In this episode, we’re going to share with you our top productivity tips and things we’ve learned during our time full-time making. Whether you're working on small projects or large ones, these tips can help you stay focused, organised, and productive, and help you get the most out of your workshop time.
Productivity Tips:
1. Plan Ahead and Make a List of Tasks
Having a clear idea of what needs to be done can help you stay focused and avoid wasting time on unnecessary tasks.
2. Keep Your Workshop Organised
A cluttered workshop can be a major productivity killer. Take the time to organise your tools, materials, and workspaces to make it easier to find what you need and get things done.
3. Invest in Quality Tools
Cheap, low-quality tools can be frustrating to use and can break easily, costing you time and money in the long run. Investing in high-quality tools can save you time and hassle in the long run.
4. Use Jigs
Jigs can help you work more accurately and efficiently by providing a consistent and repeatable way to perform tasks.
5. Take Breaks
It can be tempting to push yourself to work as much as possible, but taking regular breaks can actually help you stay focused and be more productive.
6. Avoid Distractions
Eliminating distractions like phones, emails, and social media can help you stay focused on your work and get more done.
7. Set Goals and Track Your Progress
Setting goals and tracking your progress can help you stay motivated and on track, and can help you identify areas where you can improve your productivity.
