5 TIPS TO BOOSTING YOUR PRODUCTIVITY

I love to find ways to boost my productiveness! Here are 5 simple tips that I use to increase my productivity.

1. Remain accountable to someone and something.
2. Set a realistic schedule that causes me to stretch.
3. Establish small achievable goals that flow into my main goal.
4. Make sure my level of effort matches my desired outcome.
5. Follow-up and follow through with actions.


Remaining accountable to someone or something is a great way to stay on top of a task or project. It helps because you have someone or something outside of yourself reminding you of what you set out to accomplish. The very thing that you desire to accomplish may need to be posted all around you to remind you of your desire.

Setting a realistic schedule will assist you in seeing that productivity is within reach. The key is to not make it easy, but to cause you to have to stretch in order to accomplish the task. Many people like to set schedules that they know without effort they can achieve. This is simply mediocre and nobody pays for mediocre! Stretch yourself by charging yourself to make big things happen one step at a time. Always check your schedule to see if it brings you closer to the overall goal of productiveness.

Establish small achievable goals that flow into my main goal. This can be accomplished by putting thought and effort into your goals and scheduling. See the big picture the night before as you plan your next day. If you plan you will have a blueprint to where you destination. If you know where you desire to go you will always be able to tell if you are being side tracked.

Follow-up and follow through with action. There’s one thing that you can be certain of and that's if you put action to your thoughts you will be further along than when you started. In order to boost your productiveness, you are going to have to "DO" more than what you are thinking and saying. Yes, you will have to think it out, but o are going to have to put action to your thoughts.

  1. Dr. Joseph, I believe your 5 tips are right on point. Especially, the ones about being accountable to someone else and having small achievable goals. When a person accomplish small goals, he/she feels a sense of worth and are encouraged to continue to move forward. Further, when you are accountable to someone, it deters you from procrastinate and becoming idle.

    This is great wisdom!!!
