Practical
Tips for Productive Living
So let’s get back to the basics, shall we? Let’s make
things simple again. It’s easy. Here are 60 ways to do just that:
Life is not
complex. We are complex. Life is simple,
and the simple thing is the right thing.
- Oscar Wilde
and the simple thing is the right thing.

1. Don’t try to read other people’s minds. Don’t make
other people try to read yours. Communicate.
2. Be polite, but don’t try to be friends with everyone around
you. Instead, spend time nurturing your relationships with the people who
matter most to you.
3. Your health is your life, keep up with it. Get an
annual physical check-up.
4. Live below your means. Don’t buy stuff you don’t
need. Always sleep on big purchases. Create a budget and savings
plan and stick to both of them.
5. Get enough sleep every night. An exhausted mind is
rarely productive.
6. Get up 30 minutes earlier so you don’t have to rush
around like a mad man. That 30 minutes will help you avoid speeding
tickets, tardiness, and other unnecessary headaches.
7. Get off your high horse, talk it out, shake hands or hug, and
move on.
8. Don’t waste your time on jealously. The only person
you’re competing against is yourself.
9. Surround yourself with people who fill your gaps. Let
them do the stuff they’re better at so you can do the stuff you’re better at.
10. Organize your living space and working space. Read
David Allen’s bookGetting Things Done for some practical organizational guidance.
11. Get rid of stuff you don’t use.
12. Ask someone if you aren’t sure.
13. Spend a little time now learning a time-saving trick or
shortcut that you can use over and over again in the future.
14. Don’t try to please everyone. Just do what you know is
right.
15. Don’t drink alcohol or consume recreational drugs when you’re
mad or sad. Take a jog instead.
16. Be sure to pay your bills on time.
17. Fill up your gas tank on the way home, not in the morning
when you’re in a hurry.
18. Use technology to automate tasks.
19. Handle important two-minute tasks immediately.
20. Relocate closer to your place of employment.
21. Don’t steal.
22. Always be honest with yourself and others.
23. Say “I love you” to your loved ones as often as possible.
24. Single-task. Do one thing at a time and give it all you
got.
25. Finish one project before you start another.
26. Be yourself.
27. When traveling, pack light. Don’t bring it unless you
absolutely must.
28. Clean up after yourself. Don’t put it off until later.
29. Learn to cook, and cook.
30. Make a weekly (healthy) menu, and shop for only the items you
need.
31. Consider buying and cooking food in bulk. If you make a
large portion of something on Sunday, you can eat leftovers several times
during the week without spending more time cooking.
32. Stay out of other people’s drama. And don’t needlessly
create your own.
33. Buy things with cash.
34. Maintain your car, home, and other personal belongings you
rely on.
35. Smile often, even to complete strangers.
36. If you hate doing it, stop it.

to your grandfather and the same level of patience you would have with your
baby brother.
38. Apologize when you should.
39. Write things down.
40. Be curious. Don’t be scared to learn something new.
41. Explore new ideas and opportunities often.
42. Don’t be shy. Network with people. Meet new
people.
43. Don’t worry too much about what other people think about you.
44. Spend time with nice people who are smart, driven, and
likeminded.
45. Don’t text and drive. Don’t drink and drive.
46. Drink water when you’re thirsty.
47. Don’t eat when you’re bored. Eat when you’re hungry.
48. Exercise every day. Simply take a long, relaxing walk
or commit 30 minutes to an at-home exercise program like the P90X workout.
49. Let go of things you can’t change. Concentrate on
things you can.
50. Find hard work you actually enjoy doing.
51. Realize that the harder you work, the luckier you will
become.
52. Follow your heart. Don’t waste your life fulfilling
someone else’s dreams and desires.
53. Set priorities for yourself and act accordingly.
54. Take it slow and add up all your small victories.
55. However good or bad a situation is now, it will change.
Accept this simple fact.
56. Excel at what you do. Otherwise you’ll just frustrate
yourself.
57. Mature, but don’t grow up too fast.
58. Realize that you’re never quite as right as you think you
are.

60. Make mistakes, learn from them, laugh about them, and move
along.
