What is 100 days of productivity?

The study community talks about the #100daysofproductivity all the time and it’s actually a pretty cool concept and that’s why I will tell you what the 100 days of productivity are. I had the idea for this post after realizing how hard it is to find the posts of the original creator through Google and hope you will find your answers. I hope I can link more resources with time.

What is 100 days of productivity?

It’s pretty much what you would expect from the name of the challenge. You try to be productive for 100 days. We can do at least one productive thing each day and that’s where this is challenge is coming from. The challenge is made to improve your motivation and ability to just get things done.

What is counted as productive?

While some people only associate studying with this challenge I think you should also count work related things as something productive. Here is a list of common things that count as being productive:

• studying for 2 hours
• decluttering a part of your life
• organizing your paperwork
• inbox zero
• read a chapter in a book
• spring cleaning
• sorting out your digital life
• working on a project for an hour
• writing emails

These are (obviously) not the only productive things you can do. Anything that is an achievement for you can be part of this list.

Who can join?

It’s open to anyone. There are no requirements for joining the challenge. You don’t need to be in the study community to be a part of this project. Its whole purpose is just to motivate yourself and each other. I always love seeing people outside of the education system using it too.

When does it start?

Whenever you want. There is no set date for starting. A lot of people start on the first of the month or at the beginning of a new school year, but you can start in the middle of the week if you want to. I personally still prefer to start fresh on a Monday or something like that but if you are motivated to do it now you should start now.

How do I document my productivity?

Most people document their journey on their Instagram, Tumblr or even Twitter account. It’s the best way to connect with other people that are currently doing the challenge. But you can also do it for yourself without sharing it with the world. This can be a bit harder if you aren’t very good at holding yourself accountable.
I also suggest to track your project on paper or in a document.

Do I have to share content?

If you don’t want to share pictures, you don’t need to. It is a good idea to share if you have a study account, but if you don’t have one and you don’t want to share pictures of your journey, you really don’t need to. As long as you document your challenge on paper and stay on track you are doing the challenge right.

What do you think? Does the #100daysofproductivity challenge sound like something for you? We all are in a productivity rut from time to time and I’m sure it could help a lot of you to do this challenge.
