This article was a fun read as it playfully poked holes in some conventional wisdom but I'm not sure I'm left with coherent advice. Deep work doesn't matter? Working in 15 minute bursts is ok? Save rewarding work for after routine? Or maybe match it to my circadian rhythms? Work on what I love? Have a maker schedule?

Maybe the best takeaway is that there isn't really a single coherent ruleset for productivity...

I think it is something along the lines of...

- don't care about time management so much

- care about motivation (think about what can be done with the result)

- choose the right time to have the mental state you require to focus on the task at hand

Somehow your comment reminds me of Mozart. There have been years where he didn’t compose much.

The human mind is an amazing and complicated thing. I think we’re only beginning to scratch at the surface of truly unlocking its abilities. Seems like a lot of these “rules” are simply cargo cult like remedies.
