Feeling Productive? If not, check out this 30-day Productivity Challenge to get inspired.
Hello Friends! Did you enjoy your long weekend? We enjoyed getting together with friends for birthday and life celebrations. I can definitely get used to three day weekends and to be honest, it can be hard for me to transition to work mode after an especially enjoyable weekend. I find it especially helpful to get inspired for the work week with a definite plan and a little productivity challenge.
By planning the goals for the week and scheduling time blocks for tasks, I find that making the transition to the work week is much more enjoyable than winging it. Using a bullet journal for planning and allowing at least 20 minutes to look at the week as a new beginning helps me have a better perspective and ignite a positive attitude.
Did you know that based on a study by workflow management company Redbooth, Mondays are when we are most productive? I know for me, it takes a cup of coffee and a good hour to get into the work week.
If you find you need a little kick start, we’ve got a free printable 30 productivity challenge below. Hopefully, you will find that some of the challenges will help you focus and make the most of your time.
You can start anytime and find the particular suggestions that work best for you. I myself do most of these things out of habit and honestly, repeating these until they become a habit is the best way to incorporate these suggestions into your life.

Wonderful ideas! I really need to stop multi-tasking…
Raquel says
It’s tricky – it sounds like a good thing, but it really isn’t.
Tamara says
I need this more than ever! Although our long weekend is more like a long week!
I tend to get inundated with work before the new year and then the quiet times get me really lazy and unproductive.
Raquel says
Glad you found it helpful! Distractions are the worst for productivity!

I’m trying to make myself more productive on my days off. It’s nice to have the house to myself, but there is so much I should be doing but often just want to go back to bed after everyone leaves! Thanks for sharing at #HomeMattersParty
