Here are 5 Ways to Stay Focused During Tedious Tasks and Maximize Your Productivity:
_______
1. Ruthless prioritization strategy
Stick to the top tasks of the day. List them out, number them, and do not waver no matter the distraction.
2. Long-term Objective & Key Results (OKR) Planning
Set personal goals for the year, quarter and month.
3. Fast execution
Quick transition from idea to getting started. Do not dwell too much on skills that you are lacking and just get the project started. Start to figure it out as you go and be okay with that process.
4. Embrace and thrive on challenges
If you do so, then you will naturally be motivated.
5. Develop the habit of being productive
Once you do so, and the more experience you have, it gets easier to jumpstart and unblock/delegate projects.
