7 Important Productivity Habits My Parents Taught Me
7 Important Productivity Habits My Parents Taught Me:
My childhood was a very regular one: I hung around with my friends, went to school and had a lot of activities going on on a daily basis.
When I look at my childhood, I’m able to see the productivity lessons my parents taught me. Although I had a hard time following them when I was a kid, and I can now truly value them as the cornerstones of my productivity.
1. Take notes
I got this skill from my father and I still use it on a daily basis.
In order to remember something important – for example after having a conversation – I’ll write down notes so that I won’t forget what I was supposed to do afterwards.
If I don’t have pen and paper available, I’ll put a reminder about the matter on my mobile phone’s calendar about it.
Also, if I’m at my computer, I keep my Notepad open for note taking. Eventually, I’ll move my notes (especially the ones that require action) to my task management software for further processing.
2. Put things back where they belong
This is a simple, yet effective habit that I picked up from my mom.
Whenever I use an item, I make sure to put it back where it belongs.
For instance, if need some tax papers and I have to get my file folder out of the closet (where it’s normally kept), I make sure to put it back there after I have processed the documents. That way things are not floating around and our home looks cleaner and more organized.
3. Don’t leave things until to the last minute
My mom was teaching me about the Parkinson’s Law without even knowing it
Many times, I’d have homework that I had started to do the night before the deadline – even if I had many weeks to do them. And since my mom wanted me to take care of my homework well, she reminded me about my behaviour many times when I was a kid.
Eventually I learned my lesson and I didn’t leave things up to the last minute. That took away the stress of trying to do my homework in a panic – the night before the deadline.
If you are leaving things to the last minute, change your behaviour and act as fast as possible after you have learned about the task. It’ll save you from unnecessary stress later.
4. Pack your stuff the night before
Small preparations the night before helps a lot the next morning.
My parents always told me to pack my backpack in advance, so that everything was ready for the next morning and things would roll out as smoothly as possible after waking up.
I’m now 41 and I’m still using this same small – yet effective – habit on a daily basis. It takes me only 10 minutes to pack my stuff and this quick preparation speeds up my morning a lot.
5. Take good care of your stuff
Whenever you buy new stuff; be sure to take care of it too.
I have learned this lesson especially from my dad and I appreciate this habit a lot. His message was that when you keep good care of your stuff, it won’t break down so easily and the item “lives longer” that way.
For instance, when you have a car, make sure you clean it on a frequent basis. If you tend to forget to do it, make a recurring calendar reservation (with an alarm) about it on your mobile phone.
This way you’ll remember to take care of the matter on a frequent basis and your car stays clean.
6. The better you communicate, the better you’ll be understood
Yet another great lesson that I learned from my dad.
You see, the better communicator you are, more likely that other person understands what you are saying and this prevents false assumptions.
That’s why he mentioned many times, that I should pay attention to my vocal output and I should be as clear as possible.
Whenever you need to communicate clearly, make sure that the other person understood what you just said. You do this by asking if he/she got your message and that both of you are on the same page.
This clears the confusion and no time is wasted on taking the wrong action.
7. Napping is a great way to restart your day
Thank you mom for teaching me about this wonderful habit!
Although she didn’t specifically insist that I should take naps, I just followed her example and I became a napper too.
I still use this habit frequently and I have found it to be a powerful way of jump-starting my afternoon. Sometimes even 15 minutes of napping will do wonders for my productivity. It’s definitely a short time well spent
You should consider napping too, if you are feeling tired and your energy levels are low. Just make sure that you don’t sleep any longer than 20 minutes, because otherwise you’ll feel groggy when you wake up.
Lying down for a moment (for instance after getting back home from work) is a great way to have a productive evening. And if you haven’t napped before, give it a try and see how it works out for you.
Conclusion
As a kid, I wasn’t too excited about these productivity lessons and I had some hard time following them. Only afterwards have I have started to appreciate them and they are now a fundamental part of my everyday life.
We have a son who is still a very little, but I have decided to pass these lessons on to him as well when he grows up. That way he can better prepare for certain situations in his life later on.

Mobile learning apps connect with youth
Mobile learning apps connect with youth:
Sometimes it seems as though everywhere you look, people are using their phones. But what are they using them for? The Pew Internet Research Project reports that teen texting volume is up in 2012 while the frequency of voice calling is down. About three-quarters (77%) of teens have a cell phone; one in four say they own smartphones.
American teens on average are sending or receiving 3,339 texts a month, or more than six for every hour they're awake, according to a Nielsen Company report: Calling Yesterday, Texting Today, Using Apps Tomorrow. Although texting is at an all-time high, the largest area of growth was in teen data usage, from 14 MB to 62 MB per month. Almost half of teens surveyed reported using an app 10 times per day -- more frequently than general grooming and eating.
So how are you connecting with this mobile youth society? Do you text? Do you push
meeting reminders? Do you have mobile apps that support the topic you are teaching while encouraging youth to build mastery in areas of interest? A recent presentation by Barbara Chamberlin, Extension instructional design and educational media specialist , New Mexico State University states that technology is changing the way our clientele work, think and play. We need to remember our basic learning objectives and then take those objectives into a mobile learning environment.
Healthy living, the programming area that interests me the most, seems to be a popular supported learning objective with mobile learning apps. However, where some apps get complicated, the Eat & Move-O-Matic will help you learn about the foods you eat and how they help fuel your body for your favorite activities. The Eat & Move-O-Matic was developed to support the National 4-H "Youth Voice: Youth Choice" program, and offers a simple and fun way to engage kids and adults alike in learning about the relationship between nutrition and exercise. The Presidential Active Lifestyle Award + Challenge encourages physical activity and building healthy eating habits with a online tracking of activity.
Games can make you happier. In a previous blog entry, Trudy Dunham challenged us to take advantage of games to promote youth learning and development. I believe that mobile learning apps can go a step further and encourage "anytime, anywhere" learning, as well as reach underserved children, because they are relatively low-cost.
Do you see the benefits of mobile learning apps? Do you have a favorite health app? How have you used any mobile learning apps to support your youth development learning environments?
