The 1 Productivity Hack you know but you don't use.
Ooo another productivity hack—amazing, right?
But seriously, this one isn’t new. You’ve known it your whole life. From your first day of school to the day you retire, it’s been there.
The hack? → Time Boxing.
Yes, that timetable your teacher gave you on the second day of school. Remember those blocks of math, English, art, gym? You didn’t question it—you just followed it. Even when you didn’t feel like it, you finished the day. Every single day.
That’s the secret: it just works.
How to use it as an adult
Stop chasing new apps or complex productivity systems. Just open Google Calendar and recreate that school-day rhythm.
Block time for your key tasks, one after another. Treat each block as sacred—no multitasking, no guessing what’s next.
That’s how you get back your focus, consistency, and peace of mind.
One more thing. Enable the notifications too.
