Get Things Done

~2 mins read

Define what to work on and why
Start small
Plan
Prioritize important over urgent
Eliminate
Delegate
Get feedback early and often
Set up small checkpoints
Know your brains rhythm, if it peaks in the morning, then spare the most important work for the morning
Start the day by working on your top goals
If less than 2 mins, do it right away
Draw a deadline
Batch work
Use checklists
Flow happens when the task slightly exceeds your skill level
Prepared, focused, short meetings
Rely on habits and systems
Ignore sunk costs
Work short, focused intervals and rest
Say no more often
Write more so you don’t have to remember everything
Save some easy tasks for low-motivation periods
End the day with a cliffhanger so it’s easier to start again
Stay professional, responsible and reliable.
Everything looks like a failure in the middle, keep going
