Running in the morning clears my head and gives me a lot of energy. After running, I feel twice as productive.

@nestolobo Usually, I run the same route - a little bit of woods and the rest through quiet suburbs. It's convenient because I know every tree and every rock, so I don't have to think about where to place my feet or anything like that. I'm just there with my thoughts, nothing distracting me.
I utilize time management and productivity tools to enhance my focus and increase efficiency, allowing me to accomplish more in less time. Whenever I encounter a task that demands too much effort, I search for simpler alternatives. Some effective tools I’ve recently explored include:
# 1 : Text Blaze (https://blaze.today/) : This tool has helped me reduce repetitive typing tasks.
# 2 : Pomodor (https://pomofocus.io/) : A simple Pomodoro timer that provides a basic timer function without the need for an account.
#3: iBoysoft MagicMenu (https://iboysoft.com/magic-menu/) This software customizes the right-click menu on Mac Finder, improving productivity by enabling quick file creation, file copying/moving, and fast access to items with a single click.
One productivity hack that transformed my workflow is time blocking; scheduling specific tasks during set times helps me stay focused and prevents multitasking. It’s a game changer for keeping my day organized!

@bilalasif Can't agree more
Definitely time blocking - changed my life! I schedule high focus tasks in the AM, admin/meetings midday, and creative work in the PM. Keeps me in the zone and cranking through my to-dos. Simple but powerful hack!
Definitely time blocking for me too! I break my day into focused chunks for specific tasks or types of work, and it keeps me way more productive than jumping between things. The Pomodoro technique with 25min focus sessions works great for this. Total game changer agreed!
