In our busy work life that’s limited to 8 hours every week, we often find ourselves in situations where we have to do more than what’s asked of us. Avoiding it isn’t an option and multitasking would only slow us down. Yet, many are able to finish their work on time and don’t let it pile up for next week.

How are they able to do it, you might wonder. Do they have a secret? Or a cheat sheet? One secret that all should know, is that they work for a very less time. In that time, they make the most use of their resources and finish every task at hand, one by one. Here are some more tips on how you can make the most of your time to be more productive:

1. Focus on one task at a time

The jobs you get in a single day are more than one and all of them come with strict deadlines. However, if you simply finish one task first and then move on to the next, it will be easier for you and won’t be tiring too.

2. Avoid multitasking

Multitasking divides your attention to other tasks, instead of focusing on one. Yes, it does help in you finishing your work at a faster rate, but it also has its setback – making mistakes. When you’re working on a single task, the chances of making mistakes are low as compared to multitasking.

3. Set a work schedule

Instead of spending your whole day at work and getting nothing done, create a work schedule, where you can devote time to work and what else needs to be done first. This way, you would be able to work faster and at a time that’s convenient to you.

4. Create a to NOT Do list

List down all the things that would take your mind away from work, be it social media sites, or gaming sites and try to avoid visiting them at your works hours. If at times when you feel the need to take a break, then visit them, but only for a short while.

5. Take a break

Our minds don’t work that well during pressure, so why let the pressure build up in the first place? Take a break every once in a while, by focusing on other activities or tasks and then get back to the work you were doing before. You’ll feel refreshed and would be able to do that job with a clear and concise mind.

While you need the money for basic expenses like travelling, food, bills, etc. At times it’s nice to spend that money on things you may not need but still want to buy it. And before you’ve realized it, you end up spending your entire salary without saving anything. However, it’s not too late, all you need to do is start saving, even if it’s less, but at least it’s a start.

Another important thing to consider is where and how to save money. Fortunately for you it won’t be a problem as we have rounded up 4 failsafe ways for you to save money.

The first step in saving money is to know how much you spend. Try making a list of your expenses and find out where your money really goes. Record even the smallest of expenses like buying a small pack of gum or a coffee at the cafeteria. Practice this habit for a month and you will come to know, every detail of your expenses. It will also help you to limit your spending on various things and save more money too.

Once you know how much your expenses are, the next step is to create a budget. Planning your budget involves dividing your expenses into ones that incur regularly and other small expenses. A budget plan ensures that you don’t over-spend on certain things and keep the money you’ve saved for emergency.

Shop Online

In today’s digital age, almost everything is available online; one needs not go to their local store when they can buy it online, that too at a cheaper rate. Many people don’t make the most of this and end up paying even more for things that could be bought at a discount online. Online shopping benefits many on a limited budget and you too can opt for this.

Set reasonable savings goals

When you want to buy something you really need, saving money for it is really easier. That’s why, it’s necessary to set a savings goal, especially one that can be easily achieved. If your goal is to buy a new home or save for retirement, it’s important to monitor its progress otherwise you might lose sight of it and end up spending that money on other expenses.

Although saving money at times might not be easier, especially in cases when money is tight, it’s important to remember that the money you save now will benefit you a lot in the long run. So make it a point to save your money at every available opportunity you get and sooner you’ll be saving more than spending it.
