These 5 Reddit communities offer the productivity tips you need

Reddit is an online repository containing nearly endless information on every imaginable topic. So maybe there’s irony in me steering you there for tips on how to be more productive. But there are some very helpful subreddits that can help you stay motivated, disciplined, and efficient—all while saving a ton of time.

Here are five of the site’s very best productivity-boosting communities. Just try not to get sucked into the rest of Reddit while you’re there.

r/Productivity

The name should leave no doubt that the Productivity Subreddit has something valuable to offer. Join discussions on productivity hacks, share your insights, and learn from fellow Redditors: There are 2.4 million of them in this subreddit alone.

You’ll find self-help techniques, answers to common questions, organizational tools, advice about time management, and more—something for everyone.

r/ProductivityApps

There’s an endless parade of productivity apps out there, but it can be tough to cut the wheat from the chaff. Thankfully, the Productivity Apps Subreddit goes beyond just listing apps, instead offering up real reviews by real people to help you decide which ones are worth your time.

r/GetDisciplined

Answer the age-old question: Am I unproductive or just undisciplined? The Get Disciplined Subreddit can help you overcome the productivity struggles we all face. Seek advice, share your challenges, and find answers from an active community of more than 1.6 million members.

r/ZenHabits

If you’re constantly struggling to feel productive, you might just have too much going on. Dive into the world of minimalist living, mindfulness, and simplicity in the Zen Habits Subreddit, which encourages intentional choices and champions both physical and mental decluttering.
