10 Tricks to Help You Get More Done in Less Time
There's a way you can get more things done in less time, and it's easier than you think.
While it's not possible to gain more time, there is a way to squeeze more productivity out of each day. The following planner tips will help get you there:
- Write
everything down: Getting things out of your head and down on
paper is a great productivity-boosting move because it de-clutters your
mind and frees you to become ultra-focused on the task at hand. Dedicate a
planner as your only writing space and stop shuffling through notepads,
notebooks, and paper scraps.
- Take 5 each morning: Sit down with
a cup of coffee each morning and plan your top appointments and
activities. Make it a point to revisit your planner throughout the day to ensure
you stay on-track with your set priorities.
- Use your Sunday “me time”: Spend 15 minutes each Sunday with your day
planner. Use this downtime to preview your appointments and tasks so you
can hit the ground running on Monday.
- Simplify your tasks: Procrastination can easily derail your productivity
when you're overwhelmed by a difficult task. When you write your to-do list
in your planner, break down your tasks into small, accomplishable activities.
- Track
your time: Keep a daily time journal in your planner. A summarized
list of your hourly activities paints an honest picture of where your
time goes, tells you when it's time to move on, and reminds you to keep focused.
- Use
one calendar: Consolidate your schedule into one quickly
accessible, go-to location like your daily, weekly or monthly planner
pages. You'll be able to view your big picture, and make more efficient
time choices.
- Create
flow: Sometimes it's hard to get rolling. Get yourself into the
flow by scheduling 15 minutes in your planner to work hard on one task –
then set an egg timer if necessary – and you’ll find yourself working longer
and more focused.
- Avoid
distractions: Schedule a daily "Distraction Free Hour"
in your planner. Then, shut your door, unplug from the internet, turn off
your phone, and blot out any other external noise that steals your
time.
- Use
routines: Combine a series of repeating daily tasks into a
morning routine where you can quickly knock-out a number of tasks and
create some momentum for the rest of your work day.
- Review
your day: Before turning out the lights and closing the office,
take a few minutes to write in your planner at least 5 important things
that happened. Tomorrow you’ll launch quickly into where you left off.
While it's true you can't gain more time, with these steps
you can start taking advantage of your precious moments, and start being
a productive new you.
