Wasting time is one of the biggest reasons you aren't more successful right now. Review how you've spent your time today, and you'll likely find plenty of unproductive time that you may not have even spent relaxing or preparing to be productive later.

If science isn't your thing, use the advice of Mark Twain to hack your day for success.
Whatever your schedule allows, make sure you do not neglect your body's need to get away for a moment. Go to the bathroom, get a drink of water, take a walk outside, or do something fun. You'll find your ability to focus and work increases the more you implement this routine.
