Results the game, Productivity the name

At the end of every day, there is this one thing I always want my inner voice to say, and it just sets a beautiful calm set in: “I think I was was pretty productive today” Bam!

this reminded me of an old @pmarca essay I had bookmarked / here goes: https://pmarchive.com/guide_to_personal_productivity.html… Had (what I then thought) some radical ideas

, but then I did pick some & they’ve been my friends forever..

2 favourites were:

working with a to-do list / I’ve played with lots of tools, recently transitioned from @Wunderlist to @MicrosoftToDo

getting out of the habit of answering email immediately, & focusing much more on “flow”

Now practising “no calls too” (ref article)

This is a from another referenced article:

“Structured Procrastination”

#ProducticityPorn101

Wasn’t quite convinced re “keeping time completely free & unbooked” from the original @pmarca article / and it was interesting to see him do a 180-flip on that one in the revered @sriramk chat recently (image ref)..

For me: Got to be a balance of “choke-by-calendar” & -time
