Want to get more work done in 2 hours than people do in 2 weeks?

Use these 9 productivity hacks I got from Pickle
1) The 2-day rule
This is simple but effective.
The rule:
Never let yourself go 2 days without doing a habit (ie. meditating, exercising, etc.)

This turns your habit into a game.

When you build a streak, you won’t want to ruin your “score.”

Thus, increasing adherence. Image
2) The 5-minute rule

Struggling with procrastination like me sometimes ?

Tell yourself you’ll only do the task for 5 minutes.

Most of the time you’ll get into flow and keep working.

A simple mindset hack that’ll build momentum.
3) Systems

Create systems for tasks:

• Hire a VA to do unimportant tasks

• Use software to automate repetitive tasks

• Create repeatable processes for important tasks

I guarantee this will save you countless hours.

Always look for ways to systemize.
4) Set clear priorities

Being busy is not the same as being productive.

1. Make a list of your tasks
2. Star the most important ones
3. When your energy level is high, work on those tasks

Having no priorities is like trying to get to a destination with no map.
5) Batching

Switching between different tasks drains your focus.

Batch similar tasks together to avoid this.

For example:

Batch creative tasks together one day:

• Writing
• Drawing
• Brainstorming

Batch analytical tasks another day:

• Editing
• Coding
• Planning
6) Categorize your calendar

Pick colors for:

• Work
• Errands
• Free time

Schedule these into your calendar and you’ll be much more efficient with your time. Image
7) To-Do List

Using a to-do list is one of the most effective way to gain clarity for your day.

Some of the best to-do lists:

• Todoist
• Ticktick
• Things 3
• Omnifocus

Make it a habit to write down your priorities.
8) Increase listening speed

When you listen to a podcast or an audiobook, set it to 2x speed.

You’ll consume information faster and free up more time in your day.

More time = More results.
9) Take time to relax

Meaningful work is the best productivity hack.

If you enjoy your work, you won’t need motivation.

You’ll naturally focus better and get less distracted.

So, find projects that are purposeful to you.

What you work on is just as important as how you work.
9 tips to get more work done in 2 hours than people do in 2 weeks:

1. Use the 2-day rule
2. Use the 5-minute rule
3. Create systems
4. Set clear priorities
5. Batch tasks
6. Categorize your calendar
7. Create to-do lists
8. Increase listening speed
9. Take time to relax
