I started the week off by trying to avoid hard work. I was then set some hard work, and hardly worked on it for… 11 hours. Total. All week.
What can I change? There’s a ton of stuff I can stop doing: frittering time away on youtube/online dating/fake news/podcasts/blogs – ie. noise. I’ll keep all that shit confined to my wind-down period, so it doesn’t infiltrate the work day.
I’ll ensure I leave at least two hours for the wind-down period before bed, so sleep isn’t disturbed by work (a guy waking up mustn’t have his sleep disturbed!).
I can focus on a maximum of two or three tasks for the day; not scattershot all over the agenda.
If/when I fail to grow on a given day, I can document, publish, and learn from it.
PS. Those 11 hours spent working – while arduous – were the most enlivening I can recall in recent memory.
[…] wasted a ton of time reading nonsense instead of working last week. It’s encouraging to see that I’m not alone in having to re-re-reread lots of the stuff […]
