MUST READ: The most 35 Clever life hacks, you should learn to increase your productivity.

Being more productive is beneficial in your life for many reasons. You get more done, it can increase your creativity and your self-image changes when you accomplish a lot.

Here I collected 35 Clever life hacks from the internet, which will help you to increase your productivity for sure.

1. Learn how to learn … note, in all likelihood, most of you have not mastered this one yet. And when you think you have it down, a new technology will come along to add access to more information. None-the-less, you will spend your life on this one, so you might as well start as soon as possible.

2. Always say less than necessary: When you are trying to impress people with words, the more you say, the more common you appear, and the less in control. The more you say, the more likely you are to say something foolish. You can impress people by saying less; it makes you more mysterious.

3. Ever faced the question, “Do you have any questions for us” at the end of a job interview?
   Say yes. Question the panel, “Is there anything in my profile that concerns you?” and Always keep a glass of water in front of you in an interview. That way, if you are stuck in a question, you can easily excuse yourself with a sip from that glass.

4. Want to know if someone is giving you their correct phone number?
   Repeat the number out loud, incorrectly. If they correct you, their number is genuine.

5. Set your alarm face down and out of your reach to ensure you must get out of bed to turn it off.

6. Book meetings for 10 minutes shorter than normal. For example, if it’s normally a 30 minutes meeting, book it for 20 minutes. That gives you 10 minutes of breathing room to use the restroom, meditate, catch up on emails and so on!

7. Speaking of meetings, try meeting with people while going for a walk. People will often be more relaxed and open when they’re not inside a 5x5 conference room.

8. Swallow the frog technique. Don’t look at your email in the morning. Instead, do your hardest task first thing and you’ll be much more productive.

9. Music while you work. Listening to ambient music or music that fades into the background helps boost creativity and productivity.

10. The best way to win arguments on the internet is to ignore them.

11. Writing book summaries are a great way to retain what you’ve read.

12. Become a mind-reader. If you want to get a gist of what somebody is thinking to copy their body language. You’ll start feeling their emotions and get a better view of what they’re thinking.

13. If you want to wake up earlier, start by eating your breakfast earlier. Your circadian rhythm is affected by food.

14. Master the art of being quiet. You learn more and, when done right, come off as incredibly charming.

15. In your resume, use words and phrases that closely align to the job posting.

16. Include an executive summary at the top of your resume. This is the Cliff Notes version - if the recruiter doesn’t read your entire resume, they get the most important details here.

17. Use GIFs and funny videos as a way to keep in touch with friends and family. Sure, a phone call is great, but so are little gestures that make people laugh and smile. I’ll give you one of my secrets: I make lip sync music videos on Snapchat for the people close to me and we have a singing battle. It’s brought countless laughs and everyone a little bit closer. One song at a time.

18. Get rid of paper documents by taking photos of it and uploading it to the cloud (I use Box). Now you don’t have to worry about finding a piece of paper later.

19. iPhone battery running low? Turn it to lower power mode. This has saved me a few times.

20. Color code your keys so you know what each key is used for. You can either paint it with nail polish or buy a plastic color cover.
    Put a rubber band around a jar lid to make it easier to open. You can also use duct tape (put half on the lid and then pull).

21. When you hit turbulence during a flight, wiggle the bottom half of your body around and it’ll reduce the effect. I’ve done this many times and it works.

22. Have luggage that looks the same as everyone else’s? Tie a bow around it with a really uncommon color (such as lime green).
    Not sure how to negotiate your salary? Look up comparable positions on Glassdoor to find out what the market rate is.

23. Batch your emails. Instead of reacting instantly to each email that comes in, wait for an extended period of time, review the larger batch of emails and prioritize responding to them from there.

24. Stressed out? Use the 10 years test: Will this matter in 10 hours? 10 days? 10 years? Probably not. This usually helps to put things in perspective.

25. Learn to change subjects when needed. If someone is feeling down and wants you to listen and to empathize, you should absolutel1. y do that. But also know there are moments where it would help to change the subject to something more positive and happy to lift them from their doldrums. Learn to do that and you can change someone’s life.

26. Host a dinner party every month. It’s an easy way to keep in touch with a bigger group of friends.

27. Use a T-shirt folder. It will save you a lot of time and help you get organized. Not sure what that is? Watch this: youtu.be/vRtwq_XZEZM

28. Speaking of getting organized, declutter your place one a year. If something you own doesn’t create happiness in your life, donate it and let someone put it to good use!

29. Want to eat healthily but hate eating salads? (I know, it’s a lot of chewing.) Buy a high-end blender like a Nutribullet or Vitamix and blend your fruits and vegetables. I have one for breakfast almost every day and crave them if I don’t have it for a while.

30. Freeze your fruits and vegetables. This way you won’t let food spoil and you can pop it in the blender for an ice cold smoothie.

31. If you’re not good at remembering names, repeat it when you’re greeting them for the first time.

32. When you’re networking for business, go with a colleague or friend. That way you can start off every conversation by introducing your friend, and that gives you something to chat about.

33. Is someone eating your delicious sandwich when you put it into the company refrigerator? Color the plastic bag or a Tupperware with a dark green marker so that it looks like mold. I’m pretty sure no one will eat your food again.

34. Have a small garage and afraid of hitting the wall in front of you when you park it? Hang a tennis ball from the ceiling so that your windshield bumps into it as a signal to stop.

35. Sleep in your workout gear. That way you can roll out of bed and go straight into a morning workout.
