I've seen that time-boxing is a great technique to do the same. Simple, clear and keeps you on your toes!

@rohan_singhvi1 Yess me too, this works every time and keeps me focused!

@rohan_singhvi1 what is time-boxing
Sébastien Devaleriola
@nitin_joshi Timeboxing simply means that you open your calendar and enter a block of time that you'll spend on a certain task in the future. Instead of working on the task until it's done, you proactively decide how much time you'll spend on it and when (and even where). That way you limit yourself to a time, and not freely run arrond a task until it’s done. This can either be for yourself in smaller tasks or for entire teams in sprints (Scrum). It helps keep wasted time to a minimum as everyone knows what they have to do, when and for how long. Hope it helps, otherwise let me know.

@sebastien_devaleriola okay! now I understand this...thank you for explaining this
Sébastien Devaleriola
@nitin_joshi Glad to hear! Are you working with sprint and development projects as well?

Waking up early, yoga, meditation & philosophy helps
@yogi_rahul love the yoga and meditation to get you started

I have a "structured" day. So every task and break is on a flexible schedule for the day. So to keep my focus straight I switch between tasks, breaks. e. g. developing, productHunt, meeting, lunch, developing... This always helps me recover my focus in developing. Mostly for me, it's harder to make a break instead of staying focused.

I find breaking tasks into bite-sized chunks and taking short breaks works wonders. What's your go-to method?

Prioritize. Take breaks. Recharge. Rinse and repeat.
@brenkinfa I like your bullet point response! Straight to the point!

Hey there! Your approach to managing time and staying productive during development sprints sounds really effective. I'm looking forward to seeing your product launch soon. Do you have any advice for someone like me who's about to launch their own product? Also, I'd love to get your feedback once my product is live.

I make sure to plan down all my to-dos and plan my day in advance. It's my secret sauce for keeping everything in order and hitting those deadlines like a champ. It's like having a roadmap that guides me through the day, making sure I stay on track during those intense development sprints. This routine not only amps up my productivity but also helps me focus on the important stuff. It's like having a game plan for success!

I prioritize tasks based on importance, set clear goals for each sprint, and use tools like Kanban boards to track progress. Regular communication with the team ensures alignment and quick issue resolution.
@vivek_equp is Kanban like notion?

How do I manage my time? Oh boy! The truth is right now (as I am working on my Everything site called Nova Informer), I work over 18 hours a day. Those 18 hours are spent writing, designing, tweaking things and so on and so forth. At this rate, I am going to crash big time 😔

@donalexandrarita i feel you (
@donalexandrarita you work 18 hours a day? Wow that’s dedication my friend. I hope you also take some free time to prevent burnout
Swati Parida
I prioritize tasks using a time-blocking method, focusing on high-impact activities first. Regular breaks and setting realistic goals help maintain productivity during development sprints.
@swati_parida time blocking is the way to go. Keeps you focused.
