Are you feeling unmotivated?
Or are you looking for ways to manage your time better?
These are common problems that professionals and students from around the world have faced.
What better place to learn how to be efficient than from one of the top 10 economic powerhouses of the world, Japan?
Japan has set global standards for quality, precision, and work ethic.
They are known to have a culture of strict dedication to one’s work, whether it be in a corporate or academic setting.
If there’s any country that knows a thing or two about how to be more productive, it’s from the land of the rising sun.
Boost your efficiency with these 13 tips from how the Japanese are so productive.
1. Use A Kanban Board
Kanban is a Japanese term meaning “visual signal.”
It was invented as a way to visualize the status of a certain product as it moves along the production pipeline.

It could include writing in a journal, going for a walk or a jog, reading, even maybe tidying up your room.
