Break down tasks

Break big, overwhelming tasks down into smaller, more manageable steps. This will make them seem less daunting and give you a sense of accomplishment.

Set realistic deadlines

Don't set yourself up for failure with unrealistic deadlines. Be honest about how much time each task will take and schedule accordingly.

No distractions

Find a quiet workspace where you can minimise distractions. Consider using apps or website blockers to limit distractions during focused work sessions.

Pomodoro Technique

This time management method involves working in focused 25-minute intervals with short breaks in between. The short bursts of work can help you stay focussed and avoid burnout.

Reward yourself

Set small rewards for completing tasks. This positive reinforcement can help you stay motivated and on track.

Forgive yourself

We all procrastinate sometimes. Don't beat yourself up about it. Acknowledge it, learn from it, and move on to the task at hand.

Easiest first

Pick the easiest task on your list and knock it out. This can give you a sense of momentum and make it easier to tackle the more difficult tasks.

Enjoy it

If possible, find ways to make the task more enjoyable. Listen to music, work in a comfortable space, or collaborate with a friend.
