Time Wasters Vs Productivity Boosters: Making Every Hour Count

With more hours or not, I think I'll still be one of those who procrastinate about things that needs to be done if I think it's going to be a difficult or time consuming one. But that habit have been on a deep decline for as long as I can remember as now, I love to get things done as quickly as I can.

I'm not the very hardworking type as I see myself as someone who only gets things done that are more pressing than others and I take more time to do the others, I find it stressful to use all my time on a particular thing so multi-tasking is something I do a lot to utilize my time everyday.

First of all, I'll say 24 hours is perfect for me to do what needs to be done and if I can't get all done, I hope to see the next day and continue but in those hours, I still take the time out to rest and get recharged for the next working hours. I see it as one waste of time wishing for more time lol.

Long before recently, I would procastinate in everything. I still do it now but there's been a lot of changes since I started to try making good use of my time everyday. Trying to make every hour count is not an easy feat but from the little I've been doing intentionally, there are good changes.

Since I can't have my wish for more hours of the day, and I can't deprive myself of my rest and sleep time to use more time, I try to utilize the time of the day I have well enough and I try not to keep too much loads of work waiting for me the next day. Having a daily to-do list works for me.

Time is an important aspect of life and can never be gained back once it's lost, I don't even want to think about my age as time ticks every second. Using my time on actions or activities that are not productive or make my time's worth are the last things I want to find myself engaging with.

Time Wasters I have identified most recently that I am working on is spending too much time watching short dramas and scrolling through clips on Tiktok and YouTube shorts. Even though I can get some info from them and idea on what to write or share about movies, it's still too much.

A few days ago, I thought to myself what difference it would make in my general productivity daily if I should get rid of these time wasters and I figured I'd be doing so much and achieve more but I'm yet to find the discipline to do away with them. Regardless, I have been able to reduce the time I spend on them little by little.

I think identifying and getting rid of time wasters is a productivity booster but one major booster I do to increase productivity is having daily targets and making sure I achieve them or get close before I feel relaxed to do other minor stuffs of the day like watching movies, chatting and exploring new things to learn for more growth.
