Two of my top tips for productivity are creating organized to do lists and taking mental breaks.

 

One of my teams favorite resources is monday.com which is a work management platform, and it is one of my favorite things to help me with my to do lists! It helps me start work each day with a clear list of things I need to get done, and what items are high priorities on my list. I also love their automations! Sometimes if its a busy month, some monthly tasks will not cross my mind, but with monday.com I set up multiple automations so they are automatically added to my to do list each month. It’s amazing!! 

 

Another tip of mine is just taking mental breaks. It’s so simple, but helps me a lot. As social media managers, we are always on our phones or staring at a screen, so I love taking mental breaks for about 30 minutes during the day to step away and clear my mind. This practice also helps me a lot when I’m in a creative funk, and am having trouble brainstorming something new. When I take 30 minutes to clear my mind it will help me come back and be more productive in the end 😊

Breaks are so underrated. Whenever I’m feeling particularly stuck on a remote day, being able to step away and walk my dog for 15 minutes helps me come back to my to-do list with fresh eyes and more motivation. Not as much of an issue on office days because those are typically full of meetings, so I don’t get into deep focus time anyway. I’m curious to know how other people handle breaks and if they’re in person most of the time or working remotely.
