Lately, there are times when I feel super unproductive, but I’m starting to understand it’s all in the mindset. If I keep myself busy doing something, such as wake up each morning and take my time to clean every corner of my house, I wouldn’t have those feelings.
A few weeks ago, my father knew I was unproductive and lazy; I have just recovered from a mental illness. He created a daily schedule for me to stay on track. Daily, I’m required to do the laundry, sweep, and mop floors, wipe the dust off of furnitures and tables, wipe kitchen counters, clean the microwave, and water plants. Those were the only tasks he expected from me.
To add to my daily routine, I write every day. I believe writing every day improves my writing skills. If I’m not writing, I would be reading articles and blogs. I also read a book. I just realized there are interesting and boring books. Some writings catch my attention and there are also some that don’t.
The best way to stay productive daily is to do housework, write blogs and read. Whether my writings appeal to people or not, I still write; I’m doing this to improve my skills. My suggestion is to not worry about getting traffic to your website. It’s nice to get views on social media, but we shouldn’t put too much focus on it; we would feel overwhelmed and discouraged.
I believe having a clean and dust free space helps us to work better; we don’t have to be distracted by a dirty, disorganized or dusty space. I focus better when my house is clean and organized, so I always clean before I sit down to write a blog.
Every time I finish a piece of writing, I feel accomplished. I try not to think if I will attract an audience. Everyone wants views, likes and follows; we shouldn’t expect too much, instead focus on producing valuable and helpful content.
It’s also good to take small breaks in between every hour to walk around, stretch and get a drink. Sometimes I sit and relax for a little while and not do anything.
I hope you get something from reading this blog. Let me know what you think!
