A recent study by When Is Good, a meeting planner website, has found out that the time when most people are available for a work meeting is 3pm on a Tuesday afternoon. They put this down to many factors – the motivation once you’ve coped with the weekend backlog on Monday, the timing fitting in with working hours (meaning there is less danger of it over-running) and the chance to get down to work in the morning is not affected. But what is the time when you’re most productive?
I tend to find that in the middle of the week, when the weekend is in sight and I’m actually well into the work-time frame of mind, is my best period. I can get loads of work done and outside interference seems to have less of an effect. In this respect, I’ve learnt to plan around it: get the tough stuff done mid-week, the easy stuff on a Monday or Friday and everything else can fit in as and when time is free.
Realising your productivity changes over a traditional work-week is an important step to realising your full potential. Trying to undertake tasks you know will be difficult or long-winded when you’ve barely got any energy left on a Friday afternoon is sure to fail, while doing little in the time when you are most productive is essentially wasting your time when it could be spent better somewhere else.
So, sit down and have a think – are you productive right now? If not, when are you? It could be midnight on a Saturday night, or 8am on a Monday, it really doesn’t matter. Just as long as you fit in your activities around it, you may well find your overall productivity rising. One example of this is fitting in your exercise or down-time with when you aren’t typically productive, meaning you save your best time for things which matter.
