Does this ever happen to you? You have a task that you know you have to complete by a certain day, yet you canât seem to get it done. You keep pushing it and pushing it until the deadline comes. You frantically work to complete the task; you are stressed and feel that you wasted valuable time.Â
Is this you?
You know you have to increase your productivity and get things done, but you are not sure how to start. Sometimes you start to get motivated, but you soon lose that motivation and momentum only to be left in the scenario we painted before.Â
Here, weâll share with you how to stop procrastinating, become more efficient and boost your productivity. You can start today!
Productivity is a way to measure efficiency. Essentially, it is how much of something you can do/produce in a certain amount of time. To increase your productivity, you want to do/produce more in the same amount of time as before. Highly productive people are not necessarily those working 24/7, but those who know how to utilize every minute of their workday best - work smarter, not harder.Â
Multiple factors lead to lack of productivity, the main one being procrastination, i.e. postponing or delaying something you know you have to do.

Quitting your procrastination habits is not as simple as turning off the switch. You have to create new productive habits. Here are some tips to get you started and become more productive:

Once you make those habits, youâll find yourself being productive even when the motivation is not there. Motivation comes and goes; a strong habit is hard to break, so create productive ones.Â
