Productivity is not only about completing more tasks – it's about improving efficiency and time management. To accomplish that, you must first recognize what matters most to you, and only then you should handle business as efficiently as possible. Avoid distracting activities to increase your productivity. It is essential to stay focused to be productive. However, we are surrounded by many distractions waiting to steal our attention. Imagine getting notified when you receive a text or e-mail on your smartphone. Whenever you hear one, refocusing takes time, so deactivate as many distractions as possible to maximize your productivity.

"The dread of doing a task uses up more time and energy than doing the task itself."

"We are what we pay attention to, and almost nothing influences our productivity and creativity as much as the information we’ve consumed in the past."

"An unfortunate truth is that the brain is not built to do knowledge work – it’s wired for survival and reproduction."
