    1. Plan what you are doing tomorrow the night before. 2. Batch meetings/calls into certain days so you don't interrupt creative work. 3. Don't check email all day. Once in the morning, once at end of work day at the most. 4. Track the actual time you spend working (it is likely less than you think). No need for complex tools. 5. When you can afford it, hire a team to help and delegate tasks that aren't your core focus.

    I recently started planning my day using this ChatGPT powered personal assistant https://www.youtube.com/shorts/x... The problem I has before is that I would remember something that needed to be done & then I would forget by the time I had taken out my phone to type. Now I simply have a home shortcut that I can talk to. The app has a lot of build in AI that determines if it's a notes or a task that needs to be scheduled. I can also use it to ask questions like "What do I have planned for Friday next week?" Talking is by far the best UI & qwerki gets that right...

    “Swallow the frog” - > do the hardest task first.
    I go with the below flow: 1) High-priority and most important tasks. 2) High-priority and least important tasks. 3) Low-priority and most important tasks. 4) Low-priority and least important tasks. A few pointers besides that: 1) I usually plan my week ahead. 2) I make a checklist for every day the day before. 3) I will revise my work every week if not every day or so. This should give anyone clarity on how they want to plan their days.

    I think it's pretty simple. just focus on the harder tasks now and deal with the easier ones later :) you'll always have more energy in the morning anyway.

    I start my day with BAU tasks & then move according to the priorities. Try making estimates on how much time the tasks might take & split big tasks into smaller chunks of work. Use Trello to organize my tasks + my calendar.

    Eisenhower Matrix when I have tasks with different levels of importance. When I have a bunch of repeatable tasks or huge tasks ahead of me, I try to break them down into daily tasks, schedule time frames when I do these things

    Streamlining daily tasks and time management are crucial for productivity. Some effective techniques include prioritizing tasks, using time-blocking, and leveraging productivity tools. Additionally, adopting the two-minute rule for quick tasks and delegating when possible can make a significant difference. Remember, continuous improvement is key!

    I find that if you keep an open list to dump all tasks in, without trying to focus on putting them into buckets. Basically as soon as you think of it, put it in. Then be sure to schedule a time every day to go through all the tasks and organize and prioritize them. I find when you do this it allows you to have better focus on what you’re working on in real-time without distractions or stress about every non-related task in your head.
    We have daily meetings that last about ~20 mins, where we cover our tasks for the day. It helps a lot because you are constantly on track. For any bigger plannings we schedule a 1hr call where we plan everything for the next month

    I've noticed that time blocking for specific tasks and sprints has given me more urgency in the work that I do. If I allocate 3 hours to an allotted task - I try to keep that task within that window. Often times I run over but the self imposed sense of urgency is huge. My CEO (who is our development lead) has been setting up 45 minute sprints to debug and plug through necessary (but not exciting) tasks - that has been working really well for his personal output.

    I organize the tasks by importance, start my day with the most important ones and when I feel I get tired I switch to the easy ones, then back to the important ones. I also try to have the meetings during specific times and not spread them during the day as I get distracted

    Color code and time bound the task based on priority. This helps you finish in a much organised way with less errors. Ps: Don’t set unrealistic time bounds. This will make you prone to error. Give time for reviewing the tasks that you’ve done as well

    Me and my team classify tasks with "Doing, To Do, Important," etc. If I have 3 or 4 tasks a day I'll first sort with "Important" and finish those, than doing ones and so on. This way I know what I am doing, what is more important and also manging my time in the best way! By the way we our self are using bad project management which is taking a lot of our time and as a reason of this we are developing and going live soon with CompanyQueen.com as a project management tool for all teams suffering out there from bad PM. Stay focused and use the best solution to make your work easier and elegant.

    one thing i've found helpful? time blocking. split day into chunks dedicated to specific tasks. it's a fight against context switching, the true productivity killer. remember to schedule in breaks. counterintuitive, yes. effective, absolutely. time for the mind to wander fuels creativity, prevents burnout. delegate when you can. can't stress this enough. it's not about doing it all, but doing what matters, what you're best at. embracing automation is a game-changer too. small tasks repeated daily? there's probably a tool for that. saving minutes daily compounds quickly. and most importantly? allow space for spontaneity. life isn't just a to-do list. sprinkle in moments for joy, surprise, wonder. makes every day a bit richer.

    I have a database in Notion where I list my 3 MITs (most important tasks) for the day, as well as a database that lists all other tasks. One column of the database is "Estimated Time" where I tell myself how much time the task should take in hours. This is because I am trying to design my life in a way where I only work X amount of hours per day or per week. These databases have really helped so far!
