@Planning gtd productivity lifehacks prioritizing the zone

My Blog Literally hundreds of articles.
Methods I don’t recommend!

- Prioritizing by importance is a cause of bad time management, not a cure for it!
- all your other “urgent priorities” are only urgent because you have left them to the last minute. And why have you left them to the last minute? - because you are prioritizing by urgency, that’s why!
- One of the most basic distinctions to make in our lives is the difference between action and activity.
- Action is what achieves our goals, moves our business and personal lives forward, produces what we want out of life and actually gets the job done. It is immensely rewarding but is also very likely to be difficult and challenging.
- Activity is all the things we fill our lives with in order to avoid taking action. Strangely enough activity often looks better than action to our colleagues or even to ourselves.
- Unfortunately thinking often appears to be “lazy”, compared to making phone calls, dealing with email, attending meetings and generally rushing around.
- Thinking should be your number one top priority action
- You should be concentrating on the things only you can do

Geek To Live: The art of the doable to-do list

@Planning gtd productivity doable to-do-list boss assistant

Think of your to-do list as an instruction set your Boss self gives your Assistant self.
Think of your to-do list as an instruction set your Boss self gives your Assistant self. Like a computer program, if the instructions are clear, specific, and easily executed, you're golden. If not, you'll get undesirable results, like fear, procrastination and self-loathing.

- At any point during your work day you are in one of two modes: thinking mode (that's you with the Boss hat on) and action mode (that's you with the Personal Assistant hat on.) When a project or task comes up, the steps you've got to take start to form in your mind. Now you're in thinking/Boss mode - the guy/gal who gives the orders. Your to-do list is a collection of those orders, which your Assistant personality will later pick up and do.
- So when you're wearing your Boss hat, it's up to you to write down the instructions in such a way that your Assistant self can just do them without having to think. GTDer Michael Buffington called this "writing tasks that you can follow as if you're a robot."
- The Getting Things Done productivity system defines projects differently from tasks: projects have multiple sub-actions.
- your to-do list is not your project list.
- If you've got a multi-action task - that is, a project - only keep its next sequential action on your to-do list.
- Use specific, active verbs.
- Prioritize.
- Purge.
