8 Productivity Hacks You Never Heard Before

Days go by, but you’re not crushing your goals?

Let’s get productive!

// A T H R E A D //
1. Always be setting alarms:

Instead of wasting valuable brainpower to remember goals,

Set reminders to show up when you need to.

Nothing sounds more real than an ALARM!
2. Chunk Asks Together.

When you group similar tasks together, your efficiency increases.

You even feel more productive.

Begin with the hardest tasks in the morning.

Your best peak performance is usually 2–3 hours after you get up.

Leverage this.
3. Leave your phone in a different room.

Always have one deadline for yourself & another one for your clients or boss.
4. Always be building your personal brand.

As soon as people know what kind of value you offer,

Opportunities will come visiting you by the truckload.

You will network more.
5. Don’t forget to schedule time for rest.

This is a marathon not a sprint.

Exhausting yourself is the last thing you want.

Create a sustainable lifestyle, it’s a balancing act.
6. Listen all the time.

Extract value and show you respect others.

Listen to what isn't being said.

I told you before, LISTENING is a SUPERPOWER.
7. Always be delegating wherever possible.

Don’t do it all yourself, unless you’re Superman.
8. Humility is the name of the game.

Give back more. Don’t let ego have its say.

When you give, more comes back to you multiplied.

My 20’s were great.

I was young & hungry, willing to live life to its fullest, learn, earn & break hearts.

But it was mostly me who ended up broke & heartbroken.

I wish I knew better then

Advice for you to level up your 20’s

// A THREAD //
1. Build financial foundations

Your 20’s is the time to build foundations.
Lay the base for your financial future.

Save every month, invest if you can.
Your older you will be thankful.
2. Commit less to amorous relationships, more on yourself.

Know yourself well.

Committing to relationships which you know will fail, is not doing you nor the other person any favours.

Be honest with yourself.

If you heart says no, let your mouth speak the truth too.
