Think about your rewards and consequences

Think about what motivates you to do what you do today. Think about what you can accomplish if you work hard everyday. Think about the speed at which you can achieve what you want in life.

Wrong and negative reinforcement can often be even more effective. Whatever comes to your mind, write them down. And stick it in front of your desk.

Notes on Allt helps you make note your manifesto.

Kill your biggest time killers

Emails, text messages and social media. These are the things which kills your productivity. You need to get away from these during work.

Schedule your day. Schedule a time for these specific tasks everyday. Say 1:00PM everyday, during lunch, you want to check Facebook or Twitter. You make the decision on the time. And when that time is gone, stop using it.

Use apps to track your time

Doing everything by ourself is not always the way to do things. Paper, yes it works. But you need some apps to remind you and help you keep track of what you are supposed to do.

Apps like Allt.in, Focus and Hours helps you track what you have been doing with your day.

Allt’s Work Check-in feature helps you track your time. Easily.

Listen to music to help you isolate from noise

Music is known as the most powerful tool for you to keep your concentration very high and sharp.

You can be ‘wired-in’ to get things done efficiently. Technology is making it difficult for you to concentrate. But music can help you.
