How To Get More Done?

How much can we produce in a day’s time? If we have a new project, how long will it take us to complete it? Some projects are open ended and some have exact steps.

My day consists of scheduled tasks, open recreation time, and then the projects on which I am working. My projects require more time than I have in a month, so they are long procedures into which I try to plug a few cogs regularly.

How much I get done in a day is a matter of how much energy I have and how long I can keep up the passion for a task during the day.  Because I don’t have a real job, my time is my own.

My mental processing is important. I want as much ram available as possible and as few system leaks as possible. The more energy I have focused, the longer I can work and be productive. I have very little tedious work and mostly creative work. I need maximum balanced mental energy.

I have tried to minimize the daily drains. I don’t watch TV. I only read the news a few times a week or when I am really done for the day. I don’t procrastinate on paying bills or taking care of tasks. I try to keep my relationships on sound footing. I eat very healthy and get regular exercise.

I get up at 5 a.m. when the world is quiet and there is little to distract me. I stretch so that my heart is pumping and I have my coffee.  Now the world is my oyster.  I focus on the most creative demands first. As the day proceeds I try to do the most demanding tasks in order until I am working on the to do’s that don’t require as much energy.
