Smart Work VS Hard Work

●  Multitasking is a myth anyway. Human minds are not capable of doing multiple things at a time.

●  Improve concentration, and try to pursue focused work and complete tasks one at a time. (Avoid spending time on social media and navigating from links while at work)

●  Join a 5am club (choose your time) and plan your day. Planning makes things better.

●  Avoid using sticky notes, it will distract from you from works. Note down all your to-dos to ‘any. do’ app (use any to-do apps) and put reminders, and leave your head free.

●  Make a library for reusable components and use it wisely on critical works.
