How to Stay on Schedule Even When You Go Off Track - Nir&Far
from Nir And Far: Business, Behaviour and the Brain · host Nir Eyal
To-do lists are supposed to keep us on task. It turns out they do the opposite. I’ve written about the many reasons why. To regain focus and be more productive, it’s far better to create a weekly schedule using a technique called “timeboxing“. You can’t say you got distracted unless you know what you got distracted from. That is, without knowing how you want to spend your time, there’s no way you’ll spend it intentionally.
