Either way, we want to hear your thoughts on the best ideas for productivity. Here are a few ideas to get the conversation started: 1️⃣ Set SMART goals One of the best ways to be productive is by setting specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound (SMART) goals. This helps you focus on what is important and create a roadmap to success. 2️⃣ Prioritize tasks Prioritizing tasks can help you make the most of your time and get more done. Try using the Eisenhower Matrix, which categorizes tasks based on their importance and urgency. 3️⃣ Block distractions Distractions can eat away at your productivity, so try to eliminate them as much as possible. You could try turning off your phone notifications, using a website blocker, or finding a quiet workspace. 4️⃣ Take breaks It may seem counterintuitive, but taking breaks can actually help you be more productive. By taking regular breaks, you can recharge your energy and come back to your work with renewed focus. 5️⃣ Get enough sleep Sleep is crucial for productivity, so make sure you are getting enough. Aim for 7-8 hours of sleep per night to help you stay alert and focused during the day. Now it's your turn 👇🏻 what are some of the best ideas for productivity that have worked for you?

Best advice for me was to get off the phone and plan stuff with intention behind it!

For me the biggest productivity hack was to know what not to do, in which projects to not get involved, know how much to take on my plate and so on. We became obsessed with the idea of being productive when in fact we want some things to get done. Wanting to be productive might be a symptom of not knowing how to set up some boundaries.

Enough sleep and breaks is a must. Tried before and want to keep working on normalizing the regime. On top of that, at work I am also working with Timesheet [https://www.producthunt.com/prod...] and put there all the tasks completed so by the end of the day can actually see the amount of work I performed and the amount of work I spent. Seeing such a progress helps to stay motivated and productive!
