"7 Habits I Avoid to Become Highly Productive" ๐Ÿš€
(Cutting these things helped me boost my productivity.)

๐Ÿงต Thread Time: ๐Ÿ‘‡
While most people try to become more productive by adding things, Iโ€™ve discovered it's far easier to start by subtracting what kills productivity in the first place.

If youโ€™re ready to skyrocket your productivity to get more done than ever before, avoid these 7 specific habits:
1. Focusing on Minor Details, Not Results ๐Ÿšซ

Productivity is about how much you create and deliver; not just finishing busywork.

Donโ€™t overfocus on minor details like having the perfect calendar.

Measure your results and your work will improve.
2. Checking Devices First Thing in the Morning ๐Ÿšซ

Avoid checking your phone, emails, and social media first thing in the morning, which puts you in โ€œreactionโ€ mode.

Instead, take a step toward your goals before touching them.
3. Allowing Distractions During Work ๐Ÿšซ

Multitasking and switching tasks ruin your productivity.

Instead, minimize distractions while you work and remove clutter from your workspace.
4. Working Until Exhaustion ๐Ÿšซ

Donโ€™t work until youโ€™re exhausted; youโ€™ll burn out and had nothing left for the next day.

Instead, stop when you feel your productivity decline and take breaks throughout your day to conserve energy.
5. Working Without Priorities ๐Ÿšซ

Prioritize your tasks based on importance, not just urgency, so you can maximize the results you get from each workday.

Read this thread to learn a powerful technique for prioritizing your tasks:
6. โ€œFindingโ€ Time to Do Things ๐Ÿšซ

Donโ€™t find time for the things that are important to you; make time.

Set it in your calendar and build your schedule around it.
7. Failing to Set Boundaries ๐Ÿšซ

Avoid saying โ€œyesโ€ to every request and overwhelming yourself with unimportant things.

Set boundaries on your time and learn how to say โ€œnoโ€ politely so you can say โ€œyesโ€ to what really matters.
