1. Eat the Frog
Eating frog first is one of the best strategies to avoid procrastination. If your work itself is a frog (your most challenging and essential task for the day), it's best to do it first thing in the morning.
2. Keep things simple
That is a good recommendation for life and also for your business. Keeping all tasks simple and clear with focused baby steps helps you and your teammates to stay on task.
3. Prepare a To-Do List Each Night
Creating a daily To-Do list helps you to be organized. Starting your workday can be easier by avoiding waste of time.
4. Avoid Multitasking
Multitasking is the first enemy of your focus and productivity. Researches show that multitasking may be physically harming your brain.
5. Listen to Music That Boosts Productivity
A bit of Beethoven or AC/DC, your motivation, your music. Avoiding distractions is essential, but a good playlist can be helpful for your productivity.

6. Use Productivity Apps
We have many on the internet, but you should know those help to be organized. You can choose the most user-friendly one for yourself. We have some recommendations for this curation.
7. Focus on Result-Oriented Activities
Pareto’s law (also known as the 80 20 rule) states that 80% of the outputs result from 20% of the inputs. Finding true %20 helps you to reach desired results.
8. Delegate Properly
That is art for all managers and a must for effective leadership. Delegating is not assigning a task to someone and supervising it closely; it sounds more like micromanaging. When you delegate properly, you have more time to spend on your work.
9. Break up Work Periods with Exercise
Studies found that workers who used their company gym at lunchtime were more productive. Regular exercises increase your brain’s affective skills.
10. Get Enough Sleep
We all know sleep deprivation negatively affects our concentration, working memory, mathematical capacity, and logical reasoning, so a good sleep routine means more productive days.
