Do you have a limited amount of time in which to work?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maybe you want to speed up the work process because you\u2019re not entirely thrilled at the tasks you have to complete.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

No matter your reason, it\u2019s worth being more productive when you have the ability to do so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this post, I offer four easy ways you can get more things done in less time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Break up work tasks.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Had enough of reading that long report on your computer?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why not shred a couple of inches worth of documents?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tired of filing those invoices?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Read a quarterly review.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can easily get more done by breaking up your work with different types of tasks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yes, you\u2019ll still technically be working, but this way, you\u2019ll be productive in the time you have.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trim that to-do list.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If your to-do list is filled with nearly eighty items, you\u2019ve got a problem. Your to-do list should only be a 3-5 bullet points. If your list is looking lengthy, it\u2019s a good idea to give it a trim. Bonus points if you create a short to-do list of items to complete within a brief amount of time<\/a>, say, within an hour or two.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stop multitasking.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You\u2019ll get more done if you focus on one thing at a time<\/a>. Put your full attention and focus on what you\u2019re doing. Eliminate distractions as necessary: shut your office door, temporarily switch off your smart phone, log out of social media, and so on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Get started right away.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re procrastinating on a project or assignment<\/a>, you\u2019re actually adding more time to your work, not to mention all the time you waste thinking about working. Take a deep breath, and begin your work as soon as possible. Even completing a small task is a start. Keep in mind, delaying work can lead to backed up and overtaxed workloads, and who wants that?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Create a template.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Having a template in place for a document,<\/a> or any other task, can really speed up your work. Yes, it will take you a few minutes to create a template, but after that, all you have to do is refer to your template. Just imagine what you\u2019d be able to do with your time if you had a couple of templates in your back pocket?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
