Out of The Zone : Part 1






















I have been finding the silver bullet to productivity and during my quest I found picked up some very useful tips from articles and websites. I started venturing into the world of productivity just a year ago; every piece of information forms a pathway to my current lifestyle. It was difficult to balance between study and passions, and my life was turning up side down before I realized it. Most of my time was spent on co-curriculum activities and computer, soon there was no time left for my study. Suddenly it dawned on me that it is time to steer my own life. Google is my best friend to ask fro advice whenever I have a question. My bookmark bean to be filled with productivity blog like Lifehacker, hackCollege, ZenHabits and 99Percent. Let's cut to the chase and starts with my first tip.

1. Control your sleep pattern

Sleep has been underrated is today's society. Cutting the your sleep time is not going to help you accomplish your tasks. In contrast, lack of sleep will decrease productivity. How do shape your sleep cycle for optimum producivity ? Firstly, you have to sleep at the same time every day to reset your sleep cycle. Avoid tuning to the television or computers before you sleep to enjoy a comfortable sleep. Besides that, wake up early in the morning to plan your day ahead. There is something in the morning air that seems to boost my performance. Many productivity guru claims that waking up early is a great ritual to increase productivity. i will leave something for the next post.
