I think that rainy weather works best. βοΈπ
But another good tip is to hit the gym in the morning ποΈββοΈ and prepare the list of tasks (that you scheduled before). π
It is easier to stick to the schedule when you have "a line-up" or a list of activities that have to be done.
What works for you?

I try to set up my work environment to be cozy and comfortable. Over the weekend, when I have to work,
1. Put together a ToDo list in the early morning
2.Hit the road to nearby beach or park
3. Set up a day camp
4. Work at full strength till the dinner BBQ on a beach/park

For me weekends are more productive than weekdays.

My to-do lists are up to date and ready to go. Weekdays and weekends make no difference. I always consult my to-dos regardless π

@busmark_w_nika Hats off to you for being so passionate. Does your family complain about your workload :)
I live in PG 500 km away from my home. I share my room with 3 other people. The good thing is during weekend my roommate love being outside and I enjoy being alone in room. So work till they return.
Inner drive + coffee! π
WisdomPlan
A work plan that includes 2-3 breaks and some form of reward upon completion works best for me! In the weekend morning, I typically set up a plan for myself that incorporates 2-3 breaks dedicated to fun and relaxation activities (I love music, so I often practice singing or guitar during these times) π΅. At the end of the day, if I manage to accomplish my plan, I reward myself. This could involve eating some junk food (I like potato chips lol) π€£, purchasing an item that has been in my Amazon cart for a while, or planning a fancy dinner for the upcoming week. For example, I am quite overloaded preparing our product launch tomorrow (Sunday), so I've told myself that after the launch I will go to watch a musical on Monday and I will buy a front-row ticket if the launch goes very well lol.

@busmark_w_nika Haha I think I am not ready for publishing them yet. More practice needed. But I've set a goal to publish my first YT or TikTok video by the end of this year! (And I've started buying necessary equipment these days π€). When I post them, I will go back to this post and update with everyone lol~
Btw, I am launching my product -- WisdomPlan today on Product Hunt! π It is the first-of-its-kind AI-powered personalized learning platform designed for adult learners to learn future-ready skills!

Thank you so much!
When I work on the weekend, I start early in the morning.
This way, I have the whole day ahead of me.
I always make a list of tasks I need to do. It helps me stay focused and organized.
In the late afternoon, I finish my work.
That's because I spend time with my wife afterward.
Being with her is a big motivation for me.
It makes me want to get my work done faster.
Rainy weather is a good one. I sleep longer than normal and do a relaxed breakfast. (I'm not a morning person :D). Then I start working for a couple of hours and do a late lunch. After lunch I stop working till Monday, to take care of my work life balance and collect energy for the upcoming week.
@busmark_w_nika yes, sure. Otherwise it's impossible for myself to have a balance between work and family/friends.
Maintaining productivity while working on weekends involves a few key strategies:
Set Clear Goals: Define what you want to accomplish during the weekend. Having specific goals helps keep you focused and motivated.
Prioritize Tasks: Identify the most important tasks that need to be completed and tackle them first. Prioritization ensures that you're making the most of your time.
Time Management: Allocate time slots for each task and stick to them as much as possible. Use techniques like the Pomodoro Technique to break work into intervals with short breaks in between.
Minimize Distractions: Create a conducive work environment by minimizing distractions. This might mean working in a quiet space, turning off notifications, or using website blockers to avoid temptations like social media.
Take Breaks: Schedule regular breaks to rest and recharge. Stepping away from work periodically can actually improve focus and productivity when you return.
Stay Healthy: Don't neglect your physical and mental well-being. Make time for exercise, healthy meals, and relaxation to ensure you have the energy and stamina to stay productive.
Reward Yourself: Celebrate small victories and milestones to stay motivated. Rewarding yourself after completing tasks can help maintain momentum throughout the weekend.
By incorporating these strategies into your weekend work routine, you can boost productivity while still maintaining a healthy work-life balance.
