Prioritizing activities
When we talk about personal productivity, anyone can have good days or bad.
Good days are those which you feel good because you have accomplished important tasks. Bad days are those which you feel bad because couldn´t do anything useful in order to achieve your goals.
If you want to have a better life, you need to fill it out with good days.
The best to do this is to organize yourself according to your priorities.
Is easy. I promise
I had this problem. Not anymore.
That´s why I wanna share with you the routine that have changed my life.
Look what I´ve done...
I wake up early, but not that early. Most of the time at 6 am.
I spend half an hour doing something to stimulate my creativity. Lately, I have been jogging for 30 minutes while I listen to TED Talks;
Then I start working. Usually an hour after I wake up. My first hour is dedicated to work on my main goal, not an urgent demands;
If everything goes right, then I hit the urgent tasks;

Atention!
There are two things I never do in the morning:
a) Read the newspaper, twitter, whatsapp...;
b) Read my emails.
It is not good to do these chores in the morning because they consume your time and energy and it will realease an unproductive state of mind.
I´ve followed this routine rigidly five days a week.
It has been huge transformation in my life.
And when I see all my personal projects lifting off I say that it was worthwhile.
Now it´s you turn.
Please share your thoughts, experiences and what you´ve done to increase your productivity.
