Here are my (Bernard Marr) top ten time management and anti-procrastination tips to improve your working day, which I cover in more detail in my new book ‘Future Skills: The 20 Skills And Competencies Everyone Needs To Succeed In A Digital World’:

2. Ruthlessly prioritize your time.

3. Set a time limit for each task.

4. Find your productive hours.

5. Don’t multitask.

6. Eliminate distractions.

7. Learn to say no.

8. Weigh up the consequences of doing something versus not doing it.

9. Understand that sometimes – just sometimes – procrastination can be a good thing.

10. Finally, if you find yourself not wanting to do many of the tasks associated with your to-do list, then maybe it's time to switch jobs! Seriously, ask yourself whether it's really the right job for you because it's not "normal" to dislike your job or feel constantly demotivated.
