A job is a responsibility in that there are always lots of things that need done. Unfortunately, as a WAHM it's so easy to get sidetracked throughout the day and end up realizing that we didn't accomplish what we wanted to that day. Of course, it's important to stay on track but there are also some things that can help us do just that.WAHM Productivity Hack #1: Edit Your To-Do List

WAHM Productivity Hack #2: Recreate the Way You Do Things
Try another way of creating a to-do list. Whether you choose to use sticky notes, or you may like the Bloom daily planner planning system tear off to do pad, which really seems to have been designed for WAHMs.
Stop thinking and start doing. Challenge yourself to get everything done as quickly as possible. Of course, you don't want to stress yourself out over it though.
WAHM Productivity Hack #4: Cut the Dead Weight

The same is also true for those who aren't creating products - stop saying "yes" to everything so that you can focus on what's truly important.
WAHM Productivity Hack #5: Trust Yourself and Others
Remember. You're a person, not a machine. When you start feeling unproductive, get up and move around a bit. This will usually help. If you're still feeling stuck on certain tasks, delegate them to others or hire someone to do them for you so that you can focus on what's really important.
