Behaviors, situations, and environmental elements that make us waste our valuable time are usually called time thieves.

Being a productive entrepreneur is not easy. There are so many distractions around that can hinder progress and goals. However, things are not so hopeless. There are many tools and techniques you can use to increase your productivity.

Traditional management systems, both personal and for business, are based on the assignment of priority to each of the projects or actions to be carried out. It’s so common that, to a greater or lesser extent, we are all accustomed to working that way.

If you have observed very well, distractions can come in various ways while you are tending to a particular assignment. It is so bad that even when you are bound by a fast-approaching deadline, you find yourself succumbing to some form of distraction. For example, you are in the middle of doing an article, your phone is nearby and then a notification on Facebook pops up letting you know it is a close friend’s wedding anniversary. You get tempted to send a quick message and before you know it, picture reminders of years past start popping up also and you remember you were working after an hour of being on Facebook!

You know what it’s like when you walk into a place, be it a store, restaurant, or coffee shop, and “the energy just isn’t right?” You can’t put your finger on it, but it’s all just wrong. You can’t relax, focus on what you are supposed to be doing in there, and can’t wait to get out of there.
