Want to create a habit that comes naturally?

Laziness sucks.

And it is hard if you are a hardworking student or a self-employed person. Freelancer but lazy in doing your tasks?

Maybe you are not doing these habits that will make you productive.​

Forget those influencers.

Some of them are paid to promote a product or an app that will make us productive. But here’s the thing, you don’t need an app to start your productivity.

Surround yourself with productive people

Everything will start with you, really.

What you need to do is to make action to accomplish the tasks that need to be done. Here are the things that you can do to be able to surround yourself with productive people:

• Watch YouTube videos about productivity

• Read a blog about productivity

• Work with a team or friends

Of course, the following will not be effective without proper management. So, you don’t only need to do this but you also need to take action.

Block your distractions

Sometimes, we are in denial about the things that we are doing.

We already know that we are wasting time but we keep denying it.

Here are the common distractions that you always encounter.

• ​Social Media​

• Laziness

• “Lack of motivation”

I will be publishing a blog on Medium related to this, so better to stay tuned and wait for it.

Hint: It is all about tools and ways that you can use to avoid and block distractions.

Avoid using your phone in the morning

In week 3, we discussed the most productive morning routine that you can do at home.

So here’s what you need to do instead of holding your phone immediately when you woke up:

• Make your bed

• Start stretching

• Meditate

• etc…

Always experiment with the things that will work for you. In the end, the most important thing is that you become productive and efficient.
