Being productive at work is something that many of us often struggle with. This struggle often results in a drop in productivity at work, both in quality as well as quantity. This often causes people to spend unnecessarily long hours at work and may even result in low performance evaluations from peers and seniors. If you find yourself or any of your family member or friend in a similar situation, then know that it is time to look at the way you (or your family or friend, whosoever is in question here) work. Here we share a list of hacks that can actually help you in a situation like this.

2. Set weekly and daily targets
It is very important that you set your target for the week and for each day.
Here, we are referring to the target you want to set in terms the actions you
will take during the day and during the week to get the results (targets) which
are probably set by your company.
Often, we have a tendency of not focusing on setting the target, what we need
to achieve by end of the day and end of the week. Not having a definitive
target can often give a sense of being directionless, which will result in low or
zero motivation to do work.
In contrast, if this habit is applied we know a list of tasks and action to take
during the given period. This makes us more effective in doing the work as well
as keeps us motivated.

3. Set key morning tasks, before leaving work
It is a good habit to set the first few tasks for the next day by the end of the day
before leaving for home. This helps you prepare yourself mentally for the work
you are required the next day. This sets the tone for the day very well. As well
as, it gives you a lot of room to let the work being processed in your mind.
Suppose for example, the first thing you have to do the next morning is to
give some new ideas about a project. In this case, if you set this objective, your
mind know you require ideas in the morning. The mind will thus, already start
preparing itself to look for ideas.

4. Take breaks
It is very important to incorporate little break in your work routine. These can
tea/coffee breaks or just a 10 minutes away from thinking or doing work.
Taking small breaks as and when required will give your mind the time and
space to refresh itself which makes it more effective to do the work, when you
get back at it.
The theory behind this is that we have a given attention span, once that time
passes it is difficult for us to focus and hence a short break is required. Some
researches suggest that on an average, the human mind has a sustained
attention span of 50 minutes to one hour. After this time passes, the mind is
not able to focus on the same. Taking short breaks refreshes the mind and
makes it ready to focus again.
Here taking breaks does not mean that you take a tea break after every hour
of focused work time. That's not practically possible and is also not good for
you. You can take some of these breaks as a tea or coffee break, some of these
as spending five minutes chit chatting with a colleague, just walk to the water
filter and have a few sips of water, etc. What you do in that break is your
choice and it is best to include multiple things.

5. Deep breaths
Another life hack that can enable you increase your productivity quickly at work
is taking deep breaths. Deep breaths ensure that you get enough oxygen for your
body and mind. When there is plenty of oxygen the mind as well as the body is
more relaxed and calm. When the mind and body are well relaxed you will be able
to do your job better with the precision that is required.
So, next time you feel distracted and not able to focus on the task at hand, take
five deep breaths and as you exhale your breath out tell yourself to be relaxed.
You will see the immediate shift in yourself and your productivity will certainly
improve.

6. Make it fun
Now, this one is simple and easy: Anything that we do not find interesting
and find it boring and dull, we are not motivated to do that work. So either we
keep postponing that or we do a bad job with it. If this has been happening to
you too lately, it is time you evaluate yourself and your situation. See are
being all too serious with no fun, if that is the case being productive at work
will be a challenge. Look again at your situation and ask yourself how can you
add some dash of fun to it. What can you do to make it more exciting,
because if it is fun and exciting you will be more motivated to focus on it sub
consciously as well as consciously.
