I Boosted My Productivity And Income At The Same Time!
I Turned My Habits Into Money Making Machine!
I like to call it a money habit though! I achieved so much in my life by bringing these few things into action.
I used to keep reading success stories and trying to become like them but couldn’t achieve something like that!
I wanted to be consistent in my life but I couldn’t, probably because I was lacking these golden habits.
I am, luckily, not anymore like that. Look, I am not flexing but my goal was to make $5 on Medium in September as I started this account (2nd time because the last one was hacked) on the 19th of September.
And look how much I made in my first 6 days with only 4 articles on Medium:
This was just one of the examples. I probably can’t flex with a few dollars nor is that my intention. But these habits helped me achieve so much.
If this is your case then this article is for you, because what I am going to share down below will help you achieve your goals and stay consistent.
1) Analyze your time:
Every single person on this earth is gifted with the same 24 hours therefore analyzing your time and using your time efficiently is your job.
Check your screen time on your phone, how many hours do you spend on your phone in a day, and doing what? If you are wasting your time and energy on screen for useless stuff then reduce it.
2) Set realistic goals:
Whenever we try to be productive, most of the time we end up setting extremely unrealistic goals that are hard for us to fulfill which results in our demotivation.
For instance, my goal is to gain 100 page views per month in the first 3 months on my WordPress blog.
Therefore, set small goals but realistic. Setting realistic goals is as important as analyzing your time.
3) Run out of motivation:
Come out of motivation and demotivation which means, don’t think, someone will come, motivate you then you will start working.
To achieve something in your life, you need consistency instead of constant motivation.
For instance, you have a 9–5 job and you know, you need to go every single day to fulfill your duty regardless of feeling motivated and demotivated, probably because you are consistent. You know very well if you keep taking leaves, you will be fired easily.
Bring the same consistency in working towards your goal.
Setting realistic and measurable goals can help you stay consistent.
4) Nobody posts sh** on social media:
This point might be a little off the topic but it is important to realize that every single person only posts the best versions of themselves on the internet. Nobody shares the worst part of their lives on the internet therefore don’t compare your entire life with that one social media post.
Be grateful for what you have. Practice gratitude for the little progress that you make.
5) Take your first step and don’t overthink:
Sometimes taking the first step is the hardest step but it is the most important step.
If you want to read a book but you are avoiding because it is going to take 3 hours. Then make it smaller for yourself and just read it for 30 minutes then you will see yourself enjoying it and doing it for longer periods.
6) Avoid multitasking:
Multitasking would simply destroy your main goal. Pick one thing and give your best.
This will help you in motivation and self-satisfaction to achieve something.
7) Delegate your work:
If any of your task is important and urgent then do it first by yourself.
If any of your tasks is not important but urgent, you can hand it to someone to help you.
By delegating your task you are helping others making money and saving your own time to work towards your main goal.
Along with these productivity tips, mindset plays a role too. Here are my 5 money mindset tips that made me more money than I thought.
