If we can't add hours to the day (unfair), we just have to use the ones we've got as wisely as possible. Read on for a few reminders and tricks to keep your day running like a well-oiled machine!

Calendar Everything:

Put EVERYTHING into a calendar and nothing slips through the cracks. Don't just think you're done for the day- know it! I use ClickUp for all my content planning, with a touch of Google Calendar thrown in for other tasks like billing reminders.

Worst Thing, First Thing:

Make your most dreaded task of the day the first thing you do. Feel accomplished before your coffee is even finished and leave maximum time to focus on the tasks you like best.

Life on Routine:

Babies and little kids thrive on routines, and so do business owners. Do you plan your days the same way every day? If you're generally doing the same things at the same times, you'll get into your productivity groove and stay there.

Orient to Your Goals:

Take time to reevaluate your goals from time to time. Make sure that where you are is actually where you need to be right now. Don't waste time chasing windmills.
