content research

Now i have decided that i want to create my book as a guid that is full of helpful tips to be productive and help get more work done efficiently it is important that i collect a wide range of research of methods and also collect my own ideas of how to improve productivity and stop procrastination.

below re a few of the websites that i have looked at to gain an idea of that the content could include:

https://www.entrepreneur.com/article/242359

http://www.snacknation.com/blog/increase-productivity-at-work/

http://www.robinsharma.com/blog/09/become-the-most-productive-person-you-know/

few other websites i looked at:

http://www.lifehack.org/articles/productivity/top-10-tips-for-productivity.html

http://www.timemanagementchef.com/productivity-tips/

http://www.inc.com/sujan-patel/30-quick-tips-for-becoming-more-productive.html

my own ideas on improving productivity:

1. buy nice stationary

2. get enough sleep

3. plan ahead

4. take regular breaks 

5. break big tasks up 

now i have research different way i then collected the most important methods and created a list including the ones that i already knew:

create an organised work space

dont allow distractions, turn off facebook etc

create a to do list in rank order, cross off and re draft

adopt a pma

buy nice stationary

get enough sleep

take regular breaks

time table work

stick to time limits 

create mind maps

listen to music

keep a note book, write down everything

question everything

do your dreaded task first

if you find it boring make it fun, be creative

break big tasks up

change your location 

stuck? start the next task, but remember never stop with it unfinished

reward yourself after finishing

regular exercise

healthy diet

log out of social media

coffee

I then decided to put these into 3 different subheadings so that there would be different stages and chapters to the book, the first would be 'making a start' that would contain al the steps that prepare you for the work and are the starting steps. Second would be 'tackling a task' which would contain the more intense steps that are important to carry out the task successfully, and then finally a chapter for the less popular methods that are just as important such and no social media, having exercise and eating good.

My next step in research will be to research books that are on the same topic as mind giving tips for productivity so that i can identify what tone of voice i want to have for my book and what style i need to create it in for it to be successful.
