By doing something at work you are not interested in will only lead to boredom, frustration, and even depression, this will often lead you into looking for other ways to fill the void, such as over-spending hours on TV. Find something you enjoy doing and are happy to do and you will find it really easy to succeed in the area. You should also set a schedule and some goals. Having a schedule will help you manage your time more effectively and will remind you constantly of your goal. You will know exactly when to do what and how long it should take you.
The old cliche’ that time lost can never be recovered, is unbelievably accurate when it comes to being more productive. By setting goals, you will know your priorities and work on them. Goal oriented individuals usually have better results to show for what they do. Learn from past mistakes, everyone makes mistakes, the trick is to learn from them. If you do something and it does not work don’t persist with the same formula, look at it in a different way and change your approach to the whole situation.
You can also get a mentor to guide you, it is always better to learn from another person’s success and follow their footsteps to grow as an individual. Learning from your mentor’s mistakes will also help you avoid the same traps in your own life. You may not realize it, but also having the correct diet affects you a lot more than you may presume. The food you eat affects the activity level and brain stimulation level. Having the correct diet will help you have a more productive lifestyle as a result.
