If you’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
Productivity is about how much you create and deliver; not just finishing busy work.
Don’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
Avoid checking your phone, emails, and social media first thing in the morning, which puts you in “reaction” mode. Instead, take a step toward your goals before touching them.

3. Allowing Distractions During Work

4. Working Until Exhaustion

Don’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
Avoid saying “yes” to every request and overwhelming yourself with unimportant things. Set boundaries on your time and learn how to say “no” politely so you can say “yes” to what really matters.
