Are there any ways to improve productivity?

No matter how difficult the task is, keep your composure, focus and write down what you need to accomplish.

Divide the whole work into several independent parts, and each part is divided into multiple easy-to-solve steps, so that the work becomes organized and easy to start doing.

Set a goal for yourself every day to complete the work first, and prioritize it, and everything goes according to the plan.

Write down the steps you've already completed and see what you still need to improve.

Set deadlines for each individual step, and don't let yourself slow down the work, no matter what the circumstances.

Don't just focus on work, forget to reflect often, know that if you just keep your head down and work hard, you may not even know that you have lost your way.

When focusing on work, turn off the network and mute your phone. When you are about to put into a very important job that requires all your energy to focus, the web version of WeChat quits and stays away from your mobile phone (to ensure that there is an emergency** that can be heard). Block all 95% of push notifications on your phone.

Take more notes, a good memory is better than a bad pen. Taking more notes helps us to improve our concentration, and at the same time, it is also convenient and quick to review materials, saving time and money. However, note-taking should also be efficient.

You can't just copy without using your brain, it's useless. You should record the general knowledge framework, key knowledge, and your own thoughts. In fact, when taking notes, I formed my own structured thinking.

If everything is memorized by the brain, it is easy to lose everything, and if you are not careful, you will miss very important big things, and our brain's short-term memory is limited, and it is easy to forget when you are busy, so I will write down what I want to do today, or paste it on the computer page, as the saying goes, "a good memory is not as good as a bad pen". It's clear what has been done and how much has not been done. I also know in my heart, whether to speed up or take a break. ‍‍

Make a list first, prioritize it, complete it one by one, and mark it up. Try not to touch your phone during working hours and turn off social software.

For example, if you want to get a high TOEFL score, then your goal should not be "I want to study hard and I want to improve my listening and writing", but "I should do x readings, listen to y listening and write z essays every week" so that it is more detailed and clear. ‍‍

Before doing things, we must have a full understanding of things, understand what our purpose is, and how we should do it. And pay attention to communicate with relevant personnel in advance to reduce unnecessary trouble. As the saying goes, "sharpening the knife does not mistake the woodcutter", and being well prepared will bring convenience to the future work

Abolish unnecessary work and bring maximum convenience to your main job.

When I was in graduate school, there were two rooms in the laboratory, and the instruments and reagents were not in the same room. I was often criticized by my brother for not being efficient. I thought I was fast enough to do experiments almost always trotting between rooms.

Once, when I was preparing a glass instrument, I was scolded by my senior brother: You spent an hour just preparing for it! I suddenly realized that efficiency was not how fast I moved, but that there was a problem with the program in which I did things.

Spent a lot of time on those unnecessary tasks. So I hope that the lessons I have learned will not be repeated.

What can be done in five minutes, do it now, reply to an email, pay utility bills, transfer a bill, send a data, this kind of things that can be done at hand, don't delay it later, it's easy to forget. And this kind of thing is often very influential. For example, at night, finding that there is no electricity, no water, no gas, will be devastating.

The data collection time has expired, and the prize redemption time has expired. This is how the phone's memory is taken up. Take a day to shoot **, take a minute to leave what you will be willing to share with others, and delete the others.

You won't always be reminded that you're running out of memory.

I usually give myself a motivation before I do something, asking myself, "Why are we doing this?" "This motivation can be utilitarian:

If you make a result, you can get a promotion and a salary increase. It can also be non-utilitarian: "Reading satisfies my curiosity and increases my knowledge."

It doesn't matter what kind of motivation it is, the point is that before doing something, if people can realize the value it will bring to themselves, they will be more motivated to do it. ‍‍

1) Make sure to spend a certain amount of time each day on important but not urgent tasks.

2) Analyze when you're most productive.

3) Choose the best time for important work.

4) Make sure you don't get disturbed while doing important work.

5) Pick up ** less to avoid being disturbed.

6) Anticipate and deal with problems in a timely manner.

7) Develop and insist on good working habits.

8) According to the work priorities, determine your actual goals and work methods every day.

9) Strictly discuss the implementation plan.

The way to improve work efficiency is to correct your work attitude and improve the utilization of time.

1. Correct your work attitude.

Work attitude determines the value of work: only by correcting the work attitude can we get what we want from work. Make dedication a habit :

The key to career development is not high IQ and good luck, but whether you have a dedicated attitude. Hard work pays off: If you want to reap the rewards of success, you must put in hard work, and no one can get it for nothing.

2. Improve the utilization rate of time.

Cherish the limited working timeCherish the limited working time, in order to do more things or do things well during working hours, in order to truly improve work efficiency.

Manage time effectively, improve work efficiency, and regularly check and reflect on your work in each time period. Identify problems with scheduling and factors that cause time to be wasted, revise them, and get rid of them.

Doing things in a smaller unit of time is conducive to fully arranging and using every little bit of time to limit one's time, and once you know that the time is sufficient, the efficiency will be reduced; Limiting your time can greatly improve your productivity. Rush for time at critical momentsA lot of work is easy to fail at critical moments, so we have to learn to rush for time.

Introduction to work efficiency

Work efficiency generally refers to the ratio of work output to input, which is the ratio of achievements and time, energy, and money used when carrying out a task. If the output is greater than the input, it is a positive efficiency; If the output is less than the input, it is a negative efficiency.

Work efficiency is an important indicator to evaluate work ability. Improving work efficiency requires a continuous increase in positive efficiency values. How well a person can work depends largely on the level of work efficiency.
