Boost your productivity in 2024 with three easy tools

To be productive you need to have the right work attitude and at least be a bit motivated, however, there are tools that can simplify sticking to your schedule.

1. Wise Dash — A dashboard in your browser to keep you on track
Wise Dash is a browser extension that allows you to see your to do lists, calendar events, Jira, Trello and most likely every other app you can think of all in one spot. The best thing is, that it’s not on a website you have to open but on your new tab. Clicking a new tab to procrastinate watching YouTube? Get reminded instantly of what you told yourself you would be doing instead.

2. Todoist — A powerful and versatile to do list I’m a big fan of ticking off items of a list as it gives you that great little boost of feeling accomplishment. I often write lists on paper but then they get lost, a few items remain on a big list of ticked items and get forgotten or I simply have to rewrite reoccuring tasks. Todoist helps you with all of these problems and adds even more features. The win win is that Wise Dash lets you see your Todoist lists in your new tab to make it even more accessible.

3. Do not disturb — so simple, yet so powerful
It sounds silly and obvious, but how often do you put your devices into do not disturb mode and actually get some uninterrupted time to fully focus on a task?

Here is to a more productive 2024 — cheers!
