Oh yes a certain points I want to share after a good amount of experimentation to boost my productivity & have a work life balance. This gives me 6 to 8 hours to myself (other than office) to do anything I want. Which is more than what anyone gets:
Use pomodoro technique (25min work, 5 min get up/walk/fetch & drink water)
Keep a physical diary to jot down tasks for the day. Work on only 2-3 tasks. Cut them off one by one
have lunch on time & take a walk just after it. Invest no more than 1 or 1.5 hr in this.
keep a study session at the end of your working time. I keep 30-45mins at 5pm for reading/studying something. Helps in your growth.
Prepare for next day. Write down your priorities for tomorrow.
(IMPORTANT) Go for some blood pumping physical activity like gym, running, playing whatever. This will refresh your body’s oxygen levels, keep you physically healthy & mentally sane. Do this for an hour.
Take a warm shower & spend time with family/friends. Will keep you mentally & emotionally healthy. Also it is important to spend time with them.
have dinner, walk if you wish, dim the lights so that melatonin (sleep hormone) generation begins, read something lite like fiction, do your night routine, shut the lights & sleep.
Wake up early, freshen up, exercise a little (I run/walk for 30 mins to completely wake myself up), Study or do whatever. Go about your morning routine.
Start your office on time.
