Give Your Productivity a Spring Boost | VetFran

While it might seem like winter just began, there’s good news: Spring is coming up fast! Daylight saving time begins in many places across the country on March 14, and the official start of spring comes on March 20.

For many of us, winter causes a dip in our productivity, both at work and at home. Gloomier days with less daylight sap our energy.

As we head into spring, though, now’s a great time to get yourself in a better spot, productivity-wise. Give these tips a try:

Create a Strong Morning Routine

The way you start your day is a testament to how the rest of your day is going to go. When you wake up late and in chaos, the chances are high that your day is going to be stressful and chaotic.

Therefore, set your day up for success by establishing a morning routine. It ultimately doesn’t matter what your routine includes—the important part is setting up a routine and staying consistent. Yours might include meditation, exercise, time to sit with a cup of tea or a hearty breakfast.

Carve Out Technology-free Time

We spend a lot of our day around technology. Whether we are in front of our computer or on our phone, technology takes up a lot of our day.

As a result, it is important to make sure you are taking a much-needed break from technology in order to recharge your batteries. During the work-day, try to take a 15-minute break from your devices in the morning and in the afternoon. Then at night, unplug at least an hour before bedtime to ensure you get a good night’s sleep and are better able to conquer the day.

Shift Tasks Around as Needed

If a certain task on your to-do list feels like pulling teeth, shift it to the side and pick up another project. While your schedule likely won’t always accomodate this tactic, it can often be a way to spark productivity.

Once you get started and knock off an easy item or two off your task list, you may find that the to-do you dreaded is easier to handle.
