[Stick to it] 26 time management skills I want to know at the age of 20

A few days ago, I saw a time management slide from Etienne garbugli on slideshare, which was quite good and worth sharing. In addition, because slideshare is wall-mounted, it is stored and shared to the wall. If the translation is not in place, please point it out. Thank you.

01. There is alway time. Time is priorities. Time is common. Time first.

02. Days always fill up. There will always be time.

Only plan for 4-5 hours of real work per day. Only 4-5 hours are scheduled for real work every day. -- DDH, 37 Signals

03. Work more when you are in the zone. relax when you're not. When you are in the working state, do more work. If you are not in the State, take a good rest.

"Sometimes a few days are not working, and sometimes the job is busy for 12 hours every day, which is normal ." -- Alain Paquin

Note: If you areIn the zoneYou are happy or excited because you are doing something very skilfully and easily.

04. Respect your time and make it respected. Pay attention to your time and make it worth your attention.

"Your time is 1000 $/hour, and you need to act accordingly. Your time is 1000 USD/hour. You have to take action.

05. Stop multi-tasking. It merely kill your focus. do not perform multiple tasks at the same time. This will only consume attention.(Stay focused and work with one mind)

06. Set up a work routine and stick to it. Your body will adapt. Develop a work habit and persevere. Your body will adapt.

07. We're always more focused and productive with limited time. within a limited period of time, we are always very focused and efficient.

08. Work is the best way to get working. Start with short task to get the ball rolling. The best way to get a job is to work. (Divide the work to be done into multiple small tasks) start from a small task and let the whole work run.(The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step)

09. Work iteratively. expectation to do things perfectly are stifling. Iteration work. It is expected that the perfect union will be suffocated.

"Finishing work is better than finishing work perfectly. "Proverbs posted on the walls of Facebook's office. Incorrect, not doing, or done ).

10. More work hours doesn' t mean more productive. Use constraints as opportunities. The longer the work time, the higher the efficiency. Consider constraints as opportunities.

11. Separate brainless and strategic tasks to become more productive. Work by importance to improve efficiency.

Separate thinking and execution to execute faster and think better. Separate thinking and execution for faster execution and better thinking. -- Sol Tanguay, imarklab

12. Organize meetings early during the day. time leading up to an event is often wasted. Have a meeting and arrange it as soon as possible. The time spent preparing for meetings is often wasted.

13. Group meetings and communications (email or phone) to create blocks of uninterrupted work. Group meetings and communication (via email or phone) will produce discontinuous tasks.

Even a simple meeting will ruin an afternoon. Divide the afternoon into two small periods of time, so that nothing can be done. "-- Paul Graham.

14. Keep the same context throughout the day. switching between projects/clients is unproductive. Maintain the working environment throughout the day. It is not efficient to switch between different projects/customers.

 

15. Work around procrastination. Procrastinate between intense sprints of work (Pomodoro ).A delay is beyond work. There is a delay between intensive work. -- One of the ideas in the tomato Work Law is that the literal translation is quite awkward.RestBetween intense sprints of work. Or I understand it incorrectly or not properly.

16. "break the unreasonable down into little reasonable chunks. A big goal is only achieved when every little thing that you do everyday, gets you closer to that gloal. "splits unrealistic tasks into several reasonable parts. A big goal, as long as you do small things every day, you will be closer to that big goal. -- Escaping the 9 to 5

17. No two tasks ever hold the same importance. Always prioritize. Be really careful with to-do lists. No two tasks have the same priority. There will always be more important. Please carefully consider the agent list.

18. Always know one thing you really need to get done during the day. You must understand what you want to do during the day.

"Only ever work on the thing that will have the biggest impact" only does the thing with the greatest impact. -- Jason Cohen

19. Break tasks in to hour increments. Long tasks are hard to get into; feels like it all needs to get done.It is difficult to start a long task and divide the task by the same amount of time. As a result, small tasks will soon be completed.

20. Delegate and learn to make use of other people. Authorize and learn how to use people.// Literally, although the word "Exploitation" is a little strange, it is such a truth.

"If something can be done 80% as well by someone else, delegate !" If someone else can do the same thing, you can delegate it to others.

21. Turn the page on yesterday. Only ever think about today and tomorrow. turn yesterday over and only consider today and tomorrow.

"Yesterday's home runs don't win today's Games"

22. set deadlines for everything. Don't let tasks go on indefinitely. Set a deadline for everything. Do not let the work go without deadline.

23. Set end dates for intense or stressful activities. Everything ends at some point. Set the end time for fast or stressful tasks. To some extent, everything ends.

24. Always take notes. Make more remarks.

"Get a reminder app for everything. Do not trust your own brain for your memory"Install a Reminder application. There is a saying that good memory is not as good as bad writing..

25. write down anything that distracts you-Google searches, random thoughts, new ideas, whatever. the point is, if you write them down, they all stop bubbling up when you're in the zone. after you enter the (work) state, write down anything that disperses your attention, such as Google search terms, new ideas, and new ideas. If you write them down, they won't pop up.

26. Take Breaks. Sometimes. Please take a rest!
