7 Steps to Incredible Personal Productivity

2012-01-23T18:00:00.000+01:00

Let everyone know. Interruptions destroy focus and kill productivity.
Set a target. Don’t plan your project day based on fuzzy parameters like, “I will stay at it as long as possible,” or, “I won’t leave until I no longer feel productive.”

Don’t take rest breaks. Take productivity breaks.
Don’t stop until it’s done.
