimise time efficiency. Organise your time by dividing it into discrete periods for particular tasks. Organise your days so that you can concentrate on a single aspect of your job at a time and maintain mental focus throughout the day.
The source mentioned above also emphasises putting related and overlapping tasks together to help you stay focused and avoid distractions. Use the 11 am technique to focus on the most important tasks and move quickly. Focus on one task at a time to avoid distractions and interruptions.
According to Runn, establish daily goals, and manage your time effectively to avoid distractions and maintain organisation. To work more quickly, get rid of distractions like social media and non-work-related tasks.
