Awhile back, I found a couple of great posts featuring productivity tips we hadn’t heard before, so we put the topic on the calendar. But we wanted to wait until we rounded up four really good posts to share, because I know that it’s such a hot topic and don’t want to share something you’ve heard a million times! Personally, I love talking about productivity and efficiency in blogging or working from home. Working remotely means you have to be very diligent about time or you end up working all night, and 3 years later I’m still trying to improve my time management. These gave me a fresh perspective and I hope they’ll help you too!
Jules at Creating Beautifully has a pretty effective system for simply getting things done that I hadn’t heard before. I also love the ideas about starting new projects!
Jackie of Jade & Oak also has practical tips for blogging time management. I think I’ve done just about everything she says not to do at some point or another, so I know how helpful these tips are.
When you first find out the secret to having more time that Mindful Pixels is referring to, you might do a major eye roll, not gonna lie! It seems so obvious, but everything Lin says is 100% true, and if you spend most of your time online you can definitely benefit from this… Even if you don’t think there’s a way.
This one is a lot longer and more personal than the others, but if you struggle with anxiety and productivity I think you’ll relate to this post on Carrots ‘n Cake! Working from home I know that awful feeling the next morning when you know your to-do list is out of control but don’t yet know how to approach it. Tina’s tips are spot on.
Let us know if you’ve written any posts that might inspire our next weekly resources!

Great little collection of seriously effective productivity tips, thanks! :)
I spent 2016 rolling my eyes at all kinds of different techniques and methods that were supposed to help me improve my business (and life)—I’ve heard them all before. But it wasn’t until I started actually DOING them in 2017, that I realised that knowing is not the same as doing.
My advice – try it all! Get your hands dirty, your brain working, your gut fluttering, and see what happens ;)
P.S. Thanks for making me a part of this productivity party ♥
