The common man is not concerned about the passage of time, the man of talent is driven by it.
Arthur Schopenhauer (1788–1860) German Philosopher
Techniques
Which timebox and habits techniques did you try?
Meditation: I downloaded the Headspace app and I plan to try this for the next 10 days.
What did you find interesting?
Flow: Mihály Csíkszentmihályi’s work formed part of my Master’s Thesis. There are things that teachers and workers can do to engender flow states.
What worked for you?
Something that resonated with me was the idea that it's easier to create a new habit when we do it at the same time each day. That has worked for me in the past. I've also been reading about the importance of having a routine every morning to set yourself up for the day. Obviously, each person’s routine will differ, depending on their circumstances. This is something I want to work on.
Which will you experiment further with?
The Pomodoro Technique: I’d heard of this before and I plan to start using it. Also, I liked Fogg’s tiny habits. I plan to watch/read the material there again and see if I can make use of some of those ideas.
