My go-to productivity hack is time blocking. I schedule specific blocks of time for different tasks and activities throughout the day, allowing me to focus on one thing at a time without distractions. This method helps me prioritize and manage my workload efficiently.

Coffee between 11PM-4AM, best timeframe to 10x my productivity.
Have enough rest. Zero energy = zero productivity.
Daily to-do list. Sometimes you just fly through it.
@ziga_kerec Same! Sometimes I add things to my daily to-do list that I already completed just for the dopamine hit.
Break for meditation. Really helps me focus. And monitored breathing for removing stress and pressure
Don't eat anything until 12 PM :D
@relja_denic haha, That's definitely an interesting productivity hack Relja! I'll keep that in mind :D
@relja_denic @tunc_emran I would say don't eat anything until 6 pm or have a break between meals over 16hours, as after that time you body is start releasing certain enzymes that let your brain focus.
@relja_denic just sleep?))))
Prioritize tasks, use the Pomodoro Technique (25-min work, 5-min break), and limit multitasking. Stay organized, set clear goals, and avoid distractions for peak productivity YouTube Vanced.
@advika589 the Pomodoro Technique is my #1 productivity hack!
That and music that doesn't have lyrics.
Notion with Motivation 😅
I have quite a few:
1. No phone before breakfast
2. No social media before launch time
3. Pomodoro timer: 25 mins deep work, 5 mins pause
4. Headphones with ambient music
5. Time tracker for all tasks (I use the free version of Clockify)
6. Daily to-do list that is created from the evening of the previous day, I don't add any new tasks to my to-do list that I receive after 12pm, I add them to the next day
These are the 6 most important I guess
Good playlist 🎵
Having enough and quality sleep is #1 Productivity Hack for me.
But besides that, here is my list of things I do on a daily basis:
1. I make sure I write down every single task I have down into my productivity app (shameless plugin Insumo, check out my profile).
2. I make sure I pick 3 task to get done every morning.
3. I timebox those tasks on my schedule.
4. Always make sure to do 2 exercises per week and plan them at the beginning of the week. I play tennis so accountability partner helps me accomplish that one.
5. If I feel unmotivated to get started on doing thins, I stop working and do either a meditation or listen to a podcast to ground myself.
6. Extremely bad with time so I make sure I leave buffer times for everything I do, and I schedule them on my calendar too.
7. I always use reminders, and alarms for the things I do, so using a apple watch helped me remember things even I leave my phone on my desk.
Saying No.
The 𝗥𝗼𝗰𝗸𝘀 - 𝗣𝗲𝗯𝗯𝗹𝗲𝘀 - 𝗦𝗮𝗻𝗱 method
I work in marketing so this is how I categorize my tasks into three types:
Rocks to me are tasks that directly influence our bottom line metrics (=revenue).
Pebbles are tasks that influence the leading indicators (awareness, inbound bookings, conversion rates).
Sand are small incoming requests or regular tasks that require my short ok to give them a go
No matter what, I commit to 2 rocks and around 5 pebbles in a week.
Traditional notebook note taking 😅
Prioritize, Just do it.
strict deadlines))) sometimes I just can't make myself do stuff unless I know there are some boundaries I shouldn't cross, works miracles
@darya_antonyuk That's a great point! strict deadlines can indeed provide a sense of urgency and help maintain focus.
Power nap! I wish I was able to practice it more frequently 😅
1. Planning
2. Prioritization
3. Sincerely rejoice in completed cases
4. Be less distracted by social media
5. Wake up and get up before 9 am
