10 Practices to Help you Save Time at Work

Saving time at work may seem like a difficult task. Here are 10 practices you can do to save time at work!
1. Prepare all you need for the following day.
Get all the items you’ll need for work, including snacks and lunch. Put them in one place so you would spend less time looking for stuff.
2. The power of saying “No”.
Use this power. Do not accept new tasks that you cannot handle anymore. Know your own limits. Of course practice this moderately. You wouldn’t want to be saying No all the time.
3. Remove distractions from the equation.
There will be distractions. Identify them and remove them. If it’s your phone, turn it off. Employees tend to spend a lot of time on their phones and wasting their time browsing the internet for non-work related stuff.
4. Delineate a time limit in which to complete task.
Instead of just sitting down to work on a project and thinking, “I’m going to be here until this is done,” try thinking, “I’m going to work on this for three hours”.
The time constraint will push you to focus and be more efficient.
5. Get the “hard” work done as early in the day as you can.
Then you can fool around and “procrastinate” as much as you want. Or you will have more time to work on the next important task.
6. Touch it once.
When an actionable task crosses your path and only takes a couple minutes to accomplish, take care of it right away.
7. Work on Pomodoro time.
The “Pomodoro Technique” is a time-management technique where you work on just one activity for 25 minutes, then take a five-minute break. It’s incredibly effective.
8. Lower your expectations. This may sound like strange advice, but lowering your expectations makes you more confident, and lets you relax, have more fun, and not worry about proving yourself to others.
9. Reward yourself. Adopting new behaviors and habits is difficult, but providing yourself with rewards for following through with new behaviors has been shown to help you solidify new habits.
10. Don’t think of the totality of your to-do list.
One of the fastest ways to overwhelm yourself is to think about your massive to-do list. Realize that no amount of thought will make it any shorter.
