We present to you 6 ways through which will journaling can help with promoting productivity and personal growth. Let’s get started! 1. Write Down Your Most Important Goals What do you want to accomplish? Who do you want to become? What are your short-term goals? These are just some of the questions you can answer while journaling. The journal is the perfect keeper of your goals. Writing your short-term and long-term goals in the journal can keep you focused on what you want to accomplish.   What's more, writing down goals has been linked to a higher achievement rate. According to research, if you

Keeping your motivation up when you're working in an office is relatively easy. You need to get your work done before you can return to the comfort and privacy of home, so dragging your feet will only cause you further inconvenience. And with your colleagues surrounding and observing you, you’ll at once be reminded that you’re part of a team and driven to show productivity. For most of us, though, that office life is behind us: gone for the foreseeable future, at least, and plausibly gone for good. Unless you've been hibernating in a hermetically-sealed underground chamber since early 2020, you know perfectly well why it isn't advisable for people to gather in significant groups. Regardless of the broader consequences, remote working is the new normal. So how are you supposed to stay motivated when you’re working from home with your colleagues many miles away? How can you achieve focus when trying to get things done in an environment designed and built for comfort? It isn’t easy, but it can be done, and in this piece we’re going to set out five tips that can help you manage it. Let’s get started. Assemble a solid home office Slouching on the

I’ve said it multiple times, I’m not big on tech. I love technology, but I make a point to not let it invade all aspects of my life, and I only use 6 apps at most to keep track of my tasks and my success rate. One of these apps is TickTick, which I use for 3 things: Calendar Todo lists Habits The calendar feature in TickTick tops everything I’ve seen in the past, because it’s synced with your todo list. This means you can visualise each day either as a list or as an hourly calendar (or weekly, monthly…) The integration is seamless inside the app, and much better in my opinion than with other productivity apps. Todo lists work like in most task management apps. I love that you can drag and drop items with no due date straight into the calendar to organize everything on the spot. Again, I haven’t seen that done anywhere else. Finally, habits is a new one for me. Up until recently I always tracked my habits the old school way, with pen and paper in a journal. But this came with a couple of downsides: Even if it’s small, a journal is not

We’ve all been there, in search of that one app that is going to turn us from master procrastinators into the next Tim Ferris. I’ve tried my hand at different apps to get things done, but I’m always left wanting. My search has finally concluded. TickTick is my number 1 productivity app. My app of choice over the past year has been Notion, which upped my productivity game. I use it for project management and general organisational things but I don’t think it handles task management well. I also tried my hand at Things 3 and Todoist, but didn’t take to them.  I want something that works across all my devices – iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Watch, and also something which showed my calendars. This led me to my new number 1 productivity app: TickTick. What is TickTick? On the face of it, TickTick is another to-do list app. But as you start to use it you realise it can do a lot more than just manage your daily tasks: to-do list, built-in calendar, pomo timer, and habit tracker. It’s not perfect (which app is?) but it does some things better than the other apps I’ve mentioned, and does
