Get information from ground level to upper level, see things at a helicopter view. Weigh and study the situation before making your decision.
1. Keep possessions organized. It'll be easier to get a task done if you have all the supplies on hand to do it. Avoid wasting time looking for tools or documents by having them all accessible and organized from the beginning.
2. Make a list of all things that need to be done for the day, week and month. Even though you may just want to do this in your head, actually writing it down has a huge impact.
3. Find motivation.
· List all the advantages of completing the goal you have. Come up with as many things as you can. For example, if your goal is to make friends with a colleague, don't just say 'I will have a new friend.' Instead, advantages can include: I can meet people from their social circles; Our work can be more enjoyable; We can learn from each other; They may encourage me on days when I feel demotivated etc.
· Tell people when you will be finished by. This is a very powerful tool for getting things done as it increases the pressure on you. Tell as many people as you can and emphasize how good your finished thing shall be.
4. Find out if music works for you. Some people prefer to work in silence; others like to have music on. Also, find what type of music is best. While most find relaxing, gentle music best for homework, college assignments, etc.; others don't. Most people find that the type of music varies from task to task (e.g. fast music for cleaning or relaxing music for paperwork).
· Remember that you may not be able to play music for the task. For example, you may not be allowed to play music at work/school.
· Try not to play music that you will be tempted to sing along with.
5. Remove distractions. Distractions can include phones, emails, social media, family etc. Whatever is deterring you from working needs to be removed. If you are being distracted every15 minutes, you will get little work done because it is impossible to get immediately back to work after a distraction. For most people this takes5 -10 minutes.
· Consider letting your family members, coworkers/classmates, or housemates know that you're buckling down to work on something important, so that they won't distract you.
