But only at certain times

Drink caffeine four to six hours before bedtime.

That's how long it stays in your body after consumption and keeps you awake, stealing tomorrow's energy Открыть/Комментировать

2021-12-15 17:13:51 Don't waste time typing

Think about it, this is the thing we waste a lot of time on!

Both Android and iOS know how to expand pre-assigned abbreviations into words or even entire phrases.

You can use two or three characters to enter email addresses, card numbers, and other data that are long and complicated to type by hand.

Automate your routine for more interesting and important things Открыть/Комментировать

If you've become hostage to a situation where you don't have enough time to do important tasks, try the following method: write down the activities that are not useful!

This will help you optimize your work and get rid of the illusion of being busy.

2021-11-29 20:21:13 The 3R Rule

More often than not, learning a new habit is associated with difficulty and a desire to give up, BUT learn how to introduce a new action easily with the following rule:

Reminder + regime + reward = your new habit

The main thing is Regularity. Introduce quantity initially, then build up quality.

Don't burden yourself too much in the beginning: fifteen minutes a day will be enough to form a habit.

For example: Train yourself to learn two English words every day. Squat ten times every day. Your life will change just as you dreamed Открыть/Комментировать

2021-11-25 20:27:05 Permanent motivation

Motivation is a good, but not long-lasting help in business.

Here are a few rules to help catch up with that feeling

Set achievable goals so there is always progress.
Evaluate results and remember to reward yourself for them as often as possible. Открыть/Комментировать

2021-11-22 21:03:01 Creativity is the engine of progress

This is exactly the skill that will help you get out of any difficult situation.

A simple test for mental flexibility: take a sheet of paper and in a few minutes write down all the possible uses of socks.
How many ways can you think of and how similar are they to each other? You can do that with any object!
Apply the same to your problem: it could be an unacceptable decision, an unnerving event - something that needs to be solved soon. And write out as many possible solutions as you can.

That way you can find an unconventional and optimal solution to your problems Открыть/Комментировать

2021-11-19 19:00:08 Evenness in all things

Excessive stress is the cause of many of your mistakes

Scientists have found that overstress and burnout unfold according to the funnel principle

At first you are full of energy and bravely load yourself with tasks. This is where the funnel begins to swirl — you're loaded with work tasks, and the activities that fill you with energy are no longer there. The result: overwork and lack of energy.

And at the narrow edge of the funnel, work has already superseded everything you need up to and including sleep. This is how exhaustion begins and the risk of depression increases dramatically.

Conclusion: work, but don't skip a walk or your favorite activity. Combined with a proper daily routine and a healthy diet, your life will play with new bright colors Открыть/Комментировать

2021-11-16 20:21:25 Method 25/5

The method is ideal for prolonged and productive work for those who work more than 4 hours a day.

The idea is to divide the work into two parts:

25 minutes, consists of continuous work.
a break for 5-7 minutes to drink water, eat something, or stretch.

You'll need an alarm clock or a special "Plantie" program

Form the habit of being productive for just 25 minutes — this will enable you to solve your problems quickly and not overwork your brain at the expense of frequent interruptions.

It's important: try not to reply to messages in between work, as this can be time-consuming. Открыть/Комментировать

2021-11-12 19:01:06 Is it worth using many techniques for productivity?

More does not mean better, cause mostly, they only take time
And it should be the other way around!

Consider the Inbox Zero system. At first glance it seems useful, as its purpose is to make sure that in the evening there are no emails left in the inbox. But to do this, you have to spend a lot of time creating a complicated label system and checking your inbox during the day

TOTAL: You've got your mail in order, but you're no closer to achieving your important goals.

Limit yourself to a few apps that work best for you.
The main thing is to prioritize. And based on your objectives, pick the right apps and techniques. Give up things that don't help you reach your goals, even if they are on everyone's lips.

That’s your personal result. And only YOU decide how to achieve it Открыть/Комментировать
