5 Habits That Will Boost Your Workplace Productivity


The workplace and workplace experts have never been more focused on productivity and maximizing it than ever before. The pandemic and the switch to remote work have posed some serious conundrums when it comes to keeping people focused, motivated, and high-performing. With that as our backdrop, below are 5 habits that will help boost workplace productivity.

1. Eat Better, Sleep Better and Stay Hydrated

Everyone is aware of the 3 p.m. dip. It’s the hour after lunch when employees’ productivity plummets to levels that only a few cups of coffee can attempt to restore. Coffee and sugary snacks are merely a band-aid solution to a larger problem. Nutrition is one of the reasons many employees feel unproductive throughout the workday. Carbohydrate and fat-rich foods are known to promote weariness, sleepiness, and a lack of focus. As a result, an unhealthy supper might have a negative impact on an employee’s performance for the rest of the day.

Having healthy snacks available at work, easy-to-access water stations, and an emphasis on good sleep patterns helps employees stay focused and engaged in their work. It is easier to make better judgments when all three of these factors are in harmony. 

2. Learn to Prioritize and Create Task Hierarchies

Multitasking, contrary to popular opinion, does not work. According to studies, it is impossible to pay attention to two things at the same time. As a result, there is split attention into various activities and a poorer product.

Instead, it is preferable to prioritize chores. The morning is the most productive period for many employees. As a result, that is the perfect time to complete the most important chores and postpone meetings until the afternoon. This strategy also gives you a sense of accomplishment as you cross important chores off your to-do list.

3. Recognize and Get Rid of Distractions 

There are obvious productivity pitfalls, such as social media and personal cell phones. Then there are the subtler diversions. Emails and meetings are the most common culprits, as they are work-related but can nevertheless impair your ability to complete a task. Employees commonly rank emails as the second most difficult barrier to getting work done.

Employees spend a significant portion of their day checking emails, and many say that it is not the most effective manner of delivering information. Email communication frequently results in extensive email threads, infinite replies, and never-ending information.

Another important tip for eliminating distractions is to work offline as much as you can. There are going to be certain applications that you need to have active and open in order to stay in touch and collaborate with team members, but everyone undoubtedly has social media applications running in the background throughout the day that is distractions. Whether you give into temptation and check those WhatsApp or Facebook messages or not, even just hearing the vibrations and notification noises makes it hard to remain in a flow state. You can also utilize website blocker applications that stop you from visiting your favorite time-waster sites.

4. Schedule Regular Breaks

Productivity is not a consistent state for many people. Instead, it has peaks and plateaus and needs to be recharged on a regular basis. When the human body needs a break, it exhibits restlessness, inability to focus, yawning, and a variety of other characteristics. However, far too often, employees deal with it by relying on sweets and energy drinks to get through it. All of this leads to the same result: a tough to recover from a slump. Taking regular breaks is essential for sustaining productivity and avoiding slumps.

Breaks might range from standing up to get a cup of water to go for a brief walk outside. Employees benefit from a momentary change in surroundings since it allows them to replenish their bodies and minds. Another excellent exercise to do during a break is stretching. It has been shown to relieve stress, soothe the mind, and prevent weariness. Furthermore, stretching can help repair the harm done to the body by prolonged sitting. It enhances blood circulation, flexibility, and posture. Rather than pushing through it, employees should pay attention to their bodies and take multiple short breaks throughout the day.

5. Organize Your Work Space 

The environment in which an individual works reflects his or her mental condition. Those with ordered workstations are more productive than those with chaotic work locations.

When a desk is filled with heaps of paperwork, meals, and miscellaneous stuff, it is easy to become visually overwhelmed and lose attention. A clean work environment can reduce stress, improve focus, and deliver an energy boost. Rather than waiting for spring, staff should on a regular basis.
