A lot of times players start building, and mid-way through, they run out of resources. Due to this, players have to stop and farm resources to continue again. They can make a list of items needed and collect them before starting any new project. It is a simple and easy way to stay efficient in Minecraft.

#4 - Light the nearby areas

Creepers do not care if a build has taken hours to form or just a few minutes. They will destroy everything in the blast radius. An easy way to protect a build is to light the nearby areas. No hostile mobs spawn in areas with light levels above seven.

While building, the last thing a player would want is a creeper explosion out of nowhere.

#3 - Test it out in a creative world

Many players have a separate world to test their builds, ideas, and color schemes to see how they will look and feel in Minecraft. Building things in survival takes hours of effort as players have to collect resources and then build them. They can create a world to test their builds before actually making it and thus, save time.
