6 Ways To Have A Ridiculously Productive Week

This week I’ve managed to absolutely slay my to do list, I feel like I’ve managed to get my mojo back for everything. Whether it was blogging, or social media, or just life in general, I feel like I’m finally getting to a much better place. Now I’m posting this on a Sunday, and even though you might be reading this on a different day, the same rules still apply. We all have days where being motivated to do what is on our to do list, but here are my top tips on having a productive day & nail that to do list.

Schedule your time – I love a to do list, it really helps me to stay on track, but sometimes it helps me if I schedule my time, it keeps me motivated. Not only that I do really struggle when it comes to feeling overwhelmed with the amount of stuff I need to get done, so spreading it throughout the week can really help. I always try to leave a little bit of a gap because that way if there is an emergency, or life happens to get in the way at least it gives me a chance to space it out without setting off my anxiety.

When you schedule your time, prioritise – Now I know the things that I need to get done in a short time frame, I make sure that they are done first before anything. That way I can keep my head screwed on and not have to worry that I have forgotten something or left it too late when I have deadlines. Nothing worse than not sticking to a deadline because I have an awful memory!

Remember to take breaks – Honestly taking breaks is so important for my productivity, I feel that knowing I have just 10 minutes away from my computer with a cup of coffee helps not only my productivity, but my mental wellbeing. You want to enjoy what you do, you don’t want to feel like it is a chore and that is something that definitely applies when it comes to my blog because taking a break ignites my productivity and my motivation to write. 

On bad days, don’t force it – If there is one thing I’ve learned it’s if you’re having an awful day don’t force it. The more you force it, the less likely you are to have a massively productive week. I’m just trying to just stop forcing myself to be productive on those days where my mental health is awful, it’s not worth sacrificing your mental health for. Do what is important to you!

Remember to chill out & have a pamper – Yep the one thing that is easier said than done, chilling out is something that I tend to really struggle with, but right now I’m really trying to just chill out and be away from my computer, read more of my books and chuck a face mask on. I need to remember to take a break, you can’t be productive everyday, it’s exhausting so give yourself a break and pamper yourself. 

Sometimes being productive means taking care of yourself – I’m always very guilty of this, I normally put everyone before myself. Being productive doesn’t always mean you have to be doing something, investing time in yourself, not just having a chill out and a pamper. I mean, looking at where you want to go, how you want to achieve your dreams, investing time in your own personal health and wellness. These are all important for a productive week!
