Confession Time: Shared Secrets That Will Keep You Glued to Your Screen!

To-Do List Triumph

One employee has mastered a unique productivity hack in the quest for workplace efficiency: retroactively adding completed tasks to their to-do list just to cross them off. This simple act provides an instant sense of accomplishment and boosts motivation.

Research shows that this technique counters the “Zeigarnik effect”—the psychological phenomenon where people remember uncompleted tasks better than completed ones—giving a feeling of closure and progress. Small actions create a significant psychological boost, making even the most mundane tasks feel like major victories. It’s a clever way to stay motivated and maintain a positive mindset in the daily grind of office life.
