Here are the 5 most common challenges of productivity and how to overcome them.

Procrastination

There’s no denying it; we’ve all been there.

You’ve got a project due tomorrow, and you’re nowhere near finished. The overwhelming feeling of dread begins to set in, and before you know it, you’re in a full-blown panic.

But it’s not too late! There are things you can do to overcome procrastination and get the job done.

First, take a deep breath and try to relax. It might seem counterintuitive, but stressing out will only make things worse.

Once you’re feeling calmer, look at the task at hand and break it down into smaller, more manageable pieces.

Then, set a timer for yourself and start working on one piece at a time. Work for as long as possible until the timer goes off, even if it’s just for a few minutes.
