I wish I knew this life hack sooner…

It’s called The Four Quarters Method.

And once you learn it, you’ll skyrocket your consistency.

Whenever I used to hit a snag in my day, I’d think: “I’ll wait until tomorrow for a fresh start.”

It’s how watching one Netflix show spirals into binging a whole season. Or how an unhealthy snack can turn into an unplanned cheat day.

Sound familiar?

Then I came across The Four Quarters Method (courtesy of @gretchenrubin).

The big idea: What if you viewed your life like a game—with four daily quarters?

You see, most people only play 1-2 solid quarters daily.

Because they “quit” when things don’t go exactly to plan.

Imagine if you pushed that daily number to 3-4 well-lived quarters.

You’d close the gap between where you are and where you want to be—physically, financially, emotionally, etc.—up to 400% more quickly.

Three steps to execute The Four Quarters Method:

Step 1: Split your day into four sections.

Assuming you get 8 hours of sleep, you have 16 waking hours each day.

So divide those 16 waking hours into quarters.

For example, if you wake up at 6am, here’s how that looks:

Quarter 1 (Morning): 6am-10am
Quarter 2 (Midday): 10am-2pm
Quarter 3 (Afternoon): 2pm-6pm
Quarter 4 (Evening): 6pm-10pm

Step 2: Consider what you’d like to do in your quarters.

Potential Ideas:

Q1: Morning routine, deep work session
Q2: Healthy lunch, power nap, exercise
Q3: Meetings, admin tasks
Q4: Quality time with family, self-care

Everyone’s situation is different.

What’s important is to be intentional with your time.

Step 3: Journal on your daily execution.

In the evening, reflect on how you performed in each quarter.

Did you live intentionally?

Maybe you had a bad quarter but bounced back in the next one.

Celebrate that! Those turnarounds are life-changing.

—

Know this:

Our lives will never be perfect, but they can be extraordinary.

The next time you hit a rough patch in your day…don’t wait for a fresh start tomorrow.

There’s another quarter right around the corner.

Who’s in?

Have you ever wondered about how the night sky looked to Vincent Van Gogh when he painted ‘Starry Night'?

This is an homage to the artist, but also a hypothetic view of the light pollution free sky of 1889 near Saint-Rémy-de-Provenc

Love this intimate image of Italian conservator Lorenza D’Alessandro delicately restoring mural of Nefertari at her 1,200 BC tomb. Nefertari was favoured consort of Ramesses II, who wrote “My love is unique, no one can rival her…Just by passing, she has stolen away my heart”
