I started getting more productive by

Breaking things down into doable steps,

If the steps are smaller,

You're more likely to do them.

Plan out for 30 mins every night for the next day.

Write a list of what is on the following days agenda: Work, Gym, Birthday, Post office etc etc.

Split your day up into; Morning 6am-12pm; Afternoon 12pm-6pm; Evening 6pm-12am.

Then on this day highlight the non negotiables, e.g. work is 9-5.

Then highlight your priorities, things you need to do. e.g. taxes.

Then highlight the things you don't need to do but will progress you. e.g. gym

Then highlight the things you want to do but don't need to do. e.g. read.

Make this into a checklist, some in the morning, afternoon and evening.

Then as you complete them, you stack wins.

Psychologically, your building momentum to make you more productive.

You can then also do what you didn't do the previous day the next day and it keeps it fresh.

I like to plan my week roughly on Sunday evening, listing 3 things I'd like to do day by day, individually.

In the weekday evenings, schedule everything.

You'll have some recurring tasks as well, for me it's duolingo and gym.

This setup also makes weekends more productive, allowing you to do anything you want instead of scrolling on TikTok.

Hope this helps

the next year is going to go by whether you're doing something about your life or not
right now what you're trying to get done write down what you need to get done on a long-term basis and which need to get done on a short-term basis
right off a checklist for yourself be accountable the difference between a dream and goal
is a timeline and accountability yeah accountability is gigantic you gotta have somebody whether it's yourself or a friend or
somebody that's going to say
look
did you do what you said you're gonna do by this time and if you don't hold your feet to the fire because
i mean just sit around dreaming someday
someday i'm going to get a different job some day i'm gonna change this will someday in a day of the week you gotta say okay
i wanna take the small step by hear this most whether this most by their incremental changes over the long haul and the way you have to look at it as if these two votes are going in a parallel direction and one of them just shifts five degrees
over the course of time
this boat is going to be in a far different place in the other both is going the same way it was always going
well you know what
you make those incremental changes and then
you know pretty soon
in december you go
i'm way better off than i was at the end of february so shit
you made little changes and they all ended up
and if you don't by the end of the year you're just in deeper so every little bitmap
