Want to be more productive at work? It's time to start working smarter.
We all want to be productive in work. We want to hit the ground running at work and be as productive as possible. But it’s these times that we have to be most careful not to overwork and stress ourselves out.
When you’re writing out your daily to-do list, make sure you put in a short break after each big task and be sure to include your lunch in there as well. Getting into the habit of only ticking off those breaks when you’ve actually taken them is a good trick for those determined to clear the decks. If you’re a virtual list-maker, consider adding pop-up reminders to your routine.
It’s also a good idea to spend a bit of time figuring out how some tasks could be sped up. It’s tempting to continue working the way you’ve always worked because it’s quicker than having to think of a new system, but taking the time to become more efficient is always worth it.Put simply, task debt is when you continuously carry over a number of tasks on a daily, weekly and even monthly basis, constantly promising yourself you’ll get to them.
