A recent article, 10 Habits You Need To Give Up If You Want To Be Productive by Katarina Milovanovic says that when we are productive, we get tasks done successfully and efficiently. However, there are many habits that are killing our productivity that we are not aware of.
Here are some habits you should avoid to improve your productivity.
- Multitasking
Multitasking reduces your productivity and increases your stress level. When you multitask, you may have focus, but you can’t give your full attention to each task. Thus more often than not, each task will not be finished on time and the outcome won’t be so good.
- Not delegating
As a startup, you may think that doing everything by yourself can save you a lot of money. But actually you are wasting your time and losing a lot of money in doing mundane tasks instead of working on more significant tasks to pivot your business to success.
- Being fussy
Being particular to every detail of your work is great, but if you are paying so much attention on the things that don’t really matter will leave you with unfinished works and a lot of stress.
- Spending a lot of time on social media
You get lost in the world of social networks by looking constantly at the notification that someone posted something or commented on your status update. Instead of working productively you get distracted all the time by social media notifications.
- Going with the flow
Your tasks are piling up when you go with the flow —a muddled work schedule can lead only to decreased productivity, which frequently results in failure.
