How to Squeeze Out that Crucial Extra Hour in your Hectic Work Day

24hrEvery person begins his day to explore as many possibilities as possible. They intend to work on important projects and grow their career to help them at their present job and the next jobs. But the fact is, as soon as you reach office and your first email pop ups, responding to emails and attending meetings become an unending errand that hardly provide you with the time to think. By the time you wrap up your tasks and get ready to leave your office, you are hardly left with the vigor to walk to the subway.

Successful people believe that in order to have adequate time, you should try to get up early in the morning.  Early morning hours are the most productive time of the day and ideal for accomplishing great tasks as nobody would interrupt you at 6 am for an urgent meeting or phone calls. Moreover, research conducted by psychologists has proved that one can work on complex tasks with more focus and attention only when the day is young. It is said that in the morning, your willpower becomes more active, and hence it is the ideal time for strategic thinking and planning. Therefore, if you want to get adequate time to think actively, make it a habit to get up at 6 am every day and bring out your best self to climb the ladder of success.

Things to do during that time:

  1. Utilize the time to prioritize your activities by planning your schedule for the day.
  2. Boost your spirit with a healthy breakfast.
  3. You can also utilize the time for solving complex business issues.
  4. You can read industry publications with more attention and concentration.
  5. You may start writing articles so as to contribute to the industry publications.
  6. You can spend the time brainstorming about your career.
  7. You can prepare a list of projects that you would like to work on.
  8. You can make a list of industry experts or people working in your organization that you would love to meet.
  9. You can check the alumni list of your school and college to send emails to the ex students you would like to know.
  10. You can spend the time practicing about asking for your next pay raise until you become confident of the fact that saying the number would not make you cringe.

If you keep delaying the above mentioned tasks to get rest of your work done, you will never get enough time to accomplish these tasks. Investing in your career is the most important factor to achieve success. Once you start investing in your career, everything else will eventually fall into place. Successful people believe that utilizing the early morning hours before leaving for work is the key to a healthy professional and personal lifestyle. So get rid of your laziness and learn to skip the snooze button to make early morning hours productive.
