New year, new you, right? Sometimes that can be easier said than done, as setting resolutions and goals can become overwhelming! When you set a huge goal for yourself, how do you actually go about tackling it and turning your dream into real life?
Here are 4 major tips for you to make 2020 your most productive and successful year yet!
1) Break Your Day Up Into Blocks
Nothing is worse than waking up to a million emails and feeling overwhelmed before you even make it to the office. It can be really easy to stress out over figuring out where to even start, especially if you have other tasks looming over you.
The best way to alleviate this: break your day up into blocks. Tackle emails the first hour of the day, then spend the next two hours on your top-priority task, and so on.
Structuring out your day this way helps break big, daunting tasks into more manageable chunks and will help you stay productive all day long.
2) Take An Online Course To Further Your Education
Gone are the days that you need to physically go to a campus to further your education; these days, you can sign up for online courses and binge them like you would your favorite Netflix show!
There are online courses for just about anything you are interested in learning more about, including our own course for entrepreneurs and business owners, “How To Build & Sell Your Business In 5 Years”. Whether you’re a new business owner or dreaming of one day launching your own company, our course has so many valuable resources for any business-minded woman.
Or maybe you have dreams of making it as a fashion stylist? We have a course for that, too!

3) Use Apps To Schedule & Automate Social Media Posts
As a social media-forward company, we know how time-consuming planning and posting can be, but these days, a strong social media plan is crucial to a business or personal brand’s success.
We recommend utilizing an app like Planoly or Hootsuite to help plan out your social media content. Some of these apps can even post automatically to social media sites, or send you a reminder to posting on time is made easy!
4) Delineate Between Work & Home Spaces
If you work from home, one of the biggest ways to increase productivity is to create clear work spaces. Whether it’s a home office or a spot at your kitchen island, find a place where you can sit with your computer and get work done. Additionally, be sure to dress up (that means no pajamas or sweatpants) when you are ready to start your work so that your body and mind can process that it’s time for business!
