4 Ways to Be a More Productive Person

When it comes to productivity, there are some people that have it and those that don’t. We all have that friend who can’t seem to get anything done. At the same time, we all have at least one friend that seems to get a miraculous amount of things done in a short amount of time.

Ultimately, it all comes down to a question of organization. If you’re someone who’s looking for ways to get more done in a shorter amount of time, then here are some of the best tips for doing just that.

Implement Smarter Systems

Usually, people who are productive don’t just wake up one day like that. They actively put systems in place that make things go faster in the most efficient way possible. The best way to start is to take a good look at your own lifestyle. Where do you lose the most amount of time? Where is there room for improvement?

Once you pinpoint all of the areas in your life where you lose the most amount of time, start coming up with ideas for how you can make them go faster. Whether it’s automating your irrigation, or hiring a babysitter so you can get more work done after the kids are home, productivity can almost always be improved with a little creative thinking.

Prioritize

One of the biggest roadblocks for people who consider themselves easily distracted or lacking efficiency is the failure to prioritize. When you look at everything that you need to do as one big pile it can be difficult to know where to begin. However, when you prioritize, you organize what needs to be done when and go down the line accordingly.

Break up your tasks into order of importance, and check each one off as you go. By checking off your top priorities first, you’ll find that you’re much better organized overall, rather than scrambling at the last minute because you left your top priority last on the list.

Know Your Distractions

The best way to avoid getting distracted is to know where your weak points are. Identify what your biggest distractions are, and try to avoid them at all costs. Whether it’s someone talking to you, your phone ringing, or children in the background, try to find ways to work in the absence of these distractions.

As they say, out of sight out of mind, so if you can manage to keep your biggest distractions far from your working environment, you’ll be that much less likely to give in to temptation when trying to get your work done.

Take Small Breaks

One of the greatest secrets of productive people is taking small breaks. Even though logic may suggest that working nonstop is the best way to get the most done, the truth is that short breaks can often be much better for your productivity. It gives your brain a moment to recuperate and regather itself before diving into work hard again.
