1) Plan your Time
Identify what you need to do. Then consider how much time you have to do it. How much time do you need to allocate per task?
Create an outline plan by setting goals. You want to complete X work by Y date. Use Excel, Calendar and other apps to plan your time.

2) Make To-Do’s
Break down work into smaller, manageable tasks. Prioritise tasks. Create checklists. Each tick off that list will boost your morale and motivate you. This will go hand-in-hand with you planning your time.
Organising your work is the best way to be productive.

3) Create a Routine
Are you an early-riser or a night-owl?
Adjust your work routine to boost productivity. If you get distracted in the afternoon, then wake up early in the morning and work then. Have some “work” and “social” slots.
Experiment to see what works best.

4) Dress for the Day and Adjust your Environment
Not everyone has a work-desk or a quiet house environment. There may be some settings that make you more productive.
Dressing more formally than casual wear can make you more productive and feel afresh.

5) Breaks
Take breaks to recharge yourself to ensure that you look after your health and wellbeing.
Incentivise yourself to work and then take a break where you do something you’ve been working towards.

6) Tackling procrastination
Ease yourself into working. Start doing a little bit and you will naturally get into that work 'element'.
Use apps/phone settings to restrict distractions.
Give yourself a pep-talk and see the bigger picture- what does doing work now mean?
