The Secret to 3x Your Productivity
SUMMARY
When people ask me for the secret of my fast productivity on whatever I do, my answer is always the same. FOCUS. Pay your 100% attention to the only one thing in front of you until you finish it. This is my habit of making this happen. Once I decide to do it, I will take baby steps every single day, slowly turning the idea into reality. That is my superpower.
I trained myself to pay 100% attention to the one thing in front of me until I finish the task. That’s non-negotiable. I communicate with those people around me before I start my task. Let them know that this is the time you want to work on it. If it’s not an emergency and life-threatening situation, please inform me later till I am out of my room.
This doesn’t only mean your distraction is only people. Your handphone is a big potential distraction for you too. Put your phone in silent mode is important to make sure you focus on whatever you’re doing. If you use your desktop or laptop to work, close down all the other unnecessary browser to make sure you only work on the task in front of you. Not Facebook, youtube or Instagram.
Another very important secret is having a good quality of sleep at night. You will do everything better with a good night's sleep. Do you notice that you’ll quickly feel tired and can’t concentrate well when you don’t have a good sleep the previous night? When you sleep less 90 minutes the last night, your brain power decrease by 30% the next day. Your reaction is slower by 30%. If you want to know more about the power of sleep and how you can improve your sleep, go to the video above. That’s awesome!
Never underestimate the power of these two simple habits. The habits that can make or break your performance in your personal and professional life. I urge you to start to practice these two habits; you’ll thank me later.
