An organised mind.
You need to approach organising your environment as you would approach organising your mind.
People usually assume that this is a battle between Analytical vs. Creative part of your mind, which is not true.
The idea is to have your information organised in your mind. That you can find any memory, idea, fact, story or anything else, on command.
It’s the same thing for your environment.
This way you will save an incredible amount of time when trying to find an object, or think of a story to tell in a conversation, or a fact that can help you pitch your idea in the meeting.
There is nothing worse than having to stumble through your belongings because you don’t know where you placed a certain item.
Here’s how you can do it.
You will need primary work area and the secondary work area.
The primary work area is your desk, and on it, you need to include only the things that you are using on a daily basis. Everything that’s used once a week, or that doesn’t have a practical use, move to the secondary work area. Including photos, candles, staplers and other things.
The secondary work area is usually a shelf. Here you place everything you use on a weekly or monthly basis, like books, reports, cables, printer, photos and everything else.
The rule to follow:
If you take an item, once you finish using it, return it to its original place and position.

Computer & phone.
The first step, delete everything that you do not need — files, apps, and old movies that you watched two months ago.
The second step, what remains, place in folders, that are specifically created based on your priorities.
On the main screen, keep only applications that you need to use on a daily basis, and in the order of frequency (I know some people that sort apps according to colour — one screen all blue ones, one screen all green ones and so on)
Place everything that’s used on a weekly basis on the secondary screen.
Get used it it, and that’s it.

Using Applications & Browser Efficiently
When working, don’t open ten applications, open only the ones you need for the task at hand.
Once you finish, close off every app which isn’t necessary for the next task.
Same thing applies for open tabs in the browser, just imagine how much time you lose while trying to find the tab you need when 25 tabs are open.
These things add up a minute at a time.
There is a variety of apps for productivity, focus, and habits. But, my suggestion is to keep it simple.
I use Notion because it has an option to access it offline.
Here I have a list of high leverage activities in a sequence.
When I wake up, I already know what’s the next one, and I start doing it. Once done, check it and go to the next one.
Next, to Notion, I use Pomodoro App called Focus Keeper (Basic version is also free) when I have smaller activities in a day. This challenges me to execute faster.
Whenever you have a free hour, and you feel like doing it, just start with the first one on the list.
Know one thing, using these apps regularly is also a habit you need to establish.
That is why it’s good to choose the main one, and learn how to use it as a supplement.
Thats it!

Focus and Concentration Skills 🥷🏼
Your ability to focus on a task until it is COMPLETE is one of the greatest indicators of your future success. All millionaires and billionaires have mastered the art of single focusing on one thing until completion before they move onto the next task. Sounds crazy...living in a world that is full of distractions and notifications.
So.
What is Focus?
— It's just a thinking skill that allows people to begin a task without procrastination and then keep their attention and effort until the task is complete.
Why Can’t I Focus?
— Most people don’t have trouble with focusing. They have trouble with deciding. What I mean is that most humans have a brain that is capable of focusing if we get the distractions out of the way. Have you ever had a task that you absolutely had to get done? Aaand...You got it done because the deadline made the decision for you. Once things became urgent your brain took an action.
The Myth of Multitasking
— Technically, we are capable of doing two or more things at the same time. It is possible. What is impossible, is concentrating on two tasks at once. You’re either listening to the TV and cooking pasta is background noise, or other way.
So now we made it to the main point..here some tips for you guys on
HOW TO IMPROVE CONCENTRATION SKILLS:
Choose an anchor task. I plan to complete many tasks during the day but my priority task is the one non-negotiable thing that must get done.
Manage your energy, not your time. Make a schedule for a time of day when you have the energy needed to focus.
Never check email before noon. Focus is about eliminating distractions.
Leave your phone in another room.
Work in full screen mode. Whenever I use an application on my computer, I use full screen mode. If I’m reading an article on the web, my browser takes up the whole screen.
Remove all tasks that could distract from early morning focus.
STAY FOCUSED & HUSTLE.

How to trigger the State Of Flow.
“The happiest people spend much time in a state of flow — the state in which people are so involved in an activity that nothing else seems to matter; the experience itself is so enjoyable that people will do it even at great cost, for the sheer sake of doing it.”
- Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi
Treat this activity as if you are implementing a habit, where consistency will always beat quantity.
Whenever you block time, even for 30 or 60 minutes, work in short bursts.
25 minutes, 5 minutes take a break, walk, stretch and so on.
Before learning how to trigger flow, let me tell you why multitasking is bad.
First of, having several projects on-going is not multitasking.
Secondly, multitasking by definition is dealing with more than one task at the same time.
The reason why I am not supporting this is that every time you need to sit down and focus on a task, it’s a long procedure, and once it happens you go with the flow.
Switching from a flow to any other activity breaks the flow, and then you need to repeat the process, switch focus to the new business and then develop a flow.
The more often you switch, the higher the cost of transfer between activities.
Just think about your situation, how long does it take, you to regain your flow, when you break it?
For me, it used to take more than 5 minutes to go back to writing where I left off. With practice, I’ve learned not only to trigger flow on command but to train myself (like a dolphin) to focus on only one thing.
The Rule To Follow:
If you start something, work until it’s finished. If the task is too big, work on it until you’ve finished one critical section. Don’t break the flow.

Live a 24-Hour Life
We, humans, are creatures of instant gratification, which means that we want pleasure and results as soon as possible.
So, whenever you have a goal, you immediately start thinking about all of the tasks you need to do, and how long it will take you to finish each one of them.
You might even start taking action, but it often happens that you fall off the wagon because you don’t see results that fast, which additionally demotivates you to give it another go.
Instead of approaching it like this and having to kickstart your motivation every couple of weeks, I suggest that you set a goal you want to pursue, and then break it down into activities and habits that will help you accomplish said goal.
From then on, every morning you wake up, you should focus on the day ahead of you, to take action towards your goal(s), and achieve incremental progress.
Stop pondering about the past, and the mistakes you’ve made and failed attempts, and stop thinking about the future, and what will happen the next day, week or a month.
Short aims, fast reach. That’s it.
