Getting More Done

We all want to get more done in less time. Everyone is given 24 hours in a day and the trick it to be able to use it to your advantage to reach that goal of getting things done. Admit it, you have tried all those time management tools and mobile applications and found that it was abandoned within a week. You probably even chained yourself to the desk but the real secret here is to be able to understand just how your brain works. Since most of us are worried about our willpower, we don’t push ourselves to our maximum productive output: instead of “giving our all” for brief productivity sessions, we distribute our effort throughout the day, leading us back to busywork to fill our time. One of the best ways to approach the day is to work for 90 minutes and then take 15-20 minutes for a break. This combination matches best with the way that your brain works. It is also important to break down huge projects into smaller tasks. And just so everyone knows, there is no such thing as multitasking. The best way to fight the multitasking bit is to plan out your day the night before.
