Be productive in time of pandemic

Unplanned events can disrupt our modern lives. And there's nothing you can do to prevent unexpected events. And despite that unpredictability, we still have to function. But how do you stay productive when life is uncertain? Here are 4 tips on doing that.

1. Make a choice - the way i see it, we have two choices:

   A. We accept that life is chaos and find a way to adapt ourselves.

   B. We refuse to adapt and become miserable because "life is hard"

To me, its no brainer. i choose the former. And im guessing that your the same. Otherwise, you would'nt reading this.

Remember: We have to make that choice every single day. That's what keep us going

2. Stay focus on your task- when. something interupts your life, its easy to develop tunnel vision. Before you know it, your whole life can be consumed by the crisis. But we can't allow ourselves to forget where we are going in life. We neglect our work, family, friends and health under any circumtances.

To stay focused and not give up your ideals. Remind yourself of why you do what you do. No matter how hectic your life is, you can always find 10 minutes to sit down and reflects yourself.

3. Work in short burst - The Pomodoro method is one of the most famous productivity strategies for a reason, it. works

This is especially important during crisis when you can easily distructed. When you use a Pomodoro app in your computer. You're more likely to dtay focused.

Remember: Pomodoro method works best if you only focused on one task oer interval. I recommend working in 25 minutes intervals, with a 5 minutes break beforr you move on to the next interval. Take a 24 minutes break after a 4 intervals.

4. Boost your energy - life Can be demanding. You need to handle the physical and mental stress that you endure. How do we get energy?

A. Eat healthy

B. Sleep 7 to 9 hours

C. Get 30 minutes moderate exercise everyday

That's the foundation. You can go crazy with diet, eating patterns, recipes, exercies routine, sports, etc. That stuff is great. See it as a bonus. But always make sure to stick to the foundation, even if you can't follow the fancy diets and exercise plan.

CONCLUSION

Find structure in chaos- in the past, i hated uncertainty. I think that's something you learn as you grow up. "get a safe job" , is what people say. But they don't tell you that a safe job will ultimately make you lazy and weak. Why? Because you THINK you're safe. In reality, safety doesn't exist. Its no good anyway. Learn to embrace uncertainty for this reason:it forces you to.find solutions to every challenge you face.
