There are no secrets to being successful, nor any magic you do not know. There are only jobs and rules below.
1. Focus somewhere and only somewhere!
The best way to be productive is to focus on something all the time. It's the only way to achieve the goal you have.
2. What is motivation
One way to keep motivation alive is to write down in a letter the reason why you are doing what you are doing.
3. Distinguish between urgency and importance
Urgency is the feeling you have when you feel you have to do something and you have to do it now! While importance relates to value. Is it worth the effort and time you are spending?
4. The so-called "pomodoro" technique
It is a method that helps you work very focused for 25 minutes with a short break of 5 minutes.
5. Stop dragging things
Start seeing where your brain goes when you are distracted. Once you do that, get back to the task right away!
