Why Can't I Get Anything Done  
TIPS 

Tags: productivity, work, job, laziness, lazy, productive

This list summarizes the handful othings we all know will make us more productive and yet refuse to do. Donald Latumahina explains:

1.	Rise early : Early-risers have more productive mornings, get more done, and report less stress on average than “late-risers.” Many people find early morning as very productive time to do their tasks.
2.	Start with the most important task : Start your day with the most important, not the most urgent task. Some people choose to start their day with things that seem urgent but actually not important.
3.	Do not multitask: There is an illusion that we will accomplish more if we multitask. But study shows that it is wrong. Doing only one task at a time allows you to have the necessary focus to accomplish the task with the highest possible standard.
4.	Prevent interruption: Find what may interrupt you, such as the cell phone, people around you, or the Internet. Then take necessary steps to eliminate any possible interruption as much as possible.
5.	Actually do what you need to do: The key to productivity is actually do what you need to do. For example, if you are a writer, you need to actually do the writing. Be careful not to get trapped by secondary activities. The most ironic thing is spending your time to maintain your productivity system instead of actually do what you need to do.
