You can train yourself to be better at avoiding procrastination by practicing mindful attention, meaning that you sit down and allow your mind to drift, but as soon as you feel yourself drifting, make the conscious effort to bring yourself back to the task in hand. Continued practice of this will make your brain much stronger in resisting temptation.
7 Well Timed Exercise
Exercising at certain points throughout the day can be really helpful in giving you the adrenaline and endorphin boost that you need in order to stay focused and motivated on the tasks that you have to complete. Don’t let your workout be a diversion, but more a replenishment.
8 Curb Carbs
To be able to perform at your best mentally, you should avoid meals that are heavily carb based, as although they might give you an immediate temporary energy boost, you will be much more likely to crash and burn later on when your digestion really kicks in.
9 Clean Space
A clean space equals a clean mind, so in order to be as productive as possible and check off all of the tasks on your to-do list in no time at all, make sure that your work space is as spotless as it can be!
You don’t need more time to do the things you need to do – you just need to be better and more efficient.
