I love being productive. I really thrive off of it. I like to stay busy and be accomplishing tasks. I think I’m pretty good at being productive and can handle a good amount of things on my plate. I do take on more than I can handle. But I love a long list of to dos and crossing them off my list. I’m going to share with you my best tips for staying productive and things that really help me.
- Planner: My planner is my survival guide. I put every detail of my life in it. I’m not a google calendar gal. Writing it down works best for me and helps me remember tasks. I use the Day Designer from Target. The daily/monthly edition. This gives me a full page for everyday, so lots of room to write all the things down and strategically plan my day. I just picked up my 2021 calendar and to say I am pumped is an understatement.
- Reminders: The reminders app on my phone is a lifesaver. It’s automatically downloaded to your iPhone. I put all my tasks in here that I think I could forget. especially when getting ready to go somewhere. Since I do take a lot on, I need to constantly be reminded of all the things. I have reminders to take my medicine every morning, to keep vlogging throughout the day. (Ps. here’s my channel to stay up to date on my vlogs) , to catch up with you all on my stories… seriously everything. I don’t want to be so caught up in the big tasks that I forget smaller more daily tasks.
- To do list: Everyday on my page in my planner I make a to do list. Crossing tasks off of my list is the most satisfying feeling. I try to put as many tasks as I can think of and the ones that don’t happen automatically get added to the next day.
- Wake up early: When I wake up early, I am always much more productive. I take the time in the morning to have some Jesus time, leisurely drink my tea and feel confident about the day. The days I oversleep are always wasted days because I feel like I can never catch up. The extra 30 minutes to an hour is game changing.
- Eat healthy: Eating nutritious meals and whole meals makes me feel so good about myself and well fueled to conquer my day. I love fruits and vegetables and they keep me feeling fresh and productive.
What tips do you have for productivity?
