Hello everybody. So today we are going to discuss about 5 tips to increasing programming productivity. Tip number one
1. Leverage The Power of Habit:
Leverage The Power of Habit is to build productive routines. I asked you guys for book recommendations on Twitter and one of the books I got was The Power of Habit now, I actually started listening to the audio book of it and I thought it was really interesting because it helped me understand how I became more productive in the past years.
And now that I can pinpoint that it was because I was building A habit out of the things I want to be productive on that. I was able to make a routine and start cranking out code videos work stuff. You name it? Now essentially what you want to do is for the next 21 days do something every day. This could be coding flossing or whatever you want that you think is productive and after 21 days will be so hard for you to stop that’ll become second nature to you tip. Number two,

Try Start multitasking the mundane stuff for things that doesn’t require much concentration to do. Do something else that’s more productive while you do that.

Now. One of the things I like to do is actually to fill out my calendar with lots of focus blocks and deadlines.

Tip number four
4. When taking a break don’t think about work just have fun:
This is important because I see a lot of people have faster productive time, but they also have faster fun time. For example. I see a lot of people studying while watching TV shows that’s terrible because you end up not enjoying the show nor learning the things you’re trying to learn. So what I give myself a break I make sure I don’t think about anything else. I love TV shows. So I turn off my phone and immerse myself and surprisingly you’ll actually learn a lot more by doing that like, for example, I love to watch Pop videos and actually On the law of cinematography by dissecting these videos and just focusing on it. But if I was quoting while watching these Pop videos, I’d never appreciate them as much. Tip number 5
