| The TRUTH is... - There are a lot of different systems, you need to find one that works for you. - Nearly everyone struggles with trying to focus when there are so many things demanding our attention, prioritizing is what helps you focus on what's most important. - You're human and there will always the temptation to switch to the new "app" because somehow a new company has figured out how to get things done. In reality, it's always a struggle. - Reading a new article about how to focus is like reading a book of how to run a 4 minute mile. You need to get out there and struggle and find what works for you. - AVOID the online BS that people tell you about how their day is so planned out. 4am wake up, 4:30am workout, 5am get ready, 6am study (it's mostly nonsense). Life is too unpredictable to be able to follow that 100% and if you plan your life like that you'll be let down when reality strikes and you miss something on your scheduled because a friend/family/coworker needed help with x. How do I manage my life? One word, Todoist. - Make projects, add things to those projects with a date that you'd like each done and give it a priority.
- Look at the Today screen and do the highest priority things first. What benefit does this system add? - You'll always know what's most important and where to spend your attention. |
