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

Productivity improvement depends on professional management tools. I'd suggest to consider such solutions as online timelines or roadmaps, Kanban boards, to-do lists or mind maps. They all affect productivity and improve team collaboration in any team. My favourite software that is based on online Gantt charts is GanttPRO (https://ganttpro.com/). The tool looks really nice with its intuitive UX/UI design and a short learning curve. It offers a wide range of robust project management, project portfolio management, team collaboration, resource and cost management features.

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.

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.
