Smart Tips: Productivity

Productivity is essential to get the most out of your life. Time is the only truly limited resource in the world and you can never make more of it! But… by using this Smart Tips course, you can make the best use of every single day. Time management doesn’t just mean getting more done, it means getting the right things done. The things that move you towards your goals, add value to your life at home and at work, and bring you success. So, if you want to be someone who is calm, organised and goal-orientated, then this course is perfect for you.

Welcome to Smart Tips: Productivity! In this course I’ll provide short lectures to help you do something new - fast, so that you can immediately apply it to your work or life. The videos in this course are standalone. That means you don’t have to watch in any particular order. If you’re searching for a specific skill or topic that’s relevant for you, take a look through the available tips to find the knowledge you need when you need it.

In this course you'll learn practical techniques from short action-focused bitesize videos. We cover how to identify what is truly important to you, detailed tips for how to get better at saying no, delegating and negotiating, what you can do about interruptions to win back hours per week, overcoming procrastination and setting great goals, and even how to get the most out of meetings and your inbox! After this course you will be calm, efficient, goal-focused, and above all productive. No more rushing around all day and feeling like you achieved nothing, getting overwhelmed by balancing your work and home commitments, and dreading going in to your office. In fact - you could even be ready for a promotion or new areas of skill growth! We look at lots of real life examples (some of which will definitely get you laughing) and give you practical tools you can use right away to get better results from every day.
