TOP 3 WAYS TO MAXIMIZE YOUR PRODUCTIVITY IN YOUR MOMPRENEUR BUSINESS


Happy Wednesday Mompreneurs! With Summer coming to an end, it's time to kick your productivity up a notch when it comes to your business now that the kiddos are back to school.  

Even though you may have a few more hours in your day to work your business, those hours can go by pretty quickly and can often get away from you if you are not careful.  

How can you maximize your productivity and stay focused on your Momprenur business, especially while the kiddos are at school? I have some tips just for you!

TOP 3 WAYS TO MAXIMIZE YOUR PRODUCTIVITY IN YOUR MOMPRENEUR BUSINESS

1. Organize and Prioritize Your To Do List

Every morning I prioritize my to do list and write in my Daily Routine Printable Planner the Top 3 things I would like to get done that day.  I focus on those 3 things throughout the day and if I end up checking them off my list, then it has been a productive day.  

Anything else after that is considered gravy.  Don't try to take on the world and approach each day with a huge to do list.  You will be left feeling frustrated and disappointed. 

2. Complete Harder Tasks During the Day

Complete your harder tasks, goals and deadlines for during the day while your kiddos are at school and leave the easier tasks for your evenings and weekends when they are home. 

Do you write blog content or create Instagram Reels for your business?  Those tasks can require a lot more of your undivided attention. Save them for school days to lessen the chance of a kiddo walking into the room while you're recording a fun reel asking for a snack.

3. Focus on One Task at a Time

Focus on one task at a time with little distractions. Even though the kids are at school during the day, working from home still has it's distractions.  Turn off your phone, TV or any other distracting screen. 

Set a timer for that one task you are focusing on. If your task is too large, break it down into bite sized pieces. It will not feel so daunting to complete.

If you don't end up finishing your Top 5 things that day, give yourself some grace and move them to the top of your to do list for the next day.  

One of the hardest things for me as a Mompreneur was the urge to cross everything off my to do list all in one day.  It's easy to fall into the trap that you can do "all the things", especially while the kiddos are at school. There are days it just isn't possible. Try not to set unreasonable expectations for yourself, it can lead to overwhelm and burnout. 

By only focusing on your Top 3 things, you will end the day feeling much happier and productive.
