📚Psychology of time, work and goals. Advice from the book “The art of laziness” and comments.
📎Plan your day.
📎Write your goals on paper.
📌Comment: it is good to write down both short-term goals (for a year) and long-term (for 3 and 5 years) + periodically review and edit them.
📎Follow the 80/20 rule. 20% of your work will bring you 80% of your results.
📌This is a fairly broad topic about delegation, priorities, the quality of work, etc.
📎Stop multitasking. Switching tasks significantly reduces your productivity.
Focus on one task at a time.
📌This is quite individual, so try different things, focus on your own feelings and do how you feel better.
📎Eliminate as many distractions as possible.
📎It is also good when you rest, not only when you work.
📎When you are tired, take a nap.
📌In my opinion, a very individual piece of advice that is not for everyone.
📎Learn to say “no”. You will never have enough time if you say “yes” to everything.
📌My favourite piece of advice, I agree with it 1000%.
📎Delegate all unimportant tasks.
📌But what is unimportant for you needs to be defined, and everyone has their own definition of “unimportant”.
📎Don’t wait for the perfect time. Anything that can be done in less than five minutes, do it now.
📌This also applies when starting something.
📎First do the task you hate.
📎Set deadlines; a task will never be completed without a deadline.
📎Stop focusing on things that are not helping you achieve your goals.
📌In my opinion, this is a rather vague piece of advice, but it’s worth thinking about.
📎Don’t become a perfectionist when you don’t have to.
📎Schedule a time when you are going to check your email.
📌The power is in the little things (it’s not only about email).
📎Avoid negative people at all costs.
📎Do what you love.
📌I would add that you should strive for this, but understand that even your favourite thing does not always brings only pleasure.
