6 Ways To Live a Better Life (Productively)
Productivity is a philosophy of life, a state of mind. Being efficient means doing, at every moment, what we consciously choose to do and not what we feel we are doing forced by circumstances. Productivity means adopting an attitude for continued improvement.

Find ways to break up your workday (or night).
For example, let’s say you’re a photographer and you have about five hours of editing to do one night. Work for three hours then give yourself a snack or paint your nails. Then finish up that work. Also, if you sit a lot in order to work make sure to build in a few stretch breaks into your day. You’ll feel better!

Be realistic
We all need breaks. Plan to come back to difficult or frustrating tasks later. Sometimes things don’t come together like we’d hoped. Sometimes a task turns out to be way more physically demanding than we thought. Be honest with yourself. Take a break if you need. Just be sure to make a specific plan to come back to the project, maybe seek out some help if you need.

Connect to your reality, not your emotional narrative.
Tangible success is important.....It’s not nothing. But it’s also not everything.

Make the most of the weekend
Decide whether you'd like to conquer demands in the mornings, afternoons, or evenings. Morgenstern says this can help you juggle your relationship with family, friends, and yourself, while also weaving in moments for pesky chores and overdue professional tasks. Be sure to also outline time to do, well, absolutely nothing.

Write down your accomplishments
At the end of the day, instead of focusing on what’s left to do, be kind to yourself by making a list of your day’s successes. Comparing your list daily, and then weekly, will help you realize just how productive you’ve become.
