watched reels for 5 to 10 minutes only.

We all have different tasks to do during the day span.
Some are urgent while some are less urgent.
So to use your time effectively we will have to set the priorities based on how urgent
those tasks are.
For that take a sheet of paper and write down a list of tasks and put them into one of 4
categories
Tasks that are important and urgent, which need to be done first.
Things that are important but nor urgent should be done next.
Tasks that are not important but urgent are placed in a separate category
Things that are neither important nor urgent keep them in the final category

is bringing you closer to your goals or taking you further from your goal.
If someone asks you to do something that you do not have time for then it is okay to say
no to them.
Because it is your time and you have to spend your time wisely.
Also remember, don't let your tasks get piled up because piled up tasks lead to stress and
depression..
So alot your time carefully to every task.
Tip no 8
Just do it
It is easy to procrastinate and find ways to distract yourself from task that you need
to get done.
Social media, television, internet surfing and talking with others on a cell phone are
the most common distractions for students.
So avoid wasting time by just starting a project or task you have been putting off.
If you do not feel like doing your scheduled tasks, just count 5,4,3,2,1 and start working
on that task without giving any thought.
This tip is very much beneficial because by simply starting a task you will feel better
about the progress you are making.
So if you are thinking about putting off a task, just don't.
Tip no 9
Use your breaks wisely
If you are prone to wasting time then be mindful of even spending 10 to 15 minutes of free
time because these smaller breaks of time can easily add up to 1 free hour or more through
a single day.
So you must be thinking what to do during those 15 minutes breaks.
Personally, I spend those 15 minutes in returning calls or doing exercise or in throwing a load
of laundry in the washing machine or by helping my mother in doing household chores.
Trust me if you do this you will be surprised by how much you can get done and you will
be proud that you have not put any of your time to waste.
Bonus tip: Never ever browse on social media or reply to any message because it wil waste
your time andd will make you less productive.
Tip 10.
Make technology work for you.
Technology can be an asset if you use it wisely.
Use apps and tools to help you track and schedule your time.
Set alarm reminders for when you are supposed to start a task.
You can even block websites that are tempting and encourage you to waste your time.
Tip no 11
Wake up early
When you get up early, you definitely have more time in the day!
Waking up early gives you enough time to read, or work on important projects.
Plus, when you get up and immediately do something important, it gives you momentum for the rest
of the day.

short break of 15 minutes

But it will actually help you to work better and be more productive.
In that break eat something, go for a walk or do some stretches.
