STOP TRYING TO HUSTLE HARDER PLAN SMARTER INSTEAD

Stop saying yes. How often do you

Do you ever wish you could accomplish more in a day? Whether you’re trying to squeeze out as many tasks as possible at work or take care of all of your chores before Sunday, it can feel like you’re always trying to maximize your productivity. But many of us feel like we fall short each day. You may think you just need to regularly refresh your coffee or eliminate every distraction from your mind to improve your productivity, but this only gets you so far. Instead, focus on incorporating strong, simple strategies into your routine. Here are three ideas to help you be as productive as possible, no matter the situation. Put a plan in place. When do you start thinking about what you need to accomplish on any given day? Too often, people wait until they face their work computer or stare at a sink full of dishes to strategize their day. Instead, take some time before you wrap up work to establish your priorities for the following day. Before the weekend starts, figure out which chores you need to do and the best time to tackle them. Having a plan will increase your likelihood of sticking to it.

say “no” to others? Many of us are people pleasers who often agree to requests,

even if they exceed our capacity. Saying “yes” all

the time will lead to burnout, regardless of whether it’s your boss asking you to complete a project before noon or your friends wanting to go out for the fourth night in a row. Say no, and keep your main priorities at the forefront of your mind. Take regular breaks. You may want to push through all your tasks so you can finally unwind and relax, but this could lengthen the process. Sticking to your responsibilities like glue prevents your body and brain from taking necessary breaks to recalibrate and reset so you can operate at peak performance.

“10/10 recommend. Communication and customer service were up to par, and the staff were very helpful!”

“After my car accident, I was fortunate to work with an amazing team that showed true dedication to their clients from start to finish. Their communication was outstanding — they kept me informed every step of the way. I especially want to recognize my case manager, Sofoni, who was absolutely amazing. Sofoni was attentive, compassionate. The PI department was professional and dedicated, and truly made a difference during a very stressful time. The entire team genuinely cared about my well-being, not just the case. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, caring, and trustworthy team after an accident.”

“As I don’t live in Florida, I was looking for a good attorney to help me with an issue in Golden Gate. I talked to a lot of different ones in the area, and I could not have hoped for a better result. They handled my case quickly and efficiently. Thank you all, and in particular, Hafida was always available to answer my questions and concerns. Now, every time I need a lawyer in that area, I’ll call them.”

–M.G.
