How do you start? Obviously, by staring, my friend.
If you’re in your 20s or 30s, you have lived almost 204,768 hours.
That’s a significant amount of time when you stop and think about it. Now if I may ask, how many of those hours were productive? Of course, as kids, we knew little about productivity and cared more about short-term goals like eating and playing.
As we grew up, the concept of productivity became more important, yet many of us struggled to leverage our time effectively. We found ourselves wasting a significant portion of our prime, valuable hours without realizing the true potential of making the most of each day. Perhaps it was due to a lack of awareness, distractions, or simply not knowing how to prioritize and manage our time efficiently.
However, the good news is that it’s never too late to change our approach and start making our days more productive.
By incorporating a few simple habits and strategies into our routines, we can transform how we utilize our time and achieve a greater sense of fulfillment and accomplishment. Let’s get started.
1. Digital leverage
My friends keep complaining: I watch Netflix, and before I know it, an hour has already passed.
It’s true. Technology is both a blessing and a curse, but some people are using it to distract themselves rather than to achieve remarkable outcomes. Tools such as Pomodoro, to-do lists, excel sheets, and Google Calendar can make your life significantly better.
Use digital leverage tools to increase your productivity and reclaim control over time significantly. They provide structure, organization, and efficiency, helping you make the most of your day and accomplish your goals more effectively.
Technology is a tool, and it’s up to us to use it wisely. Rather than allowing it to consume our time mindlessly, leverage digital tools to our advantage and harness their potential for productivity. Here are lesser-known digital leverage tools that can significantly enhance productivity.
- Forest: Focus
- Google Calendar: Scheduling
