The best productivity hack is getting 8-9 hours of sleep every night. Second best is exercising 30-60 minutes each day. Both are obvious and overlooked, and yet make a more meaningful and immediate impact on the quality of your thinking than 99 percent of productivity tips

It’s all about the people you work with and allow people the freedom to work with a curious and courageous work ethic. At least that’s what we do 😉

I made my tasks into a game where I award myself in-game cash for completed tasks and projects! The way the cash is calculated is (time x difficulty) so like (25 min x 2 difficulty) you'll get (50 cash) and then I can go to the marketplace to purchase rewards,, like ordering food!
This is all automated in my notion!

Some great suggestions here - I'll add 2:
1. Set a timer (45-60mins) and don't touch anything other than the task at hand
2. Set calendar blocks for your to-do items rather than just a list

Gabriele Sangrigoli · Answer

@piyush_kulkarni Sure. It is important to have a balance in life. 
At the end of the day I want to be proud of what I have produced. 
Yet, I know when is time to stop and relax, but it is important to be productive when I have to work.

I rather work 6 really productive hours than 12 unproductive hours. :)

@gabriele_sangrigoli I think we come from the same school of thought! But we need to make sure that we don't let these things overconsume us, because then it can get a bit challenging
