Productivity & Time Management for Creatives

Praxisnahes Kursprojekt

Now that you’ve learned how to take control of your time, overcome distractions, and work in a way that supports your creativity — it’s time to put it into action.

Your class project is to create and share your own personalised productivity plan. It can be super simple — think of it as your creative workflow blueprint. You’ll combine the lessons and tools from the class to build a structure that works for you (not against you).

You can format your plan however you like — a written summary, a screenshot of your digital calendar, a photo of your workspace, or even a sketch or mind map.

What to Include in Your Project:

Here’s what you should create and share:

1. Your Weekly Goal(s)

• Choose 1–2 realistic goals for the week

• Example: “Design and schedule 3 Instagram posts” or “Write one blog draft”

2. Your Time Strategy

• Choose and try one technique:

  • Pomodoro

  • Time Blocking

  • Task Batching

• Briefly describe how you’re using it

3. Your Daily Routine or Flow

• What does a productive day or week look like for you?

• Example: Morning = Creative time / Afternoon = Admin / Evening = Rest

4. Workspace Snapshot

• Share a photo of your physical or digital workspace

• Show us how you’ve set it up to support your focus and flow

5. Optional Extras (Choose 1–2):

• Your favourite tool or app from the course

• A “Top 3 Priorities” list for one day

• A note about what’s changed since applying the lessons
