Student life is difficult and hectic with the hustle and bustle, exam stress, and more. The routine, as well as the sleep schedule, is often messed up and chaotic. And most of the time, we feel overwhelmed due to the same. Unfortunately, productivity goes dip if we work under such strenuous conditions. 


So, certain tips and hacks for increasing productivity are necessary to be productive and make the most out of your day. From waking up before sunrise to spending a day productively, there's a lot that one needs to understand and implement. 


This blog is your guide to living a productive and better life. Below are some crucial hacks and tips for boosting productivity and spending a productive day. 


Plan Your Day Ahead 


Planning ahead is the key to having a productive day. It helps you decide what you want to do and what not. It assists you in prioritizing and having a clear frame of things to be accomplished. Planning ahead is usually done the night before to attain productivity the next day. 


If you plan your day ahead, it reaps more benefits than ever. You can take charge of your day and make it the most productive one by planning your day ahead, that's for sure.



 


Exercise 


Stretching, squats, and a few easy exercises contribute to your physical well-being. One should exercise at least thirty minutes per day. Exercise increases your immunity but also improves your blood circulation.


Exercising also contributes to strengthening one's body and improving mental health. Exercise is for one and all. Students like you who need to study for long hours should include exercise in their daily routine. 


Have breakfast before 9 a.m. 


Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. It has to be the healthiest and the heaviest to help you sustain for the day. Having breakfast before 9 a.m. has its own benefits. It will not only refresh you for the day that follows but also strengthen your gut. Eating at appropriate timings and having the right meal intervals matters a lot. 


If you skip breakfast every day, you will not be able to sustain yourself in the long run. It will deteriorate your health. Taking care of oneself starts with the right meals at the right time. 


As a student who wants to excel in life, one must have breakfast before 8 or 9 a.m. to keep up with the crazy world running a race out there. 


Cut Screen Time 


Your smartphones or tablets can be the worst evils if you touch them as soon as you wake up in the morning. Exposure to blue light early in the morning is a thing that we should avoid as it messes with our health and proves to be an obstruction to a productive day. 


Cut down your screen time, especially in the early morning and late nights. It does more harm than good. Ensure you aren't hooked to the screen at least an hour or two after you wake up and an hour before sleep. It will help you maintain your physical health, especially eye health. 


Set Goals for the Day 


Without a definite goal, you are going nowhere. Setting goals are a must for the day, the week, and the month. To start off, start setting goals for the day. That is a big miss if you question how to have a productive day and still don't set goals. 


Your goals will lead the direction you need to proceed for the day. You will learn how and when to prioritize which task for the day. After fulfilling your goals for the day, the sense of accomplishment is absolutely fantastic.





Organize your Study Space 


Organized places make you want to be a disciplined individual. Messy desks and rooms throw you into a dump and fall into a vicious cycle of procrastination. Organizing your study space will help you perform better. It will help you reduce your mental as well as emotional clutter. 


Normalize cleaning up the room and organizing your study space at least once in two days, no matter how busy your life is. It is a reminder to not let go of discipline and be in a good place emotionally and mentally. 


Focus!


Focus is the key to success. Focus on your studies and work to successfully complete a productive day. Put your heart and soul into the subject you are studying and understand the gravity of things. It will take you further to success and satisfaction. 


Focusing on what you are doing will definitely boost your productivity and the power of concentration. So the next time you study, Focus! Focus! Focus!



 


Meditate and Perform Yoga 


Meditation and Yoga are great contributors to one's personal health and wellness. If you are wondering how to have a productive day, make sure you meditate. Listen to hymns or the Gayatri Mantra. Calm your mind and meditate for at least fifteen minutes every day. It will help reduce stress and make you feel peaceful and calm. You will also feel relaxed post each meditation session. Try it in a quiet room for better results.


Boosting Productivity the Right Way 


Productivity is a must for students, working professionals, and others. However, people might harm their health in the race to be overly productive. Remembering that productivity is a factor that contributes to the success and is not the whole and sole of it is important. Anything done in excess is evil. So, spend your days wisely and productively without unnecessary chaos and distractions.


Productive days should bring joy, wellness, and a better life. Utilize those correctly to become a better version of yourselves. Productivity matters because it is an amalgamation of goal setting, fulfillment, and time management. The more effectively you utilize your time, your days are more productive.

Response of a student; Pleading for change

Response of a student; Pleading for change . What will your reaction be when your own daughter becomes the prey of molestation?
