How do you improve your productivity?

by•
I'm working in the tech for 12+years, mostly remote and being productive has always been an issue. From my experience what works the most is: - Define precisely my tasks, and keep it as small as possible (1h max) - Work with 100% on this tasks - Take regular breaks - and stop working after 4/5hrs of deep focus - Sleep and eat well I keep all tasks in a bullet journal, it's not perfect but I haven't found a better way to do it. (I'm building in public one product to solve this right now. Not sure how efficient it will be 🙂) What about you? What worked for you? How about

The Pomodoro Technique works best so far. I modified a bit for myself, for example, 45 mins work 5-10mins break. It depends on what I'm working on. 45 mins I can complete an article and rest 5-10mins.

@jorcus Do you use any tool for it?

Besides what you said I like to place the tasks on my google calendar, I usually don't move them from the timeslot I first assigned to it but if I have to I do it.

Clockwise is a tool I found that helps you to organize your agenda. Maybe you can try ir out.

I started to use www.usewerk.com, it covers trello, slack, discord and also document management. Yes, it's an all-in-one toolkit for remote workers like me. I highly recommend it for developer teams, product owners and project managers. Bye the way it includes async conversation which will be the next big thing in team communication.
