    I block my number time AND use to-do lists.
    I block my work time, so I can guarantee an ammount of hours of work. I also indicate for each block what I'm going to be working on.
    Then for each type of work I have a to-do list. So when the time comes, I look at it and tackle as many items in the list as I can. It also allows me to pick tasks depending on how time demanding they are and how I'm feeling at that point.
    If I feel like I can tackle one big demanding task, I go for it. If not I pick a lot of smaller and easier things that equally need to get done.

    Looking forward to the insomnia podcast. I’ve learned so much on that subject already but need to keep at it. Just learned the word adenosine today. Maybe I missed it with you talking about why one should wait 45 minutes before coffee (I know you just put out an episode on coffee, haven’t watched yet) but I couldn’t stick with waiting for 45 minutes before not knowing a good reason to do that. I will try it again tomorrow and will look into the coffee episode soon, one thing at a time. Wake up, walk the dogs and then have coffee 45 minutes after I wake.❤Love all you do❤btw this clip was great, I often listened to full videos when I am gardening,sometimes walking…love the clips❤

    Talk to a middle income guy who has 5+ Kids and a high stress job! That would be a cool conversation about time management and stress.
    Just like a lot of science out there, these people have unique easy jobs, are successful, or don't have many children. Many of these people are not the average folks.
    Sure the theories and concepts are interesting...but these are all within perfect environments. An environment where they can focus on themselves and their needs without worrying about too many other things.
    Just not reality. It's why science is also changing.

    @dariuszhorvath-krol8540 27 днів тому +1

    I think the biggest problem is for people to get started, and then stay consistent - to have that kind of discipline ...
    I think key to doing that is very tiny amounts of time and slowly making it a habit by trying to do some thing like for one minute, every day, for 30 minutes, and very slowly increase that time; once we are adults, it is extremely difficult to change habits - I based this upon teaching dance for 19 years and dancing for 24 years.
    Just personal experience and some thing my math professor/ businessman student taught me.

    • @NoUserNamesLeft001
      @NoUserNamesLeft001 27 днів тому +30

      Well I think there is a little more too it (though I hear your point). I have heard this kind of philosophy a lot before in various time management conversations. The difference is from to do list to schedule (note, a to do list is not a schedule). Instead of having a quota of items, you have a quota of time. A quota of time is very easy to be successful, a quota of tasks is much more likely to be a failure, which can burn you out.

      💯% a lot of exercise science I’ve seen lately indicates that intense work out close to bed time can negatively affect sleep. I’ve experienced it as well. Late morning to late afternoon seems to be the optimal work out window if you can swing it.

      That's a really interesting point, although he does mention that it's not so bad for him anymore. Perhaps it was just that body regulation phase that was keeping him more awake. Based on what I know about him and his previous books, I'm sort of leaning towards the idea that he stays in an Alpha State and probably should have done more relaxation and meditation prior to bedtime.
