Most individuals wake up in the morning tired before they even begin their day.

It is difficult enough to get everyone out of the house and ready for the day sometimes.

 

There are times when getting ready for the day is almost as much work as the day itself.

In addition, then to have to think about being productive after the morning rush is another scenario all together.

 

However, there are ways to incorporate a little bit more productivity into your day.

All it takes is a little planning and a little practice.

​

Be a Pre-Planner

​

A little pre-planning and you are off and running for the day.

Although you may feel tired at the end of a long day to even think about planning for the next day, pre-planning is an excellent idea. 

If you take five minutes to make a container of leftovers for lunch the next day, you will have saved valuable morning crunch time. Picking out your clothes the night before is also another excellent way to create more time for your day.

An excellent tip for being more productive throughout the day is to check the weather the night before and you will be surprised at how finding your rain boots and umbrella the night before adds up to precious minutes.

​

Eat Right and Sleep Tight

​

In order to have a more productive day, you need to have a restful night. Eating light and healthy meals close to bedtime, practicing some relaxation rituals, and getting a good night’s sleep are all integral components of being more productive throughout your day.

When you are well rested, you have more energy and your memory is better, as well. When you remember more, you work easier and faster.

​

Take a Break

​

It is essential to take a break in the workplace once in a while. Sometimes time away from your desk or your office is time well spent. Going outside for a breath of fresh air, a cup of tea, or even just some sunshine breaks up the monotony of the day and gives you a fresh perspective on the rest of the day ahead.

​

Rely on Technology

​

Of course, you have to rely on technology, as well. There is an app for just about anything you need to know and remember. Use your cell phone to file away important documents, set reminders, and add meetings to your calendar. 

​

Stay in touch with family members, as well since things can change with family

throughout the day. A quick text about picking up the kids from soccer practice can really save the day.

Being organized is never easier than it is with today’s technology.
