10. Time Management

"The secret to doing good research is to always be a little underemployed; you waste years by not being able to waste hours." — Amos Tversky • Opposite of "traction" is "distraction". • Making time to make time - weekly reflection on your previous week, be deliberate about your upcoming week. • Tracking and awareness is the first step to acknowledging and improving. • How I've been using a calendar instead of a todo list for a few weeks. • Pomodoro technique – try it for the most challenging tasks! • Meetings can be incredibly disruptive – I share a few tips on how to be more careful with meeting time management. • Enable "Do Not Disturb" on macOS and iOS. • Having Slack and your email inbox open throughout the day can be incredibly distracting. Try to open them at fixed times and batch up this work. Actions / take aways • Take time each week to reflect, and map your time. Book in 15 minutes this week. • Try using a calendar instead of your todo list to plan your tasks. • Keep meetings to fixed days in the week – like Mondays and Tuesdays, to free up your other days for deeper work. • Wrap up meetings with 5 minute breaks in between to refresh and re-energise. • Close your email and only open it at fixed times in the day. • Enable "Do Not Disturb" on your devices. • Don’t be afraid to pause, and make time for you. You can’t spend every waking hour being productive - you will eventually crash. But we each have different limits – so try to find what works best for you.
