Working faster means completing more tasks and being more productive. Most days I enjoy my time at the workplace and I like spending some extra time on each task to re-check it and make sure that everything is correct.
On the very busy days, I have found that there is only one thing that helps me be more productive and get results quicker.
I'm being fully concentrated on my task. I am not chatting with coworkers or doing multiple tasks at the same time. I am focused on the work and let nothing irrelevant occupy my mind.
Is it easy for you to concentrate on a specific task until it is completed?
For me, it needs some extra effort but it's worth it.

It actually needs effort to be able to concentrate and get the job done. Some people can manage it better than others.
It must have been a valuable skill for a teacher, because you also have to teach the students how to stay focused on their studies.

@DianneN It's a challenging job in every aspect, teachers contribute in forming other people's characters.
I have a client who works with children with special needs and she says that it's a very demanding job. She is a very strong and caring woman.

At my job we have to learn how to multi-task and to do everything super quickly. It gets pretty hectic, but I've learned to focus and get things done as quickly as I can. :-)

Focusing while multi-tasking is difficult.
I've done it for a few months and it was taking all of my energy.
My mind was exhausted every day during that time period.
So I prefer to do one job at a time now.
You should take care of yourself and give your mind some time to rest when the job is so demanding.

@missjessicadawn Good suggestion, reading helps in relaxing the mind at the end of a demanding day.

I have been centering my focus only on what I am doing. I don't know if it is helping me get more done or not but it is improving the quality of what I am doing at least.

@jhechorain I totally agree. Additionally, I believe it helps us improve our skills gradually and broaden our level of knowledge.

Yes I think that it inspires more productivity that way too.
