Episode description

I keep hearing about all these tips and tricks on how to gain more time in your day. But how I see it, we all have 24 hours a day, and all we must do is manage ourselves better, not the time we have available.

You chose your working hours, but are you setting in place a process with workflows to boost your productivity?

In this episode, you will...

  • learn about the ways apps I use and helped me maximize my work and keep an eye on my freelance projects
  • understand the importance of managing your time as a freelancer
  • get actionable time management strategies for freelancers and business owners

Insights:

  • ''A crucial challenge in time management for freelancers is to master the art of dividing large projects into smaller tasks. That is why I felt to-do lists work great for me. I tried having it all written on paper but as I travel a lot, I started to use Google Keep for notetaking. Google Keep is a collaboration note-taking app that will synchronize all your notes where you have your Google account active: on your phone, your computer''
  • ''This might be too obvious, but you have to develop the ability to say ''no'' and balance out the number of projects you take.''

Tips:

  • Keep a to-do list so you know what you are working on
  • Choose monotasking instead of multitasking. Our brain is not wired to do more things at the same time.
  • Use classical time management techniques such as Pomodoro timers
  • Avoid distractions: put your phone in airplane mode and leave it in another room
  • Rank your tasks from the most important to the least important
  • Listen to this episode to get more actionable tips
