Personally, I suck at efficiency (doing things quickly). Here’s my coping mechanism and process for maximizing efficacy (doing the right things):

1) Wake up at least 1 hour before you have to be at a computer screen. E-mail is the mind killer.

2) Make a cup of tea (I like pu-erh) and sit down with a pen/pencil and paper.

3) Write down the 3-5 things—and no more—that are making you most anxious or uncomfortable. They’re often things that have been punted from one day’s to-do list to the next, to the next, to the next, and so on. Most important usually = most uncomfortable, with some chance of rejection or conflict.

4) For each item, ask yourself:

– “If this were the only thing I accomplished today, would I be satisfied with my day?”

– “Will moving this forward make all the other to-do’s unimportant or easier to knock off later?”

5) Look only at the items you’ve answered “yes” to for at least one of these questions.

6) Block out at least 2-3 hours to focus on ONE of them for today. Let the rest of the urgent but less important stuff slide. It will still be there tomorrow.

7) TO BE CLEAR: Block out at least 2-3 HOURS to focus on ONE of them for today. This is ONE BLOCK OF TIME. Cobbling together 10 minutes here and there to add up to 120 minutes does not work.

8) If you get distracted or start procrastinating, don’t freak out and downward spiral; just gently come back to your ONE to-do.

Congratulations! That’s it.

This is the only way I can create big outcomes despite my never-ending impulse to procrastinate, nap, and otherwise fritter away my days with bullshit.

If I have 10 important things to do in a day, it’s 100% certain nothing important will get done that day. On the other hand, I can usually handle 1 must-do item and block out my lesser behaviors for 2-3 hours a day.

Pas le temps de lire ce foutu rapport du GIEC ?

Ca tombe bien, j'ai préparé 5 infographies, toutes basées sur le dernier rapport du GIEC (groupe 1, sorti le 9 août) !

Il y'en a pour tous les goûts et tous les niveaux.

Today, I just want to be grateful for the gift of life. No requests, no complaints, just grateful to be alive.

OUT: Bob Dylan just released the ultra-rare 1970 ‘George Harrison Sessions’ to avoid the recordings entering the public domain in Europe.
The pair recorded “If Not For You” as a duet, which they later rehearsed for 1971’s iconic Concert For Bangladesh.

"Well,fuck them if they think they can keep electricity out of here,I'll do it.”
Bob Dylan was irritated by condescending remarks that Alan Lomax made about the Paul Butterfield Blues Band & decided to play an electric set at the 1965 Newport Folk Festival.https://t.co/WKoy7KsN2a
