Oh myyyy lawwwwwd is this post overdue! I cannot believe I haven’t written about this yet. Efficiency. SNOOOZEEEE… BORING! *You say.* I am going to have to respectfully disagree with you, because being efficient is probably the best skill of all time. WHY?? Well, because then you have time to fill your life with all the fabulous things you want in it!
There is a reason in lots of my food posts I talk about how quick and easy a meal is. Because I am the efficiency queen! ***Disclaimer: this is totally self proclaimed… just let me have it.. okay? haha 😛
When you are more efficient with your time, you can do all the things you want to do. Suddenly you will have time to see all your besties (because, we alllll need to see our besties on a regular basis! It is basically free therapy + the cost of wine LOL.) That hobby you wanted to take up? DONE. Want to get your Skinny Belle workout in? EASY. You now have time to do whatever your heart desires.
I am all about getting things done and not letting them dribble along so that I can get to my favourite things in life.
Another reason being efficient with our time is the BEST is because it will make us all queens. (Side note: I am over being a “boss.” I have officially decided that being a queen is far superior.) If you are efficient with your life and the things you wish to have in it, you will find yourself achieving all your goals faster than your ever thought possible. Is that the right path to being a queen? Yes. Yes it is.
Okay okay so enough of my blabber. Now that I have told you that being efficient will make you a queen, as well as make time for all your favourite things… HOW DO YOU DO IT?!
Here’s the skinny:
- Write it down!!! I like to make a “to do” list every night before I go to bed for the next day. This way, I can mentally be prepping myself for all the awesomeness I am about to fill my next day with.
- Take writing it down a step further… schedule your day! By this I mean write down about what time you will do each task throughout the day, and stick to it! If something is taking wayyy longer than necessary just move along and come back to it later.
- Get enough sleep! (<– post coming on this soon) Seriously this is so important. I am literally the worst when I don’t get enough sleep. So unproductive and just generally a grumpy-pants lol.Â
- Find the time of the day when you are typically the most productive, and capitalize on this! (<– business school moment lol.) For me, this is first thing in the morning. I am a freaking rockstar queen in the mornings! Come night time… things get super sketchy for me haha. I tried to send an email last night and I cant be sure if it actually made any sense…
Those are my favourite tips for being productive, and eventually becoming a queen of life.
So now, I want to hear from you guys! Do you want to see more posts like this one? What are your fave kind of posts I do?! Telll meee! I love to hear your feedback, so throw a comment in the comment box below. <3

Get enough sleep is also a top item on my schedule! Sometimes I’m successful and sometimes not 🙂

Getting enough sleep can for sure be tricky!
There’s always something magical when it comes to putting the pen to the paper. It makes that you are committed and ready to take action. Thank you for the reminders!
So true! Just writing it down actually makes me do it haha
I love your humor! Best tip hands down is sleep. You can not possibly focus if you did not have enough sleep. And the to do list. I love having a visual aide to keep me going. 🙂
Thank you Neyssa! <3
I’m big on to-do lists, but keep mine limited to only 6 things. The limit helps me really narrow down the imprrtnant things I want to invest my time in.
That’s a great point! Prioritizing your list can help too 🙂
Who doesn’t want this? How I wish I am as efficient as you are. I am struggling about being productive and efficient with my time. I know writing down will help but I still don’t do it. Lol…
Thanks for your tips, I hope I develop the discipline soon.
Good luck! Haha these tips really will help if you give them a try 🙂
Love the post, I’m always trying to be more organized…but every day the same..not enough time to do all!
It is such a good feeling to accomplish more in a day! You got this 🙂
Multitasking is my JAM! Laundry is going, dishes in the dishwasher, kids are in the tub, and I’m cleaning the bathroom while they bathe! I’m more productive at night- mornings are painful for me!
You are a freaking rockstar! Love it 😀
Great post!! Making a list and them a sub list of priorities has helped me a lot in staying on track in terms deadlines and blogging in general! Your tips are really helpful! Hope you are having a wonderful day!
