I aggressively use my calendar for everything. Every day is planned. This helps me see when i do or don't have free time, and, importantly, gives me no excuse to say "I didn't have the time!"

- textninja 4y agoModeration is key. On the one hand a high cadence plan/act/review cycle is rocket fuel for personal productivity, and nothing forces you to manage focus and flow as well as blocks in a calendar, but on the other hand you need to space things out, manage energy, and give yourself some room to breathe. Otherwise the parts of your brain that aren’t planning your every waking moment will eventually rebel.
