Define what you want to achieve. Breaking down your main goal into sub-goals or tasks can make it more manageable. Determine which tasks are most important and tackle those first. The Eisenhower Box (also known as the Urgent-Important Matrix) can be helpful in this regard. and your time management is really important.

I think setting up goals for yourself is very helpful. I also did that during studies - when I knew I have to go through certain amount of chapters in a day in order to be able to know everything for the exam day and not being overloaded with work I was just productive enough to do what I planned. You are also way more productive when you are well rested and in the right headspace so taking care of that is super important :)

By counting to 3 and just diving into what needs to be done. Baby steps compound and momentum kicks in. That's when one would stop asking "best way to increase productivity", because you know now you're it. It's hard, of course, but most things worth doing and achieving are. Good luck

I find it helpful to implement artificial deadlines - usually followed by something that is like a reward. 'I have to get this done by lunch!' for example. Makes me focus on the task, with a reward to aim for

Prioritize tasks, minimize distractions, and delegate effectively.

Plan your activities and strictly follow the plan, and also do not forget to switch and relax.

I try not to plan too many things for a day/week etc. When I have a lot on my plate, I end up feeling frustrated because of an "unproductive day". It's very discouraging. So, no more than one major task for a day, if possible.
Eat the frog first and let the day flow smoother :)

1. To do list 2. First do the hardest tasks 3. Have breaks 4. Make timeslots and max time for some tasks so you don't waste time on them if they are not that important 5. Delegate stuff that you can delagate 6. Automate stuff thar you can automate

Increasing productivity can be achieved through a combination of effective strategies. Firstly, it's essential to prioritize tasks, focusing on the most critical ones to accomplish first. Time management is also crucial; consider techniques like the Pomodoro Technique to work in concentrated intervals with short breaks.
Group similar tasks together and tackle them in one go. It reduces the mental effort of switching between different activities.

Don't hesitate to delegate tasks when possible. It frees up time for higher-priority responsibilities.

To increase productivity, it's crucial to set clear goals, manage time wisely, and establish a daily routine. Prioritize tasks, tackle important ones first, and set achievable deadlines to avoid stress. Group similar tasks together to minimize distractions and context-switching, and leverage productivity tools to streamline your work processes.

throw your phone out of the window, while working or put airplane mode on (might better a better and cheaper option, than throwing it out of the window)

Start from physical side -- enough sleep, no alcohol, balanced food, exercises
