Leo at Zen Habits has written enough good content to make his blog a daily read for me. Recently, he listed 10 things you can do to increase your productivity levels.
In the past I would pick a few points and comment, however, in this case, all of these are pretty pertinent.
Clicking through specific points below will take you to a full explanation.
- Take care of your Most Important Things first
- Wake up early
- Simplify information streams, crank through blogs & email
- Declutter your workspace; work on one thing at a time
- Get to work early; work fewer hours
- Avoid meetings; when you must meet, make it effective
- Avoid unnecessary work
- Do the tough tasks first
- Work off-line as much as possible
- Do something you're passionate about
