A More Productive Work Day
There are several things we can do throughout the day to optimize our mood and performance. We will not only to be more productive, but happier as well. A goal orientated work day is great, we all feel good about ourselves after completing a big project or closing that huge deal, but here are several tips you can try throughout the day, or add to your normal routine, to make the it the best it can be.
Get organized or create a to-do list. This will help organize your thoughts and expedite the things you need to do throughout the day. It can also help to plan ahead using an organizer or calendar to make appointments. Make sure you include breaks on your to-do list as taking a step back from your day to relax is important.
Eat healthy and exercise. Too often we underestimate the relationship your physical self has with your mental self. Keep energized! Try to avoid fat or sugar laden foods that will drain you, and keep vegetables or fruits as snacks to help keep you going through-out the day. Try to get up and walk around the office for a few minutes everyday, sitting too long and too often is bad for your health.
Wake up early and give yourself plenty of time to sleep. It’s never a good idea to be rushing around and stressed about being late especially first thing in the morning. If we wake up and start having anxiety immediately we fill our systems with stress inducing juices that toxify our bodies for the entire day. If you start your day stressed out the rest of your day will be no better.
Try to clear your mind before getting out of bed in the morning and going to sleep at night. Meditate and focus on your breathing, then concentrate on positive and motivational thoughts. Remember life is about perception and it will be what you make it, focus on the good things and the results will astound you.
Throughout your day stay positive and happy, even if things are not going great. This positive energy will influence and impact those around you and it will indirectly help to create a more motivated and upbeat work environment, thus increasing productivity. Good morale is important in all businesses and organizations and can be absolutely vital in certain industries.
Try these simple steps and you are guaranteed to see improved results. Many of these steps have to do with keeping a healthy physical and mental self, which when you think about it, is the best way to optimize your performance. Stay positive, stay healthy and you will automatically increase your productivity without even trying.
