Hey thanks for dropping by a great advice :) I understand the need for a strong structure, but don't you think depending upon the type of person you are you end up prioritizing one thing over the other ? For eg., You sit for a 30 minute reading time and you get a call from your friend with whom you hadn't spoken in a while. This might look like a one off scenario but in a day-to-day scenario these kinda interruptions and other distractions are unavoidable and they seem to quickly pile up. When you want to engage intellectually, sometimes you need a quiet space with least distractions. In spite of all these, some people are supercharged and they do seem to accomplish everything they want to ( intentionality converting into actions ). I want to move into that zone. But hey, i got your point and i will seriously consider your points and thanks for a great post :) |

- One, make sure not to let distractions one day ruin the next day. For example, today, I ended up having to help my wife with my daughter during 10 minutes of my workout time. No biggie. I shortened that to 20 minutes, and tomorrow, I'll get back on track with 30 minutes again.
- Two, do everything you can to isolate yourself during these times. Go into another room, turn off your phone, whatever. There's almost NOTHING that can't wait 30 minutes - making that time for yourself the most important thing in the world for that time is absolutely key. There's almost nothing that gets in the way of this time for me, except perhaps something related to my wife or daughter. All others wait. Remember, only you will protect that time for yourself, take it seriously!
Hope this helps!
