How I Saved 4 Hours a Day by Removing These 4 Useless Things from My Life
4 Simple Changes That Gave Me Back 4 Hours a Day
I used to believe that working more hours equated to getting more done.
So, I spent countless hours at my desk, sacrificing my mental and physical health, and relationships with loved ones, all in the name of "productivity."
But then, I realized that I was actually being unproductive. That’s when I decided to take a step back, reevaluate my habits, and make some changes that went against the norm.
Yes, one thing is certain and that is the fact that I love being productive, but I also love doing things my own way.
I’ve always been a bit of a rebel, and I’ve found that breaking away from conventional habits can be incredibly freeing
In fact, it was by challenging some of the most common productivity norms that I was able to gain back four precious hours in my day.
And you know what? These 4 simple changes gave me back 4 hours a day, and improved my overall well-being.
So, if you’re ready to challenge the status quo, and reclaim your time and life, keep reading.
Here are the four simple changes that made all the difference.
1. Sleep More to Do More
It may seem counterintuitive, but the first thing I did was prioritize sleep.
For years, I prided myself on being able to get by on just a few hours of shut-eye each night.
But I finally realized that cutting back on sleep was actually making me less productive during the day.
So, I made a commitment to get at least 7 hours of sleep each night.
And I discovered that I always wake up feeling refreshed and energized, I was able to get more done in less time.
2. Stop Multitasking
As a self-proclaimed "multi-tasker," it was hard for me to give up the habit😀.
But I soon realized that I was actually slowing myself down by trying to do too many things at once.
So, I made a conscious effort to focus on one task at a time. I found that by giving each task my full attention, I was able to complete it more efficiently and effectively.
And that meant I had more time to devote to other things.
3. Take More Breaks
I used to think that taking breaks was a waste of time.
But I’ve since learned that taking regular breaks throughout the day can actually help you be more productive.
When I feel myself getting tired or unfocused, I take a quick break to recharge.
This could be as simple as taking a short walk or doing a quick stretch.
And when I come back to my work, I’m more focused and energized than ever.
4. Use Technology Wisely
Technology can be a huge time-suck, but it can also be a productivity powerhouse if used correctly.
I made a few simple changes to my technology habits that helped me get more done in less time.
For example, I turned off notifications on my phone and computer so I’m not constantly interrupted by emails and messages.
And I started using productivity apps that help me stay focused and on-task.
Final Words
Making these four changes wasn't always easy, but the rewards have been more than worth it.
By prioritizing sleep, focusing on one task at a time, taking breaks, and using technology wisely, I've been able to gain back four hours in my day.
