hey I am the Shelby and in this video
I'm sharing with you 20 productivity
tips to help you lead a more productive
life the first one is where you can
batch similar tasks batch edit your
photos batch respond to your emails
batch book your appointments number to
keep a list of wins for the day you'll
be more motivated to get things done
because they all want to be able to
write it down on your wins list number
three play the same wordless song on
repeat to keep yourself focused number
four if you keep having distracting
thoughts while you're trying to get
things done have a list where you write
those thoughts down I've made a whole
video on how to avoid distractions and
be more productive and that might be
helpful for you I'll link it in the
description number five start a task
finish it in full and then move on to
the next task it's incredibly simple
productivity advice that if you use it
will make a huge difference number six
if you've been procrastinating a task
that's been on your to-do list for a
while write down the first thing that
you need to do to move forward on that
task then take that first action number
seven figure out what time you work best
where does that be early morning night
or even mid-afternoon
and plan your most important work for
that time number eight if you have extra
money lying around automate as much of
your life as you can hire a cleaner get
your meals delivered do whatever you can
to outsource those mundane tasks that
aren't getting you towards your goals
number nine learn to prioritize figure
out what tasks have the most impact on
your life and work on those tasks first
number ten wake up an hour earlier to
work on your goals I got into the habit
of waking up at 5:00 a.m. a few years
ago and it has been a life changing and
I made a video about how I did it I'll
link it in the description number 11
create templates and checklists to avoid
decision fatigue so for example I have a
template that I use when I want to
create a video and I have a checklist
that I use whenever I'm cleaning my
house number 12 turn off all
notifications from your phone to take it
even further when you're doing work
leave your phone in another room number
13 when you finish your work for the day
clean off your desk give yourself a
fresh start for tomorrow number 14
download a social media blocker like
focus or freedom to stop you from acting
on that twitch that you get to go on
Facebook while you're working number 15
watch YouTube is like lavender bracelet
which this channel regularly to help
keep you motivated and inspired number
16 if the task comes up there's two
minutes or less
just do it it'll save you so much time
in the future
number 17 use the five-second rule to be
more productive so whenever you're
feeling lazy but you know you need to be
productive countdown in your head and by
the time that you count to one and you
need to get up and do something number
18 and break every big itas and to chunk
down tiny baby steps
like they say ate an elephant one chunk
at a time
number 19 minimize the number of
decisions that you need to make every
day you wake up with a fresh load of old
power and every time you make a decision
you're lowering it and number 20 it
seems counterintuitive but spend more
time on self care if you're doing things
like eating while sleeping enough
drinking water moving your body you're
going to be a more productive person if
you want more videos on a habit building
