Startups are hard work; I can often find myself working until 2 or 3 a.m several nights in a row, then getting up to come in at 10 a.m. and start all over again. I’m quite a night owl and get a lot of my work done late at night, so getting up early can be tough. Unfortunately, the last Behind the Launch episode documented a day that I wasn’t able to be contacted at 8 a.m.. On top of my long days, I'm ADHD, so it can be hard to keep it together. Fortunately, there are a number of gadgets and tools that I (and potentially you) employ to organize work routines more effectively. Here are my top recommendations. What is your favorite tool to use for productivity? Let us know in the comments.
