4. Aim for two minutes:
According to the two-minute rule, you should finish chores that take two minutes or less and give yourself two minutes to begin any small tasks that you have been putting off.
5. Time-block your itinerary:
You can also boost your productivity by using time blocks in your plan. You would assign a time restriction to each activity you worked on using this technique.
6. Get rid of distractions:
Consider what diverts your attention the most, such as Facebook updates, Instagram, or the local news, and switch off those sources.
